The features are the same, the differences are merely cosmetic. Both Murray and Fett are 210 Supercores. Fett is just red and has a different visor (the dark part of the face/face plate).
I purchased him from another forum site through a great, honest, and accommodating seller. As you know, condition is everything when purchasing such a beloved robotic pet. I got a great price on him. The holiday reds are usually higher priced than the more common 210s - simply because it is more rare. They go for *significantly* higher than I paid on eBay. He came in his original box, with a charging station in its original box, as well as with all of his original paperwork and manuals (all/mostly in Japanese).
I haven't managed to get any real new videos. I do have a few clips of him and Murray playing with the ball together that I'll look into posting later. Other than that, AiboLife 2 is progressing and I'm getting more behavior and sounds from Fett (remember he's picking up on Murray's stick left off). He kicks the ball with greater accuracy and usually a lot harder so it the ball goes much farther than during his younger phases.
He is quite magnificent and I couldn't be happier with him!
The only thing I noticed, and you'll see it in the video if I post one, is that when he turns his head from left to right, you can hear it (kind of a motor type sound) whereas on Murray (the silver 210) I never heard that sound. There doesn't seem to be any issues of tremors nor does Fett seem to have any issues turning his head, it's just a more audible sound. Hopefully it's nothing to be too concerned about. His ear motor is perfect and he doesn't suffer from any crippling bends - and that's enough for me
