So I decided to splurge out and spend the $60 on the Geonosian starfighter, only to find that the Geonosian's head-printing is a bit funky... Everything's been printed too high up, so he has his teeth nicely settled on his lips and his nose cavity is printed halfway up the actual nose. It's a shame the poor guy looks so silly compared to the angry warrior seen on lots of other official pics. I tried TLG's replacement parts service and it arrived today, but the new head is exactly the same! I don't know whether they'll allow me another try, or whether I should just let it be. I'm just disappointed that the replacement head is just as bad as the first.

That's the trouble with such intricate printing and head moulds- if it's not perfect, then it just looks bad. Of course when they ARE perfect, almost all look :wub:, but that's not the point. :wink:

Oh, the woes of unfortunate printing-machine encounters...

I think there already is a thread about misprints around here somewhere... Anyway, I had to get a replacement for my Wald fig from the podracers set because his eyes were horribly misprinted too, and they told me that they can only replace the part once. But you can always try again, I suppose.

Aren't the eyes on the Geonosian supposed to be kinda high up though? (pic from Bricklink)

EDIT: I just got the set today, and mine looks pretty much like the one in the pic above, so if yours looks like that too, I'd say that's how it's supposed to be.
