Update: For those having these issues like me, support told me they found the bugs and will fix them, also:

There's presently a work around but it's awkward. If you greatly increase the "scale" values on all the scatter nodes that will help the glowing eyes look.
The second part is the Blinn node is totally broken. (also a high priority bug) for the moment you could use a specular node in it's place but it would look different.
