Derek Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 Has it occurred to anyone that the clone eyes may be a variant that was intended? I mean, all of the Lego clones are identical, I think that it would be a cool thing for TLC to do to make them somewhat unique, as they seem to have unique personalities in the show. Just a thought.

The Who Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 I'm sorry if this has been known, but I think the left-looking eyes on clones might be normal. I just bought Four more Clone Battle packs, and there was one left-looking head in each pack. Just seems too perfect... Has it occurred to anyone that the clone eyes may be a variant that was intended? Did you not read my other post? Because that was kind of the whole point of 'digging up' this thread. Quote
Derek Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 (edited) Did you not read my other post?Because that was kind of the whole point of 'digging up' this thread. Sorry.I just didn't see that conversation in the last posts before mine. I didn't mean to offend you. And don't you get all bold on me... :laugh: I still think that the eyes were done like that on purpose though. It would be quite the mistake... Edited April 17, 2009 by darthperson Quote
ILikePi Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 (edited) I agree with both of you. My battle pack has three clones looking to the right (in their point of view), and one clone looking to the left (in his point of view). I just figured that the left-looking head belonged to the clone gunner, because he has different printing (armor) than the other three normal clones. And booger540, by left-looking clones do you mean in the clone's point of view, like these eyes? -> Or do you mean the other way (right-looking in the clone's point of view)?

I can answer your question. I actually have a few. I dont think it is so much the eyes, rather the facial lines. I will post a pic soon. Also, their eyes can either be left or right, I have both. Here it is. Oh no, the pic is big. Excuse me. Edited April 17, 2009 by Natman8000 Quote
RileyC Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 i have more clones looking right or left than actually looking straight forward! Quote
Natman8000 Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 i have more clones looking right or left than actually looking straight forward! Out of many, I only have two from the AT-TE. All my battle pack clones are looking places. Quote
RileyC Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 Out of many, I only have two from the AT-TE. All my battle pack clones are looking places. um... ive only got 1 clone thats looking straight forward out of 9. Quote
Future74 Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 I just got the AT-OT and Dropship and my Clone Pilots both are badly smudged!The first one has smudges and the other pilot had a grey line coming through his eyes! I dont know if you can call it badly smudged, but yes, mine arent printed as they should be. The regular clone helmets (front view) have white stripes where they should have been all black and the red markings on the helmet of the clone pilot seem faded. I'll make and post up pictures tonight. It seems the quality checks by Lego have slipped up... Quote

legoblockman Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 I actually don't have any clones looking straight forward!! I got 2 clones looking right and 2 looking left in a battle pack. Quote
Commander Flash Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 As I said a ton of posts ago, it could be usefull as a scene. Natman's picture is an example of that Quote

And don't you get all bold on me... :laugh: I still think that the eyes were done like that on purpose though. It would be quite the mistake... Didn't offend me in any way at all, I was just making a statement. That would have to be some mistake, though, for pepole to have so many. And booger540, by left-looking clones do you mean in the clone's point of view, like these eyes? -> Or do you mean the other way (right-looking in the clone's point of view)? I mean left-looking as in to my left, and to their right. Like these ---> Though I have tons of both, and few straight looking clones. Quote
keetong Posted April 18, 2009 Posted April 18, 2009 I known tons of people have probably already said this, but I've got two that look to one side and two that look to the other side. I'm guessing it was intened. I don't know but does it really matter, they've got the helmets on so you don't see it Quote
Eskallon Posted April 18, 2009 Posted April 18, 2009 Well I have two clones and both of which are straight looking. One from that Jetix magazine and the other from the v-19 torrent. Quote
CloneCommanderDelta7 Posted April 19, 2009 Posted April 19, 2009 (edited) If it was a misprint, then it would be a big one, there has been numerous sets including Clone Wars clones and to have misprints in them all. I don't see that possible. Is this topic for minifigure misprints or for all misprints? Edited April 19, 2009 by CloneCommanderDelta7 Quote
sinoxp Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Hey guys. Sorry for reviving a dead thread but I just took some time to take pictures of my misprinted figure. Just wanted to share... Quote
Big Cam Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Hey guys. Sorry for reviving a dead thread but I just took some time to take pictures of my misprinted figure. Just wanted to share... wow, thats the worst I have ever seen! Quote
Erdbeereis Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 I think it's pretty cool. Very interesting, I wonder how that happened... Quote
-JD- Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 It probably was not inserted into the printing tray correctly. Pretty funny though. In the BPs, I always get two looking left, one straight and one right. It must be purposfully done if it is the same in every BP. Quote
AND3RSEN Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Hey guys. Sorry for reviving a dead thread but I just took some time to take pictures of my misprinted figure. Just wanted to share... ERG. my clone gunner from the BP has the same problem! cool misprint! i wish had one like that Why would yo want a misprint? Quote
ILikePi Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Why would yo want a misprint? They look cool, are one of a kind, and might be worth a lot. Quote
