I last handled mine back in November, didn't notice anything at the time. He did come out around the same time as Cyberverse Hammerbyte whose light blue plastic is known to yellow very quickly after opening, mine yellowed after a month sitting on my desk out of direct sunlight. Maybe they were having an issue with some light colored plastic?

I got Ratchet from Amazon on Thursday, right out of the box part of the hip/thigh is discolored. Not sure if it's my eyes or it's supposed to be like that, barely noticeable but it's there if you look.

That's one of the spots I was seeing people on Twitter talk about, as well as the head and shoulders

Well, it's back in the box, out of sight out of mind.

OK, something I've read about SS Ratchet on TFWiki has me thinking a bit, and asking this question: are any of the parts affected made of a plastic other than ABS? Ratchet's affected parts are made of PA, Polyamide aka Nylon, and rubbery PVC parts are *very* prone to discoloration under the right circumstances.

My local Target still has an original Hammerbyte that has all of the light blue yellowed right in the package so it seems air exposure isn't a must here.

The tiys are not vacuum sealed, the tiy is still exposed to air in the packaging.
