I did some minor touch-ups on mine. I painted one's mask silver and the other I painted the eyes silver (so I have both versions). I also painted some silver on their boots, their buckles and pouch buttons (anything that looks like it should have been silver or metal and not just black). I also gave the backpack some minor silver trim (on the raised lines and on the cobra sigil). I also noticed that Hasbro might have mistakenly painted the braids incorrectly on his wrists. The artwork depicts them having two silver stripes/braids on their cuffs, but the figure looks like the braids are unpainted and the in-between part is silver (so I fixed that as well). I also painted their necks fleshtone.
BTW, I usually end up tweaking all of my figures like this (adding little touches to the paint apps. It always makes them look better and more detailed).
