Post by Deleted on Jul 4, 2014 7:43:08 GMT -5

I'd like to offer my services by maintaining a constantly updated list of confirmed variants for the Mattel series of figures.

My goal with this thread is to become a sticky thread and be a definitive list.

I'd like to provide pictures for confirmation.

With that said.... please begin and I'll update this post as they come in with formatting and such to give a better idea.

Thanks.

I am copying images I find on this site and through Google image search and placing them into a dedicated Imgur account for archival purposes.
Please contact me if you don't want me using your images.

Please contact me if you can provide better quality images.

Drew E8 Kozlov E5 Swagger E5 Cody E13 Cena E7 HHH E2 - memory is foggy on this but I think some had water bottle and some didn't - this would need to be confirmed before you included it.

Okay, changing the location of accessories in a package is not a variant. Variants are changes with the actual figure that are known at the time of the release if the figure. The only ones that were like that were e4 Jericho and Morrison and the e10 DiBiase

Technically wm xxx michaels was a variant for more people later found it at walmart with stomach hair. That one I wasn't sure whether or not to put it as a variant.
Here's elite 4 kane with variant:

It's an accesory variant, and this is the same deal with Rsc kane

Accessory variant? E4 Kane came with a towel and chains as did the rsc Kane plus a mask. There isn't a variant with its accessories.

Also Mattel straight out said hbk was a running change

If you're talking about the loop over his neck, thy all have it. It belongs around his waist. It's not a variant, the second photo has the waist loop in the wrong place, that's all

According to RSC, Rikishi is a variant and it was an accessory location change. Not saying who's right or wrong. Simply just saying..

It's the same. One has it on his head and the other around his waist.
