Got any Cheap Toys with apparent factory errors? Post your Cheap Toy oddities HERE! First up: Legendary CAMOUFLAGE Green Alice Island, I bought this toy in 2008 sight-unseen from a Canadian collector who had some Series 2's and was surprised when I opened the box to find this! Its a Pea Green with BROWN Marbling! This is the best Factory Error I have personally discovered in 12 years of collecting Cheap Toys. Plus, seeing actual brown coloring in a Cheap Toy is unheard of. The only color in the Cheap Toy canon that could mix with Pea Green to make that brown is Orange, yet Orange was not released with the Canadian Cheap Toy line, only Green, Blue, Red, Peach, and Aqua. These were produced in Hong Kong, not Canada, but still a real mystery. Here she is!

It could be red, but I am pretty sure red would make the marbling more gray or black, rather than this brown. Damn, my 10,000th Post on UG!!! Thanks for EVERYTHING Cory, this site has brought me so much joy over the years. I just hope my presence here has helped more than it hurt UG's success. SO many cool people have passed through these halls over the years, GPK has the best fan base of any hobby!

I don’t know, I think Russ should be frozen at 9,999 unless he makes that picture his permanent avatar. If it’s good enough for Tinder it’s good enough for the UG,

That looks stained to me, lots of old figures from the 80s especially red jiggly figures stained figures very easily. I have many mini figures from other lines that leeched colors from another figures. I'll try to put some pics together.
