I didn't take much to "fire it up", ( lucky), and to my surprise it had the 2.02 bug.

Q. I thought the 2.02 bug would have been ironed out in the Red Dot versions,
would there have been many V2's that went under the radar ?

My Congratulations!
I have also an HP-35 Version 2 but without the 2.02 bug. It came from France and has a french back label. I have no information about when the bug was detected and replacement was offered. Only 25% of customers used the offer. If I ever build an ACT for the HP-35, I could easily implant the 2.02 bug
