As the archive says, the white and black glove versions are trademark variants, but there is a little difference regarding
the logos and chest pieces
One has a larger logo , more black on the chest and less prominent facial hair.
The other is, well...........different

Does the guy on the right have thicker soles? The legs are the same mould as the Shadow, so I suspect he's a wave 2 release.

The one on the left seems to have better detail on the zipper as well..But I perfer the less heavy looking faceal hair on the right hand side one..it looks a lot less comical..less like "The Hooded Claw" or the guy in this videohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DasikXHVqY

The guy on the right looks as though he has the new hands too, far superior to the older figures.

There is a funny story behind all that, all the early figures were nearly molded with platforms. When the test shots came back they all had huge soles and a last minute tool change adjusted to help 'pack' the cavity, but in some cases the adjustment was considered too much, and were adjusted again at a later date to make them thicker;

I refuse to look any more. I'm not seeing those legs at all. Its a cruel trick by Indiana Suspenders and Baron Forumblood. OK, I peeked. But only for a second.

Truly.

Honest.

Aw sh*t, all right. C'MON DAVE, C'MON, C'MON.
