I don't think anyone was implying they were the same snake. Just the same combo.

Interesting how at the end of the day, it really is all a matter of personal taste -- I like animal #1 way better than animal #2. :P
I really wish NERD had just created a new name for their hidden gene woma when the soulsucker was produced; it would certainly have saved many people from going too far down a google rabbit hole. however, I agree that the first snake pictured is more interesting. beauty is in the eye of the beholder, one man's trash is another man's treasure, etc.
I'm sure if the OP contacted boa basement, they would provide an update on the genetics if anything new is known. both snakes are great in any case (although I'm biased as a fan of the woma pattern), but pastels come in all shapes and sizes, figuratively speaking. they could both well be the same combination but differ in appearance due to any number of factors, ranging from the line of pastels used in their breeding, to age, to shed cycle, to the use of a flash or camera filter in the photo op. regardless, I don't think anyone should have any trepidation about acquiring a super pastel woma should the opportunity present itself.
