Hi all,

I found a new mold in the new set:

 
Set No: 76204  Name: Black Panther Mech Armor
* 
76204-1 (Inv) Black Panther Mech Armor
121 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 2022
Sets: Super Heroes: Avengers

We have a new mold for the ears pieces.

 
Part No: 25264  Name: Minifigure, Headgear Head Top with Ears
* 
25264 Minifigure, Headgear Head Top with Ears
Parts: Minifigure, Headgear

There's no evident esternal aesthetic differences but underside we have two
hollow spaces.

Looking better we can also see that new piece has on the side the sprue of the
mold (even the older has it but less prominent).

Another difference, being picky, is the shape of the hole. Both has a sort of
squared circle underside (for the clutch power) but in the new mold this "squared"
part continue to the top.

So, I can say that there aren't evident functional difference (maybe more
clutch power in the new one).

Weight of 25264: 0.12 (i cannot explain why the weight in the database is 0,5g)
Weight of 86695: 0.11

Thank you,

Mirko

I have added an additional note and added your comparison images to the part
entry. I have also added this part to the "Unsplit Part Variants" list:

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogRelCat.asp?relID=24

The last thing that I did was update the weight of the part to 0.12g and give
you credit for it.

Thanks for adding to the knowledge base.

Cheers,
Randy
