| I got this for first time:
It is not new. All the studs on the top are whitish and not 100% blue. It looks
strange. I am not sure if this is faded or not. If it is faded, it is faded in
a consistent way.
Let me know if you have or had this baseplate in the past and how you find mine
( it has dust on it but that is not an issue)

I would say it is sun damage.

Not sun damage.
If that was the case, then the blue should be of a darker hue or in the worst
case, lighter.
This is very similar to wear and print rub off the studs.
If one looks, you have to agree that the actual baseplate is White, and the Blue
is the print...

looks like playwear to me. A lot of kids used these baseplates to build mocs.

The baseplate is actually molded in white with the blue and black being painted
on. What you are seeing is play wear on the studs in which the blue paint is
rubbing off and exposing the white plastic underneath.
