Looks great to me. Everyone who is disappointed about them doesn't understand manufacturing costs. It'd be significantly cheaper to cast the head in whatever the bulk colour it is, which in this case is brown. The skin time difference probably isn't even that noticeable. Flash and cameras always makes it look worse.

Low standards don't just hurt you. They hurt the whole community.

I think that is the best full big bearded scan they have done for Bryan. I'd bet the head was cast in the hair color because it was the dominant space of the head. I'm sure they match up better in person. Camera flashes always make painted parts brighter/lighter.

I dig it. I'll be doing the same swap once my basic DB ships.

I have to believe Mattel will mold that head scan in flesh tone plastic in the future because of the awful response that scan has gotten on here. To be honest, I think the scan itself looks good, but the painted skin obviously ruins it. Hopefully, this was just a cost-cutting measure for the Basic figure and they'll change it once an Elite Bryan is released with that head.

I would've preferred it if they just used a rubber hair piece on the scan and molded the face out of the skin tone color instead.

I would've preferred it if they just used a rubber hair piece on the scan and molded the face out of the skin tone color instead. In a perfect world, yeah they could have done that as both we and they would have wanted. But the budget on these figures is too limited and they need to save costs where possible to spend budget wisely across the figures in a lineup. It's just not economical to do it that way. Plus, you then don't get the transition of the beard and his hair as it does in real life and the whole process of attachment becomes significantly more complicated. I just made sense to do it this way.
