19" long body, 8" wide, some.. what.. 4" tall? Lets figure something like 20x10" raw sheet material. Convert to metric... around 1300 square centimeters. A 6 gram change in plastic.. would only be a change of .0023 inches. While that's unlikely, a change of ~a thou~ is reasonable.

Now i'm wondering what the usual variation in body weight is.

To add to the data presented earlier by RobK, I'll go weigh my single color HPI R-34 body later this morning.
