| Please make changes to the following inventory:
* Add 1 Minifig sw0997a Stormtrooper (Dual Molded Helmet, Black Squares on Back) (Alternate) (match ID 1)
* Change 1 Minifig {sw0997 Stormtrooper (Dual Molded Helmet) to sw0997b Stormtrooper (Dual Molded Helmet, Gray Squares on Back)} {match ID 0 to 1}
Comments from Submitter:
Sealed set based on which I made this inventory had "b" variant. That is why I'm adding it as regular.
In this speed build from sealed set content is "a" variant

Probably "a" variant is earlier one but is hard to be sure as I bought this set on the first day of release and alredy had "b" variant. So since first day of release this set can has "a" or "b" stormtrooper.

Are you sure that the one with black squares on back is a definite printing variant
and not just a misprint that is missing the overprint from the "gray" squares
version? They both have the same PCC, so LEGO does not consider them separate
prints.
Cheers,
Randy

When I was cheking the case I saw many reviews with this without gray printing.
There is too many of them recorded from different parts of world to be simple
missprint. I think it is maybe rather factory error which was later corrected
or from different factories is this part. Especialy that "leaked" ones which
showed before sets were oficialy released are without print. We will see how
many listnings for sell will be for them it will tell something. As for now there
are more "a" variant.
