    Neckplug difference?

    I was wondering if anyone could answer my question? What's the difference between a T1 and T2 neckplug?

    I don't think there is a difference between them ...... I do believe that there is some minor differences between a few type 1 and type 2 heads ..... Like Spiderman ....... also a Fist Fighter neck plug is just slightly fatter than a regular neck plug ...... Hope that helps you ..... Roy

      Thanks, that did help out! I didn't know that about the Fist Fighter heads.

      As for the other neckplugs, on another thread others were saying that something was obvious on a head because it was a T2 neckplug, and not a T1, so I'm just curious what the difference is. :P

        The type-two neck plug is very short. The type-one is very long.

        Respectively, the type-two heads are somewhat tan. The type-one is pale fleshtone.

        [Additional info: As I noted in my research on the SI's, they are a type one head with some of the red pigment missing causing a bit of a mocha color to them, but not tan like the type two head. They are much paler than a type-two head, like a normal type-one head, but do not have that "peach fleshtone" look that a normal Type 1 Superhero head has to it. This may or may not be an absolute characteristic of an original SI but in my research, they appear to be a common trait and a trait that doesn't seem applicable to Superhero heads of the same sculpt. It would have to surface on a carded specimen to know for sure]
