So I've gotten Andrade, Elite Shane, Elite Corbin and the Shane/Dean battle pack (among others) but these particular figures have a newer, unrefined and almost sparkly paint used to their eyes and eyebrows. I don't know how else to explain it and I can't upload a pic cause I'm at work but it looks so cheap! Please Bill, don't tell me you're going to be using this method for eyes and eyebrows from now on. If you need a real good comparison, anyone that has the Dean/Shane BP can see that Shane has the new less refined eyebrows and Dean has the usual eye paint.

Same with me. It seems to be getting worse.

I noticed it on my Almas and on the new Neville... But my Elite Corbin is perfectly fine, so who knows.

That Neville looks like they used crappy dot matrix on the eyes.

My biggest pet peeve is missing eyebrow paint. I hate it. I'm constantly buying figs and having to either buy the basic version to head swap or track down another cuz of stupid eyebrow paint. I feel like even when I do head swaps the eyebrow paint is so cheap it chips from sitting in warm water for 30 secs. Def not the quality when mattel first started.

Eh, it's not a new problem. I've noticed this for a very long time. The eyebrow paint never align with the actual eyebrows fro some reason or the actual eyebrows are way too thick. I usually have to end up fixing mine and it makes them look a whole lot better. I think Mattel suffers from this and bad paint jobs on facial hair and hair as well.

Same, when I opened Almas, the first thing I thought was, "If they just trimmed, lowered, and tilted the eyebrows...". "Eye" don't mind eyes being glossy, as long as they fit inside the eyelids on the sculpt. With Almas, I noticed part of his left eye is painted on the upper lid. This is all small potatoes, but it's something to talk about while we wait for SDCC.

Yes!! I bought a MOC RSC exclusive Scott Hall on eBay, when I received it the first thing I noticed was a gap in the paint on his right eyebrow. Looks like the barber dropped the clippers & shaved right down the middle of it. 💩 It's a flawless figure otherwise.

As far as eyebrows goes, I HATE when they have the indent for the eyebrow in the molding, but it's painted way above it. Happens all the time and it looks awful.
