    Doubtful. The chest panel here is part of the same sprue as the windshield, they can't tint one without tinting the other, and they want the flux capacitor panel to be clear.
    Best bet is either a decal/label of some sort, or a clear smoke paint. Not ideal, I know, but I doubt they'd change the figure this close to release.

    This, I think if it stays clear, I will pass up on it.

    I second that [citation needed]. Is this another toy that fell off the truck?

    Glad they tinted the windows, I know it's not entirely film-accurate but it does look better. I was going to get this no matter what, but now I'm even happier to get this.

    Oh yes, a definite improvement. Hopefully Ectotron won't be lonely too much longer on my shelf.

    What if the version that got bot'd to hell actually has the clear windshield parts in addition to the numbered box that more likely than not is also getting treated like garbage by the Walmart packing and shipping team?

    Wow, they actually UN-fucked it up! Stunning and wonderful!

    I'm curious about the nature of it. I assumed the auto glass and the chest glass that shows of the flux capacitor were molded together, but the chest window appears un-tinted (as what's behind would be harder to see). So is the window tinting painted on, or is the chest F.C. window molded in a different clearer color?

    That looks so much better! If they actually changed the windows because of all the complaints, THANK YOU HASBRO! I am now buying this for sure.
