The 2nd Edition figure (Repaint) came with a War Club and a new Spear, but no Axe. |

GRAVE DIGGER |
GRAVE DIGGER was packaged with 5 “bend ‘em” mini-figures that his bio referred to as “Cohorts.” All of the “Cohorts” EXCEPT for the TWO closest to GRAVE DIGGER are packaged the same way in every figure bubble. |
|
GRAVE DIGGER has the second highest number of possible variations in the entire SPAWN Action Figure Line, mostly because of the “Cohorts” (The five “bend ’em” demon-like figures) and a lot of subtle package variations. (Only the Series 12 THE HEAP has more possible variants). This section is intended to give you a better understanding of what makes GRAVE DIGGER so special. GRAVE DIGGER initially shipped in a bubble that extended 3 inches off of the figure card. This left about a 1 inch gap between the figure in the inner bubble and the card. The later versions of GRAVE DIGGER shipped in a bubble that rose 2 inches off of the card, leaving no gap between the figure in the inner bubble and the card. This is the easiest way to tell early versions of GRAVE DIGGER apart from ones that shipped later. Using this package variation, one can easily tell early Series 8 shipments from those that arrived later. The variations below are listed in the order in which they were confirmed- which is not necessarily the order in which they were released. The 3 inch bubbles, however, were definitely released first, while the Repaint version(s) were definitely released toward the end of the Series 8 run. When the color of a “Cohort” changes in the order it is listed, it means that different plastic was used, and the actual “Cohort” itself was the same mold true to its position in the package, but its color has changed. FOR EXAMPLE: The First “Cohort” listed has Two Horns, and in the 1st Edition Package, it is Green in color. In the 3rd Edition Package, The First “Cohort” with Two Horns is now Blue in color-- SAME “COHORT” MOLD, SAME PACKAGE ORDER, BUT DIFFERENT COLOR. |
