Hey guys. I stopped buy my local Marshalls today to see if the series 1 twopacks they had gotten for Christmas went on clearance. Sure enough they were down to $3 each. They had 6 packs left, three of which had my favorite figure, Lethal Whip. Two packs had the FE color Lethal Whip, one had the regular.... wait a sec.... something was odd about this figure. Much to my delight, the figure was a factory error with a missing paint application. I've only had a few factory error toys in my lifetime, most of which were just blister bubbles attached off-center. If that even counts. Anyways, today I am the proud owner of a factory error, one of a kind, Lethal Whip. I think one other member here has reported encountering a factory error fig, who was that... may SD?.? Anyone else have a figure in their collection that just ain't right?

I had a Mimeticus with two of the same arms. Can't recall if it was 2 left or 2 right, though.

Yeah, I got a Magmion with an unpainted tail:

Paint errors are fairly uncommon I think, at least compared to gluing errors (badly glued limbs or globs of glue on the outside of figures) anyway

I picked up a turtle, the seer/ atomic darkness two pack from walmart yesterday and found that the turtle's card stated that his power was 6. However there are 7 red boxes filled in. Anyone else notice this?

I have quite a few factory error hotwheels cars.
I also have a ghostbusters ghost (jail jaw) that has the plastic pellets not fully melted, so it has a polka dot effect to it.

Got a Firespitter recently, and he's missing the yellow paint wash on his right arm spikes. Oddly, his fingertips are painted:
