- In 2003, a "reseen" version was produced with an all-new appearance, featuring a huge RAC on the shoulder.
- In 2004, a "reseen" variant was released with parts to make a SHD-7CS or 7M.

"Cobra Commander" "Reseen" casting Here's the "reseen" Shadowhawk. The mini is pretty cool, but the gun is a bit large out of scale. Upon close inspection, you can see that the sculptor made it from pieces of a Sagittaire and reseen Rifleman. The head reminds me of Cobra Commander, so that's how I chose to paint this mech. STATUS: Completed 6/2003. Sold, summer 2003. |

"Marik Legacy" Early Battledroids Casting Here's a second old Shadowhawk. This one has the original shoulder gun. But I had to reconstruct the barrel of the arm gun, which had been completely sheared off. Anyway, this one has a Fusiliers of Oriente Marik paint scheme, as seen in the old Camo Specs guide. STATUS: Custom job, delivered, 11/2001. |

"Arkab Legacy" Early Battledroids Casting This is an example of the extremely rare original casting Shadowhawk. The bottom date appears to say 1985 or 1986. The mini is larger than the standard Shadowhawk, and is done in the same style as the original Griffin. The shoulder cannon was reconstructed in plastic. The paint job is a 3025 Arkab Legion scheme, as seen in the Camo Specs guide. STATUS: Completed, July 2001. Sold, 10/2001. |
