Bugger! Is it normal for the face of the officer to go "White"? (I assume when nw they were more flesh tone?)

I think the 83 Troopers and Officers have paler faces in general. Mine do. Not sure about the 82 having a fading of the face paint. I would think that the darker parts of the figures would be light damaged as well if the face was faded from the OG color.

I have a couple of 83 Officers, both have literally pale (Near white) faces but the actual blue helmet is fine! I have an 82 head that is nice and flesh toned. I wasn't sure if the paleness was due to age or sun?

I just checked the Bellomo book and and his 83 Trooper and Officers have light white faces and the 82s are darker and more flesh tone.

Flesh tone paint will go white with excessive exposure to the sun... Sun Bleached if you will... but generally you see the corresponding darkening of the Blue on Troopers...
I have a couple of televipers who look like they're mimes underneath the helmet. |
