sorry about the questions but...$15 buys an awful lot of roast.
overall, how would you rate the paint apps on the HoH figures? my focus is mainly on the faces. (and firefly most specifically) |

I don't have any myself. But, apparently these are being sold at FYE stores. It's worth a shot to check out and pick the best paint apps they might have.

Overall I thought the paint apps were done pretty well at least on mine, but I've seen a couple pics that were posted where maybe some touch ups may be necessary.
Here is my issue with SE on this one...I was trying to experiment with it a little, swapping out the lower arms with the 5 pack SE and the hands on the ver 3 SE...bad idea! The wrist split in half when I put the other hands in and the arm split (and tore) at the elbow when I tried to put the regular arms back in. Keep in mind I've done the boil n' pop a hundred times and never had a problem like that. It seemed the plastic was different so soft that when you heat it...it would literally just tear like cloth almost. Very disappointing! Everyone else seemed to be in great shape though for me Flint was the big winner out of this batch imo

Out of the 14 figures I got, only the Storm Shadows had minor paint app issues (on the forehead). So overall, paint quality was very good for me.

Did you open him or is he still in the box? The reason I ask is because I thought that too, but when I opened him that thing on his forehead was just dust and blew right off as soon as I took him out of the pkg

I opened one of them, the one I felt was less messed up. it was actually a chip in the paint.

how is the torso joint on yours? Mine is very loose and swivels all the way around too easily

When I got mine, it appeared that SS had some paint issues on his face, but apparently it was just how his face smooshed against the packaging. Same thing with the CG. No problems once opened. My firefly had a little flesh paint around the bottom of his mask which was easily scraped off
