Bob and Betty have always looked like picture at the top. They must have made different looking sims for different regions that they ship the game too.

I really like those heads! They're similar to ones I had in my edition, but not identical. It would have been nice to have more Asian-looking heads.

My Bob and Betty were like the ones you found when you googled the two of them.

This is definitely strange. If I had to go with some kind of explanation it would be that since you're from a different region, just like how joandsarah77 said. They must've made sims that look similar to the population in whatever area the game was sold in.

BTW I loved both of those heads for my various sim families. I used your version of Betty's head somewhat often. I Specifically remember naming her Veronica once.

Well, my Bob and Betty look like the Newbies In the top picture on the left. I suppose it's just different regions too.

Haha maybe what I think is right.. They made a difference bob and betty for other region but I wonder why no one discovered it before.
I try very hard to find the topic that talk about this issue but I found nothing, so I post my own to make sure that they are really difference. (Or just looking for someone who had a same bob and betty as me haha.

this is my copy of the sims game. Is it difference from you guys? :D

That's the same one I have (still have). It has the Bob and Betty shown in the first picture of the OP on the left (one on top, one on the bottom), but those other skins were also available in the game. I live in the US.
