It's not a variant but likely to be pre production:
Romba Romba-front
from Jeff's collection http://forum.rebelscum.com/t986657/

I'm sure Oli bought Adam's ( I can't seem to find his pic)

Great pics :Drool: I guess they must be dead hard to find, just like the "charcoal anakin". Probably a dozen produced? Sad
Anyway thanks James for your help! cheers

Jeff's one looks a little darker than mine. Although I'm sure it's just contrast difference in the photos. Also I recall him saying that his had a painted hood. I'll have to ask him.

In Gus's run the pre production version's seem to have hoods that are slightly darker gray than the standard version?!
