Sorry for creating a thread for this, I've searched for 15 minutes on the forum as I could have sworn it was already mentioned.
I received Bam Bam in the post yesterday.
Its a figure that was high up on my wishlist and Im glad to own him, but I paid the equivalent of $50 for it and was disappointing by the sloppy, chipped and uneven yellow paint.
I was also disappointed by the black table accessory as this is my third one in two weeks ha ha ( a personal preference, not Mattel's fault for packing in a table)
My main issue though is there are no tattoos on the right side of his head - Im pretty sure this was an issue on a batch and not just mine? Can anybody confirm that Im not alone in this?

I kept mine MOC because it looked like the tattoos on his head were botched as well. It isn't a big deal to me because it looks fine in the box, but if I had been planning on taking it out of the box I would have been ticked. Mattel is good at handling issues like this though. Contacting them and requesting a manufacturer's coupon for a new one may be worth a try.

I'm usually pretty chilled out about QC issues as they're mass produced, but the huge black chip in the middle of his belly and the botched tattoos was a bit frustrating. Especially considering what I paid. Thanks again! |

Mine's like that too. Look carefully and you'll see the paint app has been incorrectly applied to the back of his head

Is it like its doubled up on the back of his head or something? Yup, it's a double hit on the back of his head I'm afraid. The left side's alright but the right is wrong |

The left side's alright but the right is wrong Cheers for that. It was an annoying issue, but its comforting to know its not just mine if that makes sense? Just like Regals warped legs. I know two other guys that had the same issue. Its almost a relief lol |

No food or toilet breaks. Just water from time to time and buckets under the desk. 3 of them sadly didn't make it to see you share the link. The losses were unfortunate, bit I clearly didn't hire the right team. |

I got mine in California and the right side of his head has his tattoos and matches the Legends Bam Bam. I think you're right about it being a batch issue. Sucks that the errors are out there.

At least you guys get the TNF Elites >( /salty MAN... I f'n asked Walmart over A MONTH AGO if we were getting these and they said they'd get back to me. THEY STILL DON'T KNOW. How does walmart NOT know what walmart carries? Pathetic. I don't think we'll see em bro... Gotta love WMC...really nothing new since e39 for a YEAR and they skip right to the best of legends series. Now I REALLY want Magnum but how sh*tty is it gonna be to have to look at shelves full of guys I already OWN for ANOTHER year. The new year is gonna be make or brake for me. If we don't see tatanka and boogey and brutus I'm f'n done and selling my collection - this is just ridiculous. |

Here in Canada, Walmart isn't getting them period, not sure where you're located though. |
