    Iron Man

    Have a T2 Iron man.Is it common for some of these to have a black spot coming through the top of the head, through the red paint. What causes this? Thanks

    I've not heard of that. It's hard to know what could be causing that. It could be from contact made with some kind of contaminate or previous damage that was covered up and is coming back out because of paint wear. I would clean it good and probably just do the best you can to cover it cosmetically if it's something you're keeping for your collection.

            Hey, I think that you may have solved it. I gently rubbed the area with a damp cotton bud, and it seems to have gone. Something to bear in mind when storing these figures.
            Many thanks guys.
