The Official Bootleg thread

Ha! I never noticed. It almost adds to their charm though. I wonder if that error is consistent among each batch sent out. I guess I'll buy a set & find out.

But on the topic of paint, with these being bootleg (as in, unregulated) products from China, is lead paint an issue to be concerned about? I know it's an old practice long since ceased in mainstream toy production, but I dunno about underground stuff.
