>>7962160>>7962179>>7962187The surgery was a success. I don't think the lower jaw needs a matte coat at all, when comparing it to the repaint. Now that I've swapped the jaw, this is the absolute best Godzilla that NECA has done.
Also forgot to mention a couple of things with the repaint - the spines are painted a lot better, and also the lower right leg became separated from the upper. The entire joint housing seems like it wasn't glued in to the upper leg at all. I'll post a pic in the reply.
