In spite of Hasbro’s VP of Global Brand Management indicating in a recent interview at Echobasenews.com that they had resolved the issue with yellowing of figures, it seems as though they still haven’t really addressed the problem (at least not yet).
Over the past year or so, collectors are very aware of extreme cases of this on the BD # 58 Spacetrooper, TVC # 14 Sandtrooper and TVC # 15 Clone Trooper (as well as some Clone Wars Clone Troopers to a lesser extent). But now it’s being seen on the TVC # 52 Rebel Fleet Trooper’s helmet, and even the Clone Trooper helmet in the AOTC Blu Ray Commemorative set.
Our friends at Jedidefender.com have provided a comparison pic of this quality control issue on the Rebel Fleet Trooper and forum members Rum Sleg and Nygmex at Rebelscum.com also reported this problem recently as well.
So, what’s it going to take for Hasbro to address this issue once and for all? Share your thoughts after the jump!
