Hello Everyone

I have a strange question to ask, but I just bought a brand new sealed "Japanese Transformers Galaxy Force GS-01 Blurr vs. Buzz Saw" toy two pack. As I examined the toy I noticed the packing artwork on the top of the box looks faded, well the colors of the Buzz-Saw photos look faded or dull. My question is, is this normal, or is there a printing error on my sample. I also noticed the artwork on the left half (Buzz-Saw have) of the front of the packing artwork look faded as well. But this seems to be normal for the packaging since I was able to find photo samples online, but I haven't been able to find pictures of the top of the box. The rest of the packing is fine and the toy colors look bright and perfect. it just seems to be the top part of the box looks faded. I am just thinking this is normal?

I have attached a picture of my toy. if any body has "top View" photos of the toy to share please send them my way lol. I am only asking such a silly question because I will be meeting the original G1 voice actor John Moschitta in two weeks and I would like him to autograph the toy, it is the only sealed Blurr toy I have.

Here are my pics:

Thank you

Looks like sun fading on the top for sure.

Also, I'd recommend not putting your email address out there like that. Bots that crawl pages will give you spam city in your inbox!

Thank you for the advice for my email address I was afraid it might be sun fading, but wasn't sure because the rest of the box looks fine? I think I will have to find something else to have signed.

Yeah the reason it looks so tell tale is the red. These things are printed as flat sheets before getting folded, so there shouldn't be such a contrast in color from one entire panel of it to the other. My guess is that at one point it sat in a case where the top flap was exposed to sunlight, but the rest was still covered up by cardboard.
