| Thought I'd share this interesting purchase today, found it shipped like this in its bag before being put on the shop shelf. Made in Tunisia. The pure white face is kind of cute ^^ [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| Sometimes it is incredible how these manufacturing flaws go through the quality control and can make their way to the shops. Fortunately, some collectors like you find these things interesting and sometimes those turn into special collectibles. Mainly when from a famous brand as Schleich are. I can't find now but there are some other similar examples of other figures from Schleich that we can find browsing this forum. Lucky cute snow face panda that found someone to take care of him, thanks also for sharing. |

| Yeah I have no idea how it got through quality control, but it's probably the most unique piece in my collection now. I have a few interesting finds but none are as sweet looking as this one He was going to be sent to the damages department and then probably be written off, and I couldn't let that happen when there's a nice spot for him with lots of friends in my display cabinet |
