Hi All,
I just wanted to share with you some images of Movie figures I bought on E-bay. They seem to have Markings on them like inspection or rejection marks. The unpainted prototype figure I got also has an "H" burned into the plastic on his arm. The Snow Job has lettering on his upper shoulder and bottom of his jacket. The Neo vipers have the same lettering on them. I just wanted to check if anyone out there Knows what the markings represent. "Accept or Reject"? Thanks Last edited by Firefly007; 07-02-2009 at 10:58 PM.. |

I'm not entirely sure, but what I think the case may be is this. The "H" brand in the shoulder seems to be the first marking, which would indicate a mold test shot. The marker "HM" seems to be second which could indicate paint apps, and the third I've seen is an identifier such as "P17" or some other letter/number combination, which may indicate how far along it is in the approval process. Without knowing Hasbro's codes, it's all just a guessing game.
I have several of these too. I've found that the HM, usually will wipe off with some water and some pressure. the letter/number combinations though seem to be more permanent. |

you need to get them all, and then the code will be revieled.
supposedly, if you put them in the correct order, it unlocks a message from an alien civilization about disasters that are going to happen in our future, and eventually the end of the world. |

I believe someone said the "HM" stands for "Hasbro Master" on the forums here, but I tend to believe MrClean as nobody's got more test-shots than him!! NO ONE!! He rules the Test-Shot lands with an iron fist.
