Difference between Old & New Vixen

Difference between Old & New Vixen - 01/05/22 02:04 AM

I need a little Help> Alot of Help.. I have a couple Reaction Innovation Vixens in the original packages. I have 2 Gen 2 that are in a box (4 sided clear plastic over 3 sided holding box with Blue VIXEN Lettering). The ones in Question have a cardboard back that slides out the top of the clear plastic covering... They also have Vixen in Gold Lettering and are made in Scottsdale AZ & Alabaster AL. Would these be the Originals ?

Easiest way to tell is the line tie...original is on top of the cup / lip. Updated version is lower than the original.

Post pictures and I'll ask my buddy who's an expert on these.

For whatever reason the first gen with box with the naked chick bring the most money, I don't think they work any better its just a collector thing. You can have all the star wars action figures in the world but with out the packaging they aren't worth near as much.

The two that I have had the semi-naked chick. They are both originals.

I could tell a difference in the sound when you shake them in your hand.

Several differences between them
Sound and hardware are the two major differences
The hardware on the originals were a little thicker
I have about 10 originals and still fish them
