 I just checked it out. No its not me, mine is even a different color box. I havent got anything on ebay. I used to but could never sell anything so i got off of it.  I dont need to sell it, i just bought it to make money off of it, but like i told that guy, what he offered me would just pay for the postage and what i paid for it. Cant make money that way. I did make money on that toy soldier tho. Paid .25  sold it for 20.00. ;D

Many times companies boxed items differently for different distributions.  For example they may have an exclusive with an upscale store and have a different box to sell from their store versus all the other stores.

Right !!  You can even now find some things in different color packaging in the same store !!  Although the items in the packages are the same !!
