Do Lego Torso's have seams?

The Megaphone

So I've bought some minifigs for my kids (what I tell the wife :cool:) but have noticed that some have near identical seams on either side of the torso!!

Are these hairline cracks?

Just that I have never come across cracks running the entire length of the torso without some sort of splitting.

Thanks

I’m positive there was an issue with that colour plastic for some time in Lego. Nearly all my cheese slopes in the colour are broken. Outside of Lego Gold plastic seems to be really brittle anyway. Lego’s Brown bricks were also troublesome for a while. That’s not to say it’s not a knock off, but cracks in Lego are out there.

I’ve also noticed it in a number of shadow stormtroopers that I have, so very interesting it is linked to specific product colours so in turn specific figures!
