    I dont know if i should post here or not or the general toy discussion

    but i notice skids teeth were painted at botcon case asst. when i got home and got some skids here they were not painted

    to help out with the date stamp

    here it is
    color teeth skids - 91071 - one gold and one white
    update 90961/71 has paint teeth
    no color teeth skids 90761 - both green, non-painted


    i could post pics but i dont want to open my package....but i can see the difference...just bring a flashlight

    I haven't opened up my DLX Skids....where can I find this 'stamp'

    Thank you :) 

    P.S. Does anyone know the number stamp I would need to find the painted teeth version if I do not have it?

    I think the non-painted teeth don't have a black roof.

    Someone in the feedback forum said that you can see his head in the package, so you'll be able to tell before you buy it.

    If it helps...I think the same case that carries the variant/running change Sideways and Breakaway also comes with the Skids with painted teeth.

    I just found these at a TRU in Harrisburg, PA on Sunday...one dark Sideways, one dark Breakaway, and one painted teeth Skids.

    It could be coincidence...but they were pulled out of the same box because the TRU I got them from was restocking the shelves after the devastation caused by the release date.

    What is "botcon case asst."? Is that the figures that were being sold at Botcon in case assortments or the display cases?

    old news.

    You can see his teeth in package through the drivers side window, just look. If his teeth aren't the ones you want, don't buy it.

    Simple.
