Vintage Yoda Belt Variation or Repro?

[ecl]

Hi!

I'm fairly new at collecting vintage star wars figures, but i've had a complete yoda for some time now, and i've noticed something about the belt. I've seen many photos on the internet of the belt with small "ridges" along the strap part, as seen in this pic from rebelscum

The one i have doesnt have these little ridges and is smooth, but everything else about the belt looks the same. here's a link to my belt

I was wondering if anyone here might know something about it. Thanks for looking!!

I've got thread (http://forums.sirstevesguide.com/showthread.php?t=22479) already started on this topic.

I never really answer per say to this question when I asked it. The clearest answer I received was from Billy Boy (a rebel scummer). I'm guessing your's is just one of four variations.
