Dear all
I have a problem with part 973p48c01 forestman.
I found two minifigs with same pattern but also not the same.
The difference is in collar colour. One is definitely brown and one is red.
I'm not able to find any information about colour differences in whole ethernet.
Bricklink don't say anything about colour differences.
Some pages say that this part has maroon collar and others that it's red.
See attached picture.

Any of You could help?

It is classed as a color variation by Bricklink.

I've once asked for addition of the extra color and comparison images have
been present in the database for a short while, but they have silently been deleted
since.

This is a common variation in forestmen minifigures. They are both considered
red.

I think adding a note to 973p48c01 providing this context may be helpful to future
members who have the same question.

I have nothing to add on the specific topic, but I will say that every time I
see those minifigures I get a rush of nostalgia... I love that line and era of
LEGO!
