are very similar. So here are a few details, I'd like to change/discuss:
1) I belive that the first two pictures shown for part 3626bpb0025 are in fact
the red version, i.e. wrong. Please remove them. The third image has a darker
pattern and may be the correct one, but it's very small and with black background
which may make comparison with the other part harder (that part is photographed
on a white background).
2) I'll upload new images for both parts with consistent lighting, and I'll
upload a comparison image as well. In fact, I stronly urge you to delete all
previous images -- they're either wrong, tiny or with bad lighting.
3) I'll suggest a change of the title for 3626bpb0025 (Brown pattern) to
change the color of the pattern to "Dark Red". IMHO, it's clearly not brown,
but a darker shade of red. If this is not accepted, please consider writing a
note on the parts about the shades of red instead.
4) I'll add a "Same Items with Different Pattern Style" relationship between
the two parts.
Hopefully this will make the difference between these two parts clearer, because
I don't think it is now.

BricksThatStick reached out to me since I uploaded the image for the red beard
version. I read through the thread and I'll give my two cents:
In my opinion, all the pics of bearded heads that normann1974 uploaded are brown
only. I agree there is some variation in the color between brown and red-brown
as can be seen with
and the other pic normann1974 posted, but the printing still isn't actually
red.
As an example of distinguishing the heads (and hopefully not make things more
difficult), I would say that, regarding the brown and red colors, these two heads
* | | 3626bpx22 Minifigure, Head Standard Grin with Red Messy Hair, Moustache, and Vertical Lines Beard Pattern - Blocked Open Stud
Parts: Minifigure, Head |
differ much like these two differ
* | | 3626bpx123 Minifigure, Head Standard Grin with Dark Red Messy Hair, Moustache, and Vertical Lines Beard, Black Eye Patch Pattern - Blocked Open Stud
Parts: Minifigure, Head |
* | | 3626bpx80 Minifigure, Head Standard Grin with Red Messy Hair, Moustache, and Vertical Lines Beard, Black Eye Patch Pattern - Blocked Open Stud
Parts: Minifigure, Head |
which I think would be helpful since the 3626bpx80 is much more accessible to
people than 3626bpx22 and would serve as a good comparison.
I do still have the head that I took a pic of for 3626bpx22 and I might have
one more. I'll take some pictures tomorrow of the various heads to hopefully
demonstrate the differences in color.

So here's my comparison pic.
In my personal collection, all the lower left head printings are pretty indistinguishable
colorwise among pirate figures as well as the cavalry figures, most certainly
not red. So for those who think their brown pattern may be red, just compare
it with a Redbeard head. As you can see, the print pattern looks to be the same
between patched and non-patched heads. (I know the top left beard appears thicker
but I think that's just from the printing looking kind of smudged when it
was applied.)

There are technically four items here:
1. Blue figure packaged and sold in cardboard box
2. Blue figure not packaged and sold with paper tag
3. Red figure packaged and sold in cardboard box
4. Red figure not packaged and sold with paper tag
For those four items there are two catalog entries:
1. Mini Torch Minifigure Flashlight Key Chain Classic
2. LED Key Light Minifigure Key Chain
Neither catalog entry specifies the color of the figure or the type of packaging.
Since we're not being specific with either catalog entry, I agree that it
would probably be appropriate to merge the catalog entries.

I see. Mine would then fall under LED Key Light Minifigure Key Chain since they
have the tag (and are also in an open polybag with an adhesive strip to "seal"
the bag). I was thinking it might be better to merge them in case an interested
buyer is only aware of one and not the other nearly identical entry and for sellers
to get more exposure (which would be my case  ).
