Magnus is correct. There's a modern head and vintage head. I think we all have different interpretations of what a "variant" is when it comes to these things, but both Robins share the same wave/figure number, so for me, it's a variant. Modern head (hair parted to side) is more the classic looking Robin (for me), but for some reason most of that version came with Frankenstein legs.. meaning some of the leg pieces used from are a different shade. It never really bothered me, but you can see in this picture. Keep in mind that photos really bring out colors, so they don't look this bad in person. And quality issues are more common than $2 bills with DCUC.

D00mtron, be careful with his ankles. If they don't move very well, slowly break them in. A lot come stuck, and people break them trying to pose him, but once you get those ankles working he has some sick range,.. very poseable.
