Evening, right the last couple of days I've been looking at a well known auction site, and have come across a few skinner figures which seem to be a different colour in the trousers, seen one which is almost a horrible green colour to one being really sky blue, I'm thinking sun damage (maybe) anyone eles ever come across this

Pics, yes. Links, no. I've never heard of such a thing. The Hasbro color "variances" annoy me, though.

Holy hell that is a huge difference. My skinner has light blue.

I don't think that's a variant. I think that's either an amateur repaint or discoloration.

The photo filter might also exaggerate the difference

In those photos, everything is a different color.

I must add these are not from the same seller. Just something I saw while on ebay and thought it was a massive difference as all the other skinners look the same so they stood out

I'm sticking with either a custom paint job or "Dusty's Boots" syndrome, as I've taken to callng it.

I don't see that as any kind of factory variant.
It's just sun damaged + I agree with others who have commented that the photo filter has made all the figures look a little different. Darker.

Oxydation is the correct term.
