GraphiQL weirdness (showing "undefined" as type of fields), or underlying issue?

Is this a bug in GraphiQL, or is it some underlying issue in the GraphQL server or the starwars schema?

An example is as follows;

		# created is the date this product was created in YYYY-MM-DD format.
		created: String!

Which is displayed as follows;
