One variation has a yellow belly as seen on the Hi-Tail and Deep Dive Tiny Runt and the other has a white belly. Comes in both gold eye versions which date to around 1960 and a white eye version that dates to mid to late 1960's. This is a cataloged color for the Hi-Tail, c. 1960. It is a uncataloged color for the River Runt Spooks.
