This isn't really a theory, just an observation. Here's the alleged face of young Master Xehanort that someone got by supposedly hacking into the game and viewing the front of him.
Here's why I think the image is fake:
1. Even IF a face is on young MX, it may not even be his actual face. There's a reason Nomura never showed his face in a cutscene. He either doesn't want us to know or he himself isn't even sure what face he should give Master Xehanort yet.
2. Honestly, this is the same as Terra's flat face (by that I mean his face when it's not being animated and his mouth occasionally moves like a fish's.) The two youths should NOT have the same face.
3. Why would young MX have YELLOW eyes? Xehanort the apprentice had brown ones, and you can't even say that was a mix of Terra and MX's eyes because blue and yellow mix to make green.
If you need to see both faces at once, look here:
I'm sorry but that's the best image of Terra I could get from a cutscene.
Quite honestly though, it's the same.
So, even though I don't think Nomura has been asked about this face, it's NOT Young MX's real face. Whoever was doing that model probably just put in Terra's face since it felt weird not to give him ANY face at all.
