pod-i.d. Two different shaped pods on one plant

These two different pod shapes are growing on the same plant. 
 
Pod Shape Type 1

I've pulled three of these off already and there are a few more still on the plant with this shape. They all grow pendant and elongated with blunt ends. 
 
Pod Shape Type 2

There is only one pod with this shape, but it is completely different.  Chimera?  Mutation? What is this?

I am well aware of pod variation, but this seems to me to be outside what I would consider in a normal range. There are a half dozen distinctly chinense pods that are blunt and pendant, even while developing, and one which is neither pendant nor blunt, and instead looks decidedly annuum. Not interesting?
