Beige Headpiece:
There are two main mould variations. Subvariants do exist and may not all be documented. As a result of the fact that these were shot on a sprue tree in higher numbers the subvariants may vary heavily depending on the mould used.
There are 2 main mould variations: M1 used by Unitoy in Hong Kong and later on by Lili Ledy in Mexico and M2 which was used by Universal Manufacturers in Taiwan. The main differences are the plastic malleability (M2=slightly softer) and mould cavities used: M1 was stamped 1, 2, 3 and 4 whereas M2 was stamped with 5, 6, 7 and 8. Also M1 seems to have gate scars on both ears whereas M2 has only one gate scar on the left ear and a nub inside to create a gap between the hood and Teebo’s nose.
M1 was produced by UNITOY in Hong Kong. The metal-mould later went to LILI LEDY in Mexico. These headpieces sink when submerged under water. The mould cavities used were stamped 1, 2, 3 and 4. All combinations of letters (mould cavities) and colours can occur.
The following colours are known:
- white/green feathers [3] (Tri-Logo/Macau)
- cream/glossy brownish feathers [3] (Lili Ledy)
- dark cream/glossy olive feathers [1] (Lili Ledy)

There is mainly two plastic colours known on those: beige and greyish coloured. The mould cavities used were stamped 5, 6, 7, and 8. All combinations of letters (mould cavities) and colours can occur.
