It's a Bret Hart #2 on Bret Hart #1 card No it's not bret hart#1 on bret hart#2, it's the 2nd grail of Hasbromaniac: Bret Hart#2 with elbow pads black and pink instead of both pinks!

its def not a bret #2 on #1 card. I know its both the bret #2 on bret #2 card. But that Bret has black elbow pads whereas the released one has pink elbow pads. Still just curious if this is just an error or variation. Does anyone know of any others or loose ones?

I can clear up any confusion about this Bret. It is the unreleased mail away prototype that has pink wrist tape, black elbow pads and black stars on his boots and his back. The resin of this proto is shown as the mailaway in the WWF mag ad.
To my knowledge, this carded proto of Bret is 1 of 1, not 1 of 24 like Kamala w/moon.
If you look back at my Hasbro History post, you will see my loose prototype that has white wrist tape, black elbow pads and the stars on boots and back. Meatybat owns the other loose mail away proto.

Faints, LOL! Sorry, no reseal job any any of my figures. It was purchased from a collector who bought it from a former Hasbro employee. That's how the majority of rare items make it out of the companies, or they're stolen.

ohh.. thats interesting. I would have to agree then that you probably have the one and only. if there is others, then its unlikely that they are still MOC. Nice piece there! I remember when I bought my Luke error figure, the guy said that the figure was found in a dumpster. Wonder how many rare figures shared the same fate..

Well It was not even worth me taken pictures...... I'm so very disappointed. They arrived first thing this morning (so over a week since I paid the seller for next day special delivery). Poor reseal job, it took me like 3 secs to notice all the glue residue even the figure under the bubble looked in played with condition... Snake wasfar from the hasbro one. I was hoping to find the hasbro snake but in yellow. Anyway I immediately sent straight back to seller for a refund. But the guy is being awkward and saying its not a re-seal and the auction was not misleading to anyone.. Think he is guna try and fight his case with the refund... b

metal dude, im really sorry to hear that. I remember, even before i joined this board someone was selling this on ebay. It has always been on the Spanish card with this yellow snake. I actually remember once seeing it sell for well over 120 pounds. And the seller claimed it was with the rare "Lucifer" snake. And i think i searched the net, found this site just to read about it, and most of the members shot down that it was real cus for one, lucifer didnt appear until like 94, 95 and also in the time in which that figure was made would have been 90-91. but it still sold because maybe the seller didnt know what he had, and was just calling it lucifer because it was yellow.
BK
I think they're must have been a guy that got his hand on some yellow snakes and decided to make a dozen or so of these figures. Glad your getting your money back. I think we can put this yellow snake stuff to bed. FILED CLOSED!

If you type 'Hasbro Snake' into EBAY LINK NOT ALLOWED.uk there are a few different snakes which come up which are oviously not Damien too..... im guessing they were just off another toy line?
Hope you guys didn't pay too much for the figure

I think we can put this yellow snake stuff to bed. FILED CLOSED! Yeah I'm afraid so its a real shame cause would of been a real nice variant.. Still chasing my refund, the guy is being a jerk with me. I sent them back yesterday and checked the tracking today, He recieved at 1pm today... But so far no refund... I did use paypal though and it was all done through ebay so I should be ok right ? I paid out £50 (which is about $75) I can't afford to lose it...
