  The inventory of the Darth Vader (sw1112) minifigure was updated on Sep 3, cape
#522 was replaced with cape #522c.
 
Minifig No: sw1112  Name: Darth Vader - Printed Arms, Traditional Starched Fabric Cape
* 
sw1112 (Inv) Darth Vader - Printed Arms, Traditional Starched Fabric Cape
Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 4/5/6

According to Bricks & Pieces page, this minifigure comes with both #522 and #522c
capes as below.

In set 75294:
Element ID: 4124171
Design ID: 22231
 
Part No: 522  Name: Minifigure Cape Cloth, Standard - Traditional Starched Fabric - 4.0cm Height
* 
522 Minifigure Cape Cloth, Standard - Traditional Starched Fabric - 4.0cm Height
Parts: Minifigure, Body Wear {Black}

In set 75296:
Element ID: 6335646
Design ID: 73518
 
Part No: 522c  Name: Minifigure Cape Cloth, Standard - Traditional Starched Fabric - 3.9cm Height
* 
522c Minifigure Cape Cloth, Standard - Traditional Starched Fabric - 3.9cm Height
Parts: Minifigure, Body Wear {Black}

Should it be separated to sw1112a and sw1112b or should a new entry being made
for the one with #522 cape (as the current one is with #522c)?

Don't trust Bricks & Pieces, they don't distinguish between 522 and 522c.
See here:
https://brickset.com/sets/containing-design-22231
22231 in all sets through 2020, also in those for which we have confirmation
for 522c like
 
Set No: 71221  Name: Fun Pack - The Wizard of Oz (Wicked Witch and Winged Monkey)
* 
71221-1 (Inv) Fun Pack - The Wizard of Oz (Wicked Witch and Winged Monkey)
33 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 2015
Sets: Dimensions: Dimensions Wave 1: The Wizard of Oz

Do you have proof for 522 in set

?

My copy of set
 
Set No: 75294  Name: Bespin Duel - Star Wars Celebration 2020 Exclusive
* 
75294-1 (Inv) Bespin Duel - Star Wars Celebration 2020 Exclusive
285 Parts, 2 Minifigures, 2020

have cardboard sleeve with this exact number (just checked it - confirmed from
sealed set content)
 
Part No: 6122198  Name: Cardboard Sleeve 6122198 with Contents
* 
6122198 (Inv) Cardboard Sleeve 6122198 with Contents
Parts: Cardboard Sleeve
this cardboard sleeve with the same cape was then in this set also as I see
 
Set No: 75261  Name: Clone Scout Walker – 20th Anniversary Edition
* 
75261-1 (Inv) Clone Scout Walker – 20th Anniversary Edition
198 Parts, 5 Minifigures, 2019
Sets: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 3
so it is 522 cape.


Ok so I just opend this set and just checked cape carboard sleeve.
 
Set No: 75296  Name: Darth Vader Meditation Chamber
* 
75296-1 (Inv) Darth Vader Meditation Chamber
653 Parts, 2 Minifigures, 2021
Sets: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 4/5/6
and it has this
 
Part No: 6335651  Name: Cardboard Sleeve 6335651 with Contents
* 
6335651 (Inv) Cardboard Sleeve 6335651 with Contents
Parts: Cardboard Sleeve

So I have proof that in Vader from 75294 has 522 cape and from 75296 has 522c
cape


P.S.
But do we really want to complicate differentiation od Star Wars minifigures.
I propose maybe do the same as with heads just add a note that this minfigure
can be with 522 or 522c cape. I wish good look to all sellers tring to measure
those capes anf find 1mm od difference

[...] This is the best suggestion. The minifigures should not be made into separate entries. - Kevin
