I've been looking for this guy for about a year now. This is why I love 20 cent listing day on eBay!!! You just don't know what's going to surface....

Congrats, that is a great example. One of the few Type 1 WGSH figures I actually really want.

Yikes!! I never knew of the difference untill now.. I guess you learn something new from time to time.. which is cool... Quickly moved him
from out of the open guarding a photo to a glass display cabinet.

Nice snag, by the way!!

Is there any other way you can tell that it's Type 1 by looking at the picture?

The wrists and ankles look the same.

I guess they would have to mention it in the listing like this one...

This picture in the Museum Gallery is the most obvious difference

The other wrist is also not articulated. The auction photo also shows the leg splay common to T-1's, and the AJ like thin upper torso leading to the neck.
