Hello everyone, it's been a long time since I posted something here and I'm still fairly new. Anyways this is kind of a 2 in 1 post. First off I wanted to share the issue I have with the figure I received. The FX print seems to be off of the sculpted details of the mask. For example, the right nostril print is slightly underneath the actual sculpt of the nostril instead of being directly inside of it as the other nostril. Also the teeth look like they are going inside the area of the mask where it should just be black. The upper right side of the forehead you can see some of the white paint of the mask printed onto where it should also normally be black. Are you guys experiencing similar issues? Am I being too picky?

Sorry, I added the pics but for some reason they aren't appearing in my post... Any suggestions?

Some people have reported similar issues, but others haven't had a problem. I think it's just sort of the nature of TrueFX, and ordering a figure is always going to be a crapshoot, deco-wise.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the feedback. Is there a better way to include images into your post without a image hosting service? I dragged and dropped those two pics into my thread when I first posted but when I actually submitted it, the pics disappeared. I've never posted pics here and I'm a little lost on how it works, sorry

I've never posted pics here and I'm a little lost on how it works, sorry [ img src="image address here" ] Remove the space after the open bracket and before the close bracket and you should be good to go.

No you are not being picky. This has been an ongoing problem with this figure.

No you are not being picky. This has been an ongoing problem with this figure. I’m trying to tell myself that it’s no big deal and the fiend’s mask is supposed to be all distorted and crazy looking anyway. The stuff I’m complaining about is microscopic and the figure still looks like the Fiend when it’s on the shelf. When you look at it closely, you can see the issues. Still a top notch figure overall but me paying close to $40 for it and the mask being a focal point of this figure, I feel like Mattel should have put more care into it.

Really there were so many things that could go wrong with this figure. It’s such a toyetic character, and it’s tough to nail every detail of it. I hope the rumored Ultimate Edition Fiend has the issues fixed and extra accessories.

FX prints tend to be off on many figures...It's not exclusive to the Fiend. This is why when ordering online, I try to order multiples when possible, choose the best one, and return or sell the others.

Picture honestly doesn’t do enough justice on just how misplaced and miscolored the scan is. No business using the true fx on a masked character like the fiend. Looking closely at the mask just shows hideous multicolored pixelation like a printer running out of ink. There’s a spot on his cheek that never got filled in, random spot of base skin tone. This is a bad figure.
Honestly wish I didn’t sell my custom, wasn’t expecting it to be better than mattel’s. Guess I’ll sell it off and see if the UE is any better. Really disappointed.

You seriously think your Fiend looks better? Sorry but I strongly disagree sir.

Yeah, I mean, that's probably better than I could ever do, so I'm not gonna knock it for that, and it sucks that some people aren't getting a decent app on the face print, but I feel like Mattel really nailed it on the ones that came out right. Easily my figure of the year, thus far.

I know I am when I make something similar to an official release.
