Tali paint app.... not too happy

Is this normal GH quality or did I just get unlucky?

Well, you certainly didn't get lucky...... that's for sure!

That makes the worst SS statue seem like a custom. I'd send it back!

I don't have a lot of faith in GH but that's really bad even for them......just WOW.

How did that even get out the door?!

I'll post some pics of mine later. But suffice to say that while mine is still not great, yours is considerably worse than mine. I do have some red on the white part of mine too though, why they decided to do this is I don't know.

In my experience Garrus and Liara had sloppy paint. This is especially disheartening when you consider how downgraded the prototypes were from the in-game models to begin with. Was kind of hoping this would've improved by now. I guess the over year long delay wasn't to insure quality. This is why I cancelled all the rest of my Gaming Heads orders, with Tali as my last. I just want Prime1 or someone who gives a ---- to get the Mass Effect license and do these characters justice.

A lot of the paintwork on tali is really good. Impressive actually. Everything except the shawl/"cloth" part of her is very well done imo.

indeed, also it really should be almost gold, it's more like a dirty white.

Scuff marks are fine, but good grief it shouldn't be almost "see through"... it looks like they just slapped a couple coats over the purple and called it good.

And I agree, the rest of the paint app is fine. Why they couldn't do it right all over is beyond me.

I'd be in serious trouble if Prime1 got a hold of the line. I literally only collect Witcher and Mass Effect and I'm already dreading how much money I'm shelling out for Witcher.
