Error Figures in the new release?

How many actually FIGURE errors have been reported so far with the new Nick TMNT line? Ive done a bit of searching and so far Ive found a Krang suit with no Krang. The rest have been packaging errors (mis-lableings and stuff like that)
The reason Im asking is because I was sent (BY Playmates) a Factory error Donnie (it came with 2 left hands) Im just trying to figure a rarity "Level" of these type things

PIC!!!

I've seen a Leonardo without white paint on its eyes and teeth from a member here, aside from that and your figures I've not heard of others.

I actually bid on a krang suit with no krang on ebay, but got outbid. I thought it looked kinda cool.

Why/how did you get the Donny directly from Playmates? Do you mean you ordered off their website or they sent you a figure for some reason?

Also, someone recently showed a Shredder with black chestplate (it hadn't been painted or something.)

Did you contact Playmates about it? I don't know how upset you are about it but they've shown me good customer service in the past.

I've had Metalhead since Tuesday and honestly only noticed the two left feet issue yesterday after messing around with him some. So no, I havent contacted them about the issue. I dont think I will either as I dont really "play" with them, more or less repose them on my computer desk from time to time.

On a side note, did you guys notice his feet say El Segundo, CA? Any idea of what importance if any that is?

I doubt he's made in El Segundo, unless there's an El Segundo in China.

But seriously, Playmate's corporate offices are in El Segundo. As are Mattel's for that matter.
