I don’t know if I expect anyone here to know, but...(itt: 2019 Gibson confusion)

I went to Guitar Center the other day (great way to start a story, I know) and got a chance to play some of the new 2019 Gibson’s. The handful I played (SG Junior, Les Paul Special, SG Standard) were all nice, nicer than I expected honestly, but I still wouldn’t pay full price for a single one cuz...I can’t afford that shit!
My favorite of the bunch honestly was the Flying V Tribute (or B-2? I don’t know), which felt fantastic. I was clicking around on Gibson’s site yesterday, and found...two slightly different versions of it? I don’t know what the deal is:

https://www.gibson.com/Guitar/USA15M813/Flying-V-B-2#
Both same price, both still for sale, the only difference that I can identify is the placement of the headstock logo. I think the second one with the pearl logo looks kind of goofy, almost like a bad photoshop. I guess that one also comes with a case. I found both of these for sale on guitar center’s site as well, both for the same price. What’s going on here?
