Some current eBay recently completed EK2 to EK1 "conversions", designed to fleece unwary variant collectors. Either laugh or throw up, but don't be fooled

I've seen this mutants,too-Not from the usual suspects,that makes it a little more dangerous for a beginning collector.....!

But this pieces are so bad that they are no really danger(I hope)!

I am imagining the Proud Purchasers trying to AFFIX these to their jammies in the mirror

fooled with to increase their value.

caveat emptor.

I've never seen one like this. It looks practical but unsually rare for sure.
