I posted in the repair/fix forum. Mine has some scratches or chips as well. Two of the groin panels didn't get the speckled/sparkly finish. I got it from HLJ.
Pretty shameful for a toy over $250, I expect more care for it.
Has anyone gotten one of the second release which doesn't have the paint-related QC issues?
I have a sealed factory case of the first release and was looking to get one of the 2nd release to display loose, but now I'm a little concerned.
Which brings us to where we are today...
I have a second release from Amazon Japan and I can't fault it.
A few people, both here and elsewhere have noted that there were paint chips and scuffing to the helmet and chest and that some of the groin plates haven't had metallic paint applied to them.
I wanted to make sure these were just cases of individual figures which slipped under the radar of the QC process, rather than issues which consistently affected the entire release.
Sounds like the head and chest issues aren't endemic to the whole release. What about the issue with metallic paint not being applied to all the groin plates?
