Klaatu Head Color Variarion?
« on: November 20, 2003, 07:35 PM »
While looking over some Klaatus (I have 3), the palace version, I noticed that one had a different color head. I just won this on ebay for next to nothing and was just curious since I am collecting variations right now. I have never seen this before. Anyone else? Instead of a dark green, it is a grey-blue color. The hands remain green though. It is the HK version. It is definitely not from fading or sunlight. And it is definitely not green. Can anyone else verify having one of these? Thanks in advance.

Give me a day or two.  I need to get my camera back from a friend.  Pic to follow.

There is color differences  with the Klaatu figure.

I have it with the face painted / helmet molded, and also with the face molded / helmet painted.

Hope this helps.

is the the "grey-blue" color of the head bright or kinda dull? I vaguely recall hearing this mentioned on scum, but couldn't find anything on it.

It is dull.  Wish I had my camera to take a snap.  You really have to have to look closely.  I imagine that a pic may not do justice identifying the difference.  But when put side to side with the normal version it is quite obvious.
