I'm not sure if anyone here is aware of this, but I thought I'd pass on the information anyway.
I read a few reports about Excellion having "Door problems".
If you don't know who Excellion is, he's the Red repaint of Hot Shot.
From getting one yesterday I now know what the Door Problem is, and are hoping Hasbro fix it for further production runs.
What's happened is that the arm-pieces and doors are in fact a semi-transparent plastic, and as such the doors are painted red. The main problem is that the red doesn't exactly match the red plastic, and the other problem is that the paint application is VERY sloppy. Mines has a few paint-trails, and a few missed pieces on it
If you missed out on the Red Galaxy Force DVD exclusive, or just plain refused to pay the price asked for it, then this is a suitable alternative, but I wouldn't recommend rushing out and getting it, simply in the hopes that they fix the door paint-job.
