I know Hasbro wants to be more multicultural and all, but I think this kinda misses the mark a little.



Both of my Viper sets have this issue. Not a big issue since the arm guards are there, but it reduces the ways I can display the figures.

The forearms are different skin colour from the neck

Oh, I didn't even realize that was supposed to be skin. Eesh. Is that from the 3-pack?

haha ya. like he mentions, usually it's covered by the guard piece so you won't see it. Kinda curious if they're all like that.

Jeeez! And you have two sets like this? I'd heard of this popping up, but I thought it was rare. Are you going to return it?

No, not gonna bother.

I only took it off cause it's nice to have a slight variation like I did with my Python Patrol ones.


It actually works out cause I was going to custom that one and the dark skin actually will match the head as I was going to remove the neck piece.

On the ones that are correct, I saw a reviewer state that the skin tones are way different as well.

Looks like GameStop has updated their Dusty listing to today (Nov 25) so expect to receive shipping notices soon!

This is where I wish they made us pay up front. I suddenly have a huge bill cause so many things I pre-ordered expecting them to be spaced out due to the release dates are suddenly all being released this month!

Oh well, nice that we are able to get products.
