Looks like top right side of the windsheild has a blemish.
I vaguely remember my original having a similar blemish.

I just checked an original team body and it's the same as yours. Not sure when the problem popped up though, and bummed AE didn't fix the issue.
I just thought I got a bad body....

Mine was original bought before AE discontinued them, not a re-re so to say.
I think it's safe to say Tower wont be carrying them anymore
This is the pic from Towers site which you can see the defect.
Looking closely at the picture you posted from the AE site you can still make out a defect.

Wouldn't the windshield banner from the sticker sheet cover it? If you wanted to use one of course.....

You can see the line in that one as well.

Dunno mate good question,though it's in the right hand window also... I'll check the front... I totally understand it's sometimes unavoidable and am thankful they are being re released so hope ae sticks with them for awhile....

I doubt the banner will completely cover the issue, it will help but not completely hide it.
For $15 though they still make a good race body.

If you're going to drive (and ruin) it anyways, it's not really a problem.

Just picked up one myself directly from associateds lobby about 2 weeks ago.There were a total of 6 bodies and I looked at each one while I was there. They all had upper windshield ,a pillar,and right window blemishes. Don said that the mold might be showing its age. There were a couple of painted ones on flea bay which also had the identical blemishes. Hope they fix the problem soon.
