Hey all,
I seem to recall years ago that someone had posted a picture they had of two
Black Falcon ‘figs. One had the standard shield design, the other had the
same design only with the head of the bird facing in the opposite direction
(to the left as you’re looking at it).
Upon deploying my Black Falcon troops to populate a castle I’m almost
finished with I discovered that I have one of these ‘figs!
Does anyone recall what the story was, real or theoretical?

Hi Dave,
I also remember this discussion from several years ago. Johannes Koehler has
pictures of three different Black Falcon torsos:

A fourth variation can be found in the re-released 6074 Black Falcon’s Fortress
(set 10039) figures. The torso shields are more pointed in the re-release:
