mine didn't come with a header. it came in a bag that had a piece of paper with a skullbrain design on it as a backdrop.

no problem. you can tell it's just a piece of paper printed on a color printer. the paper feels like it was very wet with ink and then got crinkly when it dried.

Just got mine. Looks like the number was crossed out (by an employee who wanted his/her identity kep secret?) But the bag is still sealed. Is this the type of bag everyone else's came in?

Did yours have the paper insert? Looks like the one Isaac is holding doesn't, but some people's do.

I'm wondering if there are two packaging versions of this figure...

It's a gorgeous Brain. The packaging will quickly disappear into my box of headers and bags. 8)

So it looks like the ones that came with the paper insert were numbered in the corner. I see the And Toy picture has "042" written on it. Anyone know how many of these were given out?

mine has packaging like the one you got, not like the one Isaac is holding

also, I didn't get any cool bootleg stickers, but I bought it second hand and I'm sure those were long gone

Is your bag also the same size/dimensions as mine? Mine looks like it was heat sealed or something - ie, no sticky flap, taped area, or staples. Heremetically sealed. ;)

mine was not sealed in any way. in fact I think it was in a standard ziplog style bag.

but I know for a fact that the person I got it from got it directly from Secret Base/Hiddy

Huh, interesting. Any thoughts on how the numbers on my header aren't readable? Very bizarre...

These are Employee Secreters so i'd imagine they went to Secret Base employees.Maybe they didnt want hiddy finding out about the sale..

Yeah that was my first guess. Kind of neat - super cool figure with a mystery back story/ownership history. 8)
