While I was looking around at Hasbrotoyshop.com I noticed that they listed the new (AFA) single pack of tripwire as having desert element number one or number two on the case. Yojoe didn't list this as a variant. Does anyone know if this is a variant, and if so, what distinguishes it?

You know how they re-released Cobra Commander with the vile of red crystals, well my guess is this will be Tripwire with the yellow crystals - all part of the "build a weather dominator" set up.

I'm thinking this is more like the Doc figure that had either a 1 or 2 on the flare gun depending on which mold it was pulled from. With the 1 or 2 on his mine case depending on the mold.

Likely a mold number variation. One canister will have a small 1 on it, the other will have a small 2. It's not a very exciting variation.

So in essence he either comes with a tube of either #1 or #2... :monocle: .

I can understand it being #1. The color's right.

But if it's #2, Ol' Tormod should see a gastro-intestinal specialist... like soon!

I'm guessing it's either a number on there somewhere, or it could be something minor like a change to the texture of the crystals. Here's the one I have.
