Found this today at my local Big Lots (check out Big Lots friends; *lots* of new Mattel stuff is hitting there first before Target, Wal-Mart, etc.).

As I was looking through the pegs I saw two Hawkman 3-Packs…but the Hawkman figures had very different paint jobs!  The colors painted on the one on the left are much darker than the one on the right. The plastic of the head has two completely different shades of orange, and even the skin on the face is changed. Check out how the neck skin doesn’t match the shoulders on the figure on the right. Only the torso skin color is the same on both figures.

I have no idea which one is the "normal" version, if this is a running change, a variant, or a mistake. But I have no idea how you could lighten every shade of paint on the figure by mistake.

Very, very odd…
