So this month all my toy purchases ended up being SHF releases. I've got a question for other SHF collectors, especially SHFSS.
The 2 times I've bought SHFSS, W and Skull, both actually have pretty serious QC flaws. The first W I had, actually had nubs sticking out of his damned forehead, it was so bad the store actually agreed to let me exchange it, the 2nd W I opened (at the store so they wont doubt me and can see for themselves), his scarf actually was unglued from the get go.
Then the Skull I got, also had extraneous nub sticking out of his fucking chin, like some badly made gunpla. It's real odd to me how Bandai insists on a windowless box for SHFSS but they actually have serious cosmetic QC issues, not just paint scraping/missing but actual extra plastic you can't easily fix yourself.
That being said, TMNT Leo and Gomora are really satisfying purchases. I'm confused by how the SHF Ultraman had serious joint QC issues too for me, yet Leo easily outshines even some SHFSS purchases in execution. Thankfully Gomora is fine. I ended up being a regular at this shop because the owner understands my gripe.
Anyone else experiencing this with the SHF/SHFSS line?
