Figure looks great if you close your eyes and imagine the render they showed during pre orders

Bill needs his eyes checked. How does some of this stuff pass QC
I can’t imagine a room full of people sitting around looking at this tights color and saying that looks good. If so, you all need your eyes checked
And if $45 ain’t a premium figure that we had to buy before the end of a deadline and could only go off the render.. this is inexcusable.
If you have an “ultimate” line.. it better be ultimate

It could be an instance where the factory was at fault. An error. And when Mattel received the shipment it was too late and too expensive to have every figure redone. Makes much more sense than Bill and his team all being ok with that color, or not noticing it was wrong.

Legit, if someone does want theirs based on the final product, I’ll give you what you paid plus shipping.

The problem is Bill and team's track record being not so good when it comes to this kind of stuff. |

Does it really matter? As someone who doesn’t believe in or support the secondary market at the end of the day it has no bearing whatsoever on my life. I ordered a couple from Mattel for my collection and they’ll get here when they do. So whatever someone wants to do with theirs whether they bought it or Mattel gave it to them to review doesn’t affect me at all. I just don’t see the point in getting worked up over something like this. |

I just really don’t understand why people are so fired up about this? This is a hobby it’s supposed to be enjoyable so why get upset/stressed out over something you have no control over? It just sounds petty. |

And they’re perfectly justified in being upset just as much as you or anyone else is justified in not being bothered by it. You’ve been fired up lately… |

You’ve been fired up lately… But I guess I am asking why even bother drawing attention to it by bringing it up? It’s not something that will ever change and if we aren’t the ones buying or selling it why bring more negativity to the boards? Because in general you know there’s going to be people who will be raging over it like in the past when this topic is brought up. |

For anyone who may be going to eBay for this, maybe they don’t wanna provide profit to someone who got it for free. And if you wanna get the negativity off the boards, I don’t think I’m the one you should be focusing your energy on. |

And if you wanna get the negativity off the boards, I don’t think I’m the one you should be focusing your energy on. I am a firm believer that People shouldn’t want to provide a profit to anyone whether the seller got it for free or bought it with the intention to resell it with any new items. I have no issues with people selling of things from their collection just not things that are new releases which they only purchased for a quick profit. And I wasn’t saying you were the negativity but you know there’s going to be members here that if/when they see it will go into full rage mode. (I would list some but we all know who they are and I don’t feel like adding the fuel to the fire. lol) |

Well I've got no issues with discussing on a discussion forum, good or bad
Its not a positive wrestling figure forum. Its not a negative wrestling figure forum. Its a wrestling figure forum.
Rage on
Decision makers lurk in these threads
They should have the same energy for critisms when they do something poorly as they do for compliments when they do something well
Also, I do not care where the errors take place along to production process. It doesn't matter. They were made and not corrected. No statement was made by Mattel. No emails were sent out for those who purchased it. No make goods. No coupon code. I don't care if it happened on the first step or the last step.

Because in general you know there’s going to be people who will be raging over it like in the past when this topic is brought up. It just seems a bit like you have a problem with people discussing on a discussion forum. More than half of all the posts in this thread have an issue with the figure But you pick out a few posts here and there to counterpoint and not even with objectivity I say let them rage on Decision makers lurk here and they need to see critiques when they do something poorly in the same light as they see compliments when they do something well Its a forum about a hobby. Not the positive side of the hobby. Not the negative side of the hobby. Just the hobby. I know and I mentioned my complaints about the figure in this thread as well, (and many of the complaints are warranted but also some were unrealistic) but this was nothing to do about the figure design. It was about an influencer scalping the figure he received to review. And I just didn’t see the point of opening up that can of worms so I asked why do it? He gave his reasons and that was that. |
