Okay - hands up everyone who knew there were two versions of this soldier?

Please do tell, Count

I am always fascinated by such trivia as this.

I just bought/ received the new collectors guide by Axel.
And apparently there are two versions:
Version 1; Produced only in 2004 and with a insignia on the hat
Version 2; Produced from 2004 - 2006 and without a insignia on the hat.

That means there's another one I have to go after ...

I will have to check mine,

I do know that the 1st one I got does have an Insignia, which I think is  2 swords crossed, I wonder if they are all the same?

I certainly hope that boxes display this difference.
I just checked the ones in my collectioni and the boxes indicate an insignia in the hat

If I interpret the Guide correctly; it should be on the box as well.

Now, I need to find some without the insignia for my collection  ;)

That should be easier then finding one with insignia... according to collector's guide.

Good luck hunting!

Thats good to know.
I guess its good that I grab up specials as soon as I can, to keep my collection complete.

Since I dont have Axel's newest edition, this is something I am glad you shared with us.
Otherwise, I would never have known

Thank you, Mark (or is it Marc - I am really bad at remembering those things)
