When true fx headscans came out I wasn’t fully blown away, especially since we saw some funny mess ups with certain figures. They’re certainly not all flawless but for the most part mattel has really knocked it out of the park. I’ve now gotten so used to them that whenever I see an older elite they look so different and inferior in my eyes. I’ve been spoiled by true fx! how do you guys feel? curiou to hear other opinions.

That's exactly how I felt when Hasbro started using it. It's a night and day difference, at least when it's done correctly.

The new Finn Balor head is amazing. I used to think the rsc head was the best. Also Pete dunnes scan is incredible

I'm not convinced so far. They look great from a distance but up close, the paint apps appear fuzzy.

I agree. Out of all of them only 2 have disappointed me. Zayn looks like he’s rocking guy liner hard and one of the AoP members was printed a bit off. Otherwise? They’ve been exceptional.

The printing resolution (size and concentration of the "dots") is too low for me to mark out for them. They're more of a sidegrade than upgrade but I do tend to like them, especially on the shelf where the fuzzyness isn't noticeable.

50/50, on some figures they look great... They look good from a distance, up close they look like zombies or people that haven’t slept. My biggest gripe are the eyes, they look terrible. Another thing I noticed is that the printer doesn’t cover all of the facial hair and leaves spots blank. My Goldberg and Seth Rollins both have missing paint on their beards and the paint on Rollins extends to his nose.

I prefer the old heads.. ive have yet to see one without blurry eyes and the beards look awful to me. it looks like a child scribbled the beard on.

Wish I could just buy the heads. Hate buying basics to just throw the bodies in a 5h!t pile.

When they work they work, but damn, every Hawkins I've seen looks like a demon.

What is the process for this true FX scans? I wish mattel had that machine like at mall of america where a person stands in it and it scans the whole body and face with like 100 cameras and then makes an amazing replica of the person, mattel would just have to make it pose able. Even if they just used it for the face scans it would be amazing

Lol Would be cool to get one and just cut the head off and put it on a mattel body haha, not sure of the size difference though, and I think each figure is like $150 or something so not cheap..

Yeah I'm digging it. I've been picking up Basics just to swap heads onto Elites that had the old style. Just swapped Matt Hardy two days ago...

as long as it's a cheaper process which i think i read somewhere, and it allows more dollars put into new tooling and more attire deco i'm down with it. even though NAO and Goldberg and others look like zombie lepers
