    In all fairness my Takara has that too, it's just much harder to see because of the darker color.

    According to the UPS site it was supposed to arrive today but once they did the handoff the tracking stopped. I went in since it was going to be delivered and checked and sure enough he was waiting.

    They're from the mold. You see those spots on the inner side of most plastic panels. Even the Takara Tomy version has them.

    I thought it was little dabs of glue holding the visor in place. Just more noticeable here since the yellow is more transparent than the red. Too bad it's not chrome.

    Technically those are "ejector pin" marks.

    Ya know....ive watched SW online for months now...hoping to own one. All the hype and obstacles to get one has been ..well exhausting. I finally get one today and after transforming him and the minions I have to honestly say that the wait has been well worth it!!! This thing is a beast!!!! My favorite MP hands down!

    That translucent yellow would have looked good if they did it right. It probably would have been better if they had just painted the visor gold metallic. My visor looks just like yours.

    Holy crap. They sent you the package mock up.

    This whole situation is one big TRU cluster.
