But do you know what Dark Nougat looks like?

This is the only hairpiece ever made in Dark Nougat (and is one of the only pieces
known to exist in Dark Nougat), and Dark Nougat is very similar to Dark Orange.

https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/14890173099/

And this set definitely came with that hairpiece in Dark Nougat. (The official
LEGO data for this set confirms this as it also says it came with Dark Nougat
hair.)

If your original figure came from a sealed set with *true* Dark Orange hair,
then another minifigure will need to be created instead of altering the inventory
of this one.

Cheers,
Randy

also just to add that within that same set it actually comes with Kenobi with
hair described as Dark Orange and then the Anakin hair is officially described
differently as:-

Color Orange-brown
Description Dark Nougat

I'm not sure why Lego use two colour references for that same part but its
certainly intended to be different to Dark Orange thats for sure

The line that states "Color Orange-brown" refers to the color *family* that LEGO
uses to group colors. So the specific color "Dark Nougat" is grouped in the "Orange-brown"
color family. Many other colors are grouped in this color family.

I just checked my fig and you are right, it's Dark Nougat.

Then why is the figure pic in DK OG? The set pic and box image also have it
as DK OG?
Any new sellers that sees that pic will think it is DK OG.

So now you will ask me to provide a new pic, with and without cape? I'll
try to get to it.

Thanks for the "schooling".

There are many official set images and box images that show things that were
never included in the sets, but our guideline is to *not* alter official set
images or box images. However, we can change the figure image. There just happens
to be another image attached to that figure that shows the correct hair, so we
will just remove the image with dark orange hair. The image for the figure with
cape is already correct, also.

This minifig lives on my desk. Is a new picture of him wanted?
