Their technique has NOT changed in 5 years for their realistic figures.
So you're technically correct. Yep, i am cherry picking by using examples that feature their low resolution sticker technique, instead of anime figures that don't.
And i did post an example of how DCC and HAsbro use the printed technique here:
>>7557109They use it in conjunction with tampographs and spray masks, so it doesn't look like washed out low res magazine picture that's been laying out in the sun for a week.
Your example shows how they only use the low res sticker OVER regular paint apps as well, as highlights, instead of a replacement for real paint apps like Bandai does.
Again, Bandai is cutting corners by using it to replace needed tampographs/spray masks, hence bare colored plastic showing underneath. Whereas a children's toy company is spending that pretty nickel to layer paint apps.
Nevermind the fact Bandai seems to believe that the low resolution sticker is a good substitute for an actual sculpt.
