Backpack piece got bent and discoloured - any chance to fix that?

The loop thing (how do you even call it?) got bent in transport under pressure, and is discoloured? Can anything be done to restore it?

You can use a heat gun to reheat the plastic. Be careful not to deform/burn it of course.

If you put it on a minifugure with a head then most of the mark will be covered anyway.

Still quite annoying though :(

Rubbing/scraping it with your thumbnail will sometimes take out stress marks in plastic.

Of course, the structural integrity will still be compromised even if you can’t see it. You may want to consider ordering another one on BrickLink.

Yeah, it does still look bad. It might also have been aggressive feeling to identify a sealed pack.
