    Mine showed up today, his right knee is totally yellowed.  Didn\'t even get him out of the box yet.

    Ach. Well, we knew it would yellow, ig. Wishful thinking that it wouldn't.

    Did they not say at a panel that they fixed that? I swear they said he wouldn't yellow.

    They said they'd look into it, but I don't think they've ever promised it was fixed.

    Ah, gotcha. I found the April 20th Roundtable where they talked about it. I have emailed CS, hopefully they can resolve.

    How yellow? Like, a bone-colored off-white, or is it that brownish, sort of mustard color? Any signs of the left knee at least changing color?

    After further inspection...got a good amount of bone white discoloration asymmetrically all over. His knee is beige, but it certainly has some brown to it. The knee shows signs of changing color, as it is white underneath the joint. I have reports of other people experiencing no yellowing, so fingers-crossed that mine is a dud.

    I guess I got lucky with the yellowing. Con symbol is off-center but I can deal versus the yellow scourge.

    Ravage sucks, both hind legs keep popping off, my Siege version never had that problem.

    Mine has no yellowing, but Laserbeak was missing both legs. Called customer service, replacement backorder and will ship when they get stock

    Mine showed up today. No yellowing, but I did get 2 of the same guns instead of 1 shoulder cannon. 2E8B7A79-B153-4367-8278-9786367CCA11.jpeg

    Waiting to receive an unsatisfying response from Hasbro Customer Service.

    So…. is anyone interested in buying a still boxed SG Soundwave and Laserbeak? I literally bought it just to get Glit, so I’d be happy to sell it for a discount.

    I had the same thing on my Soundwave. Hasbro sent me another copy for free, and my replacement is not yellowed!

    Just got the email they’re doing the same for me. Let’s hope it arrives without yellowing.
