Sorry if thais has been posted on this forum but I havent seen anything yet. Just wanted to make everyone aware that there is a pretty bad error on most AOP basic figures hitting the shelves and that is that a lot of the Akam figures have Rezars head but with a differently painted beard. They are actually supposed to have different heads. So be aware and pay close attention if you find them. Akam with repainted Rezar head close up Akam with correct head close up: Error figures: Correct figures:

Need a closeup of the MOC heads to confirm, but they look correct to me.

It's true, at first glance it is hard to tell the difference. I saw someone post this on twitter, so I went back to look at the ones I bought they had the same head. Good thing I found a correct about a week later.

Looks like the wrong head was placed on the body.

Looks like the wrong head was placed on the body. Exactly. But its a mass error. Ive seen about 10 akam figures and they all have the wrong head.. really frustrating

Yep. Took a second look at mine the other day and coulda sworn they were the same figure. Unfortunately I opened both before I noticed the difference and now with it verified I'm pretty pissed. Hoping mattel fixes for those that bought. Will be contacting them today.

so the black pants is supposed to have the taller looking head with the part under the bottom lip painted while brown pants is supposed to have the shorter rounder head without paint under the bottom lip and arm tattoo? looks like your error figures both have the wrong head. And just checked and my black pants has the wrong head Gotta return that.

Mattel definitely needs to be accountable to correct this. This is more than just a paint smudge. This is a complete part error and a significant one at that. MattelDesignTeam

I know this might be ignorant, but are these figures only available at Target? And are they currently out right now?

a friend of mine picked these up for me and dropped them off tonight. Sure enough I too got a Akam with Rezar head.
Did anyone also notice that the side pieces that come with these for the NXT table are the opposite from which the package shows? or is this another error?
Rezar packages shows it coming with the left side but I got the right side piece
Akam with rezar head package shows it coming with the right side but I got the left

Guess even Mattel cannot tell the difference between them.

To avoid this look at the ears , one of them has deeper ears while the other has a more cauliflowered ear sculpt, next look at the brow of the nose one is wider than the other. The different head sculpts are still very similar but you can see the mentioned differences in the package.
