Chopper Dome Printing

Recommended Posts

I just opened my Phantom set and was dismayed to see that the printing on Chopper's dome is really wonky. The orange line is really uneven (see pic). I tried looking at photos elsewhere on the web and many of those seemed to have off-kilter printing as well. Now I know that Chopper is a bit of a patchwork astromech but is this printing intentional? Is it on every Chopper? I know I could probably get LEGO to send me a replacement part (they've been great about that in the past when printing issues occurred) but I won't bother if the issue is intentional or widespread. I've never had issues with other astromechs although this is my first with this type of dome. Can anyone shed any light on this regarding their own specimens of Chopper? Thanks!

Hi

Here's a quick photo of mine....

As you can see the orange band is a bit wonky it seems to be slightly higher up the dome on the left. But the printing does seem a lot sharper on mine. Hope that helps!!
