I bought a POC Snake-Eyes and I noticed the eyes and the area around them have been painted. They're all like this. However, the visor on mine is glued in place. I've noticed lately that more of the ones I see on the store shelves have the visor raised a bit or lowered a bit. Did Hasbro make a change and make the visor movable? It seems stupid that they put a paint app on the figure that can't really be fully appreciated. I tried to put my Snake-Eyes' head in boiling water to see if I could loosen the glue and pull the visor's plugs out but it seemed like all I would do was damage the figure. Any ideas?
