Thats what I thought, however his arms are also 2 tone from the elbows down, which isnt an easy job to do !

Rivets stick out a bit from the back of his arms, I wonder if he has been shunted at the elbows ?
not an easy job tho.....

Must be a Mixture on playwear, Z force and GI Joe !

i think he's just old, you find different parts tend to fade differently! i have a storm shadow who has various parts white/yellow.

i haven't got a steeler yet and i do want one, when i first saw this one i thought great, then i saw the pic i felt a bit disappointed.

It could be paint fade..but I can't make out any traces of red on his torso (pisol or shirt),most likely a bodged up repair figure or could it be a super rare factory error?

He does seem to have z green at the bottom of the torso so it could be some extreme fade?
