My figure may be a misspaint

Posted in Action Figure Chatter

Whats up guys, I just got my Greg Capullo Batman figure through the mail today that I been pretty pumped up about and the first thing I notice in the package it looks like Batman is wearing Black lipstick. His lips and the detail in his chin are literally painted black... Has this happened to anybody else or just mine. The pics of the figure on the internet his lips don't look that shaded. Anybodys input would be pretty great kinda mad about this

I have seen something similar to what you are describing. Last Christmas I saw a Star Wars Black Series Rey and BB-8 at my local Ross store. BB-8 looked like he had rolled through some black top sealant, and Rey looked like she had a 5 o'clock shadow. Even though it was only $8 I passed.

His elbow joints were super tight and I was trying to bend his arm and the plastic rod inside his forearm (glove) snapped in half. It broke in the perfect place though krazy glued it back on and its fine

It literally looked like he just made out with cat woman. I took some nail polish remover and a toothpick and and scraped it out looks much better. I just broke off where his glove meets the elbow joint though. I like the sculpt but made very cheap

Now I'm wondering if it's a bootleg, parts shouldnt be snapping off for no reason unless the plastic is brittle, which it shouldnt be because the limbs are usually made with flexible (when heated) plastic.

Errors like that are rare but they happen. It's extra weird that the figure's lips are black, maybe the factory worker used the wrong color by accident.

Exchange it if you can, though I've never had luck exchanging things based on a small error like that. As an aside, it's part of the reason I started customizing.
