Thanks folks,
Trigger pulled. Went for Beaver/Rabbit blend. Crystal Skull style in Sable. The Raiders sable just seemed too red for me. Now I play the waiting game. It's gotta come all the way down to New Zealand so I'm praying for a pre Xmas arrival.

There are a few comparison pics on the website but I'd love to see pics of the two on somebody's head in daylight to help with the final decision. Would ...

Is the cut the same between the two. Is it just a colour change? I have both a todds (yellowish) and a wpg. I tend to find the WPG is worn the most as the colour is bang on for me, but the todds is more comfortable to wear.
