That's the easiest answer right? Bootleg.
No, I'm thinking it's American and international. Not sure which is which.

The same Chinese people who make the USA product box up and make the rest of the world's product. There's only one factory homie. But you may be right, only you can tell once you have the figures in hand. Plus, the international idea makes sense in that the gun is removed from the foot soldier on the one box. The shades of green and orange on the box is suppose to be checked and tested for quality control and to meet Nickalodean's color hue spec sheet. When they're off that much it could have sat in front of a window, not checked at the factory and the printer was low, or it was made at an unofficial factory-bootleg. Just my guesses, I'm no expert at all by any means.

I bm noticed the same thing with my 1:4 scale turtles; Donatello's box has the same paler logo. I assumed it was due to running changes, as all those that followed had the brighter logo. Not a bootleg though, as purchased through a legitimate source.

Yeah, not a bootleg... legitimate source, legitimate price.

Good to know this is normal. Thanks.

The 2-Pack Collection Shredder was used in the beginning of the first episode of 10th season for Robot Chicken.

I was just wondering about this the other day, what android krang would look like.
Do u think it's possible to fit krang from wave 1 into the body or would that be out of scale? Kinda weird if krang becomes smaller in android body.

Why does Krang’s Android Body have a honey-nut squash shaped head? I don’t remember seeing that in the cartoon.

Yeah, I saw that too. But he doesn't have a neck so I think that bottom third of the head is all ball joint. That's going to look a little strange but I'm optimistic.

The face of Krang’s Android Body turns. The bottom third is his head should not be a ball joint.

The ball will allow his head to turn, tilt, swivel, etc. What are you proposing they do instead?

The Krang’s Android Body in the original cartoon could never turn, tilt, swivel, or etc.. It stayed still all throughout the series.

I’m not proposing they do anything to it, but something propelled me into pointing out the inaccuracy of the sculpt. I guess I thought I was helping, but this 2-pack collection set will turn out the way it does.

I think the cavity or at least the window/opening will be small so that the same Krang can be used.

I imagine it will fit as that is one less item to sculpt new.

Krang wouldn’t be a build a figure right? Has NECA ever done those?
