Hey all,
I was just inventoring a bunch of old castle figures I want to put up for sale
soon (hint hint ), when I stumbled over this article on variations of the
falcon knight chest print:
https://thebrickhorse.com/wp/2015/09/different-variant-of-black-falcons-lego-castle-minifigures/
I can't find anything on these variants in the bricklink catalogue, are they
just missing, or has it been discussed and dismissed? I have both beak left and
beak right versions, all on short prong 80s torsos. Is that a thing for collectors?

The falcon facing left variant (just like the inverted colors variant) is not
distinguished here, but you can mention it in the item's description.

Can we add a note about this? I am surprised that one does not exist already!
