[QUOTE="Joe, post: 272528, member: 440"] Removing dents is easier than you'd think, just have to persevere and be careful. I wouldn't touch the ink, even if you do remove it there will definitely be an indentation left behind (tried it before ;)) and tbh it's all part of the piece and it's history. I do not believe the name change was done by anyone at Palitoy, it was likely done on the secondary market by a dealer or even by a collector. I have seen at least 2 other identical figures with the name corrected (so my bet is on a dealer). [/QUOTE]
