I bought the throwbot Scuba and it has an odd error on the printing on the back. Just goto (URL) take a look at it. I have these questions- 1. Is it printed on all Scuba's? 2. Has anyone else seen this error before? Thanks, Abe (25 years ago, 5-Jun-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, lugnet.technic)
