A new   *  3626cpb0193 Minifigure, Head Glasses with Silver Sunglasses, Black Eyebrows Pointed, Thin Grin Pattern - Hollow Stud Parts: Minifigure, Head was created and this one got changed to its current number and I don't understand how that happened, but the new C remained orphaned until this year when I found that I had somehow put the wrong head on   *  col272 (Inv) Football / Hockey Player Minifigures: Collectible Minifigures: (Other) . It looks like the original cpb0193 probably had the correct image. Then Marek submitted a new photo of the head years later to the entry and the former catalog admins didn't notice it was a different head when they accepted it. This overwrote the original image and started the whole fiasco. Years later, someone noticed in 2018 that the image of cpb0193 did not match the image of bpb0193, so the cpb0193 was renumbered to a different number (cpb1933). Finally, someone eventually added the original cpb0193 back into the catalog with the correct image. Basically, the whole thing could have been avoided if the original cpb0193 image had not been overwritten. Anyways, I have added a new entry for the modern head to get this cleared up:   *  3626cpb3103 Minifigure, Head Glasses with Silver Sunglasses, Black Eyebrows Wavy, Thin Grin Pattern - Hollow Stud Parts: Minifigure, Head Have at it, buddy.
