Hello fellow collectors, sellers and buyers.

sometimes you find, that what you thought isn't correct.
I've just learned that my sw1005 Finch Dallow is not complete, therefore
not really in my collection. That's a bit of a downer.

I always thought they just switched the head in 75188 for the revised set.
But apparently they also switched the helmet of the figure.

Back then Lego offered the new head for customers that bought the set, which
was cool and they sent it ,and i was very happy. Great, i thought, the generic
figure goes from a ok to a rare one. But apperently that's not the case.

Collecting Lego minifigs is not as easy as it looks.

just a little rant
best
Werner

They offered the head and helmet if you contacted them.
