    is the mustache Steve in khakis packed in the same ratio as clean Steve?

    Question for the Jasons - Lenzi and Labs.

    I know the khaki Steve is listed as shipping in a case with 2 Rudy figures.
    Are the Steve Austin figures packed evenly with the clean shaven and mustache versions?

    thanks - rche

    Yeah I would like to know too. I ordered two Khaki Steves and got two clean shaven Steves. I'm calling Entertainment Earth Monday to see if I can get a replacement on one of these so I can have both. I definitely want a mustache version too. The sculpt looks different because you can see the mold of the mustache on it.

          Thank you for the kind words. As of now, there is no mustache variant in the red jogging suit version.

            Mustache Steve is a chase variant figure.

              I just cancelled one of my Khaki orders because of this message from Entertainment Earth...

              "Thank you for your order and e-mail. The Steve Austin figure with the mustache is a manufacturer chase/variant figure. It is randomly distributed to us by the manufacturer. We do not know how many will be delivered to us, and the figure itself does not have a unique SKU#. We cannot offer it as an individual item as a separate order from the regular Steve Austin Khaki. Did you want to maintain the order knowing that the moustached figure is a variant and that there is only a small chance that you would get the random figure? Please advise so we know how to proceed."

              Not entirely happy with that since that version was something I was hoping to add to my collection. I'm not a fan of chasing after product I've waited three decades to have.

                If I get one, we can swap. Never liked Steve's cookie duster personally.

                  Thanks Brian! I'm partial to the porn 'stache look.

                    Not to say it isn't a really fun idea for a variant, I just never liked it when Steve or Hutch grew those caterpillars.

                      I thought the mustache Steve would be a later release and got a little nervous when I saw the posts with the figure. I ordered two khaki Steves that should arrive tomorrow. I am hoping they are both the regular version. I can remember being turned off from watching the show when I saw the upcoming season promos and Lee Majors new look. I thought he looked stupid.

                        I'd really like a mustache version; be happy to buy it from you if you get one.

                          looks like there will be a quite active secondary market for this chase figure.

                            Variants are not my favorite thing, but at least if this was at retail it would make more sense. It's a cool "surprise" in one sense, but doing it on a product like this where you have to pay shipping and stuff for a "chance" to get the variant is a bit annoying.

                            I'm sure the MM will be fine for people wanting to trade and stuff, but that's more expense and hassle too, mind you.

                            Some people might have bought both versions if they were available, but with a chase, someone may just skip it entirely.
