There's definitely a bit of jaundice on ol' Henry but probably not enough to ruin what seems to be a good figure overall. Credit where its due for these.

those seams are still visible on EVERY figure.
he just can't produce a figure where the front and back torsos connect seamlessly. must be a problem with their printing process.

yep, and it's sad - he's released a bunch of figures now. he is still making them in the same way as the first, there's no evolution of manufacturing on display here
why do the torsos not align?? that's a basic part of the prototype/design, and yet he's still signing off on figures that don't line up
now he's signing off on figures where there's a massive gap between the head and torso
these are basic fixes that could have been resolved 4 figures ago

By looking at the pictures I regret buying these. I'm not buying anymore from him until he can produce a price matching quality retro figure.

I received my Godwins and Savio last night. The Godwins are okay , the seams as others pointed out don’t look good. As with all other G&G releases they don’t have the shine. With the Godwin's it is a lot more noticeable as the paint looks dull. I would say a middle of the road release , not terrible but certain not great figures. Would I judge these figures harder if they were zombies yes , as I expect higher quality from him given double to triple the wait time. Savio I think turned out great. A good choice in the pose selection, the cut in the hair/ scars. The molded lettering. I’m really happy with savio . The shine issue doesn’t seem nearly as noticeable . Savio might be my favorite G&G release so far . I’ve purchased all but smoke train , can’t believe anyone purchased smoke train but thats a different convo.

To me, the heads on the Godwins don't have the same Hasbro-feel as his MOM figures

Been a lot of talk about ZSTs booger being too small but I don't think I seen anyone posting anything about Mo looking way too big standing next to Mabel? Mabel was a head taller and 200 lb heavier than Mo...

I feel like the Godwin faces don't look as Hasbro-like as the MOM, even Ahmed. But taken together, these figures look really great.
The MOM especially might be the best Retros done (def the best outside of Mattel)
