Anyone else here get some Beasts from the "Marcia Moll Collection" that was on eBay recently?

I got Antic Anteater. As expected, I could not see any difference with my "regular" Anteater figure (except less paint wear), but the weapon is missing the number.
Here is the description from the seller:
"This listing is one of a special collection from Marcia Moll, a long time toy product manager at Revell and Hasbro in the 1970s and 80s. Among these listing are mint boxed production items as well as some rare prototypes, product catalogs and other publications. Please be sure to examine each item carefully for variations from publicly released items as I am sure I will miss some unique variations in these listings that will make for a nice find for an advanced collector. I always combine shipping for multiple auction winners so please take a look at my other auctions and save on shipping!
SPECIAL NOTE: Marcia was the Assistant Product Manager in charge of the Battle Beasts line and flew to Japan to review the line and put together the product catalog and other promotional items. She brought this figure and the other BB figures listed back from that visit to Japan. She can't positively verify it, but she believes that the figures listed here this week are from the photo shoot that was used to put together the sales catalog and other promo materials for the US market."
