Kader
Kader did not produce an Orange Snake variant and in fact the Figure didn't debut on a card Back to much later in the run probably on a 48 back.
Early Kader Yodas also featured a MADE IN HONG KONG tag, but this is made of cotton and is much harder to find (only a few known examples). Perhaps, and this is just speculation on my behalf, they were found in the figures found in the baggies that came with the Darth Vader carry case or the ESB 6-pack.
The Kader Yodas are sometimes called "Grey Heads" and "Green Heads". The grey heads were made of a plastic that tended to discolour to a grey colour with time, hence the name, whereas the later green heads do not discolour.
The Kader snakes are rubbery like the Smile snakes but are easily identified by the circular epms that can be located on the top or bottom of the head and half way along the body.
On the grey heads, like the head of the Yoda itself, the snakes are prone to degradation, turning a greenish colour and so are often termed "green snake" Yodas. There are some Yodas termed "true green snake" which have a proper green snake, but these are all Smile Yoda figures and all trace back to the same seller, and can not be verified.
On the transition green Head Yodas and later Kader no coos an tan epm version of the snake that doesn't degrade can be found. You can see this on the green head figure on the right of the pic below.
The Kader canes can be found in dark brown and red brown colours and can again be identified by the circular epm found on the arch of the cane. The belts can also be identified by the circular epm on the lightsaber holder (v5 on TIG).
