Bad Paint Apps And Deformed Heads - TVC 3.75-Inch VC146 Luke Skywalker (Crait)

A lot of our readers have been sending in reports of extremely bad paint applications and some deformed heads on The Vintage Collection 3.75-Inch VC146 Luke Skywalker (Crait) figures. I checked the ones I have and sure enough one looks terrible (left in picture) while the other looks ok (right in picture).

Per the date stamps readers sent in, it seems that cards stamped with 912xx have the most issues, while cards with 913xx have the least issues. Hasbro's "Photo Real Technology" was suppose to improve the paint applications making this a thing of the past, but it seems Hasbro had some issues in the earlier runs of this figure.

The Vintage Collection 3.75-Inch VC147: Death Star Gunner has been added to our HD Photo Gallery. Hasbro did a great job on the sculpt. If I had to complain about one thing it would be the antenna on his helmet is a bit thick, but I assume they did this to give it some structure so it does not curl over. He includes a Blaster.

Received a bunch of request to Photograph The Vintage Collection 3.75-Inch Kylo Ren figure from 2018, so here you go. Kylo includes a Lightsaber and Saber Hilt. The Saber Hilt is suppose to attach to his belt over his right hip, but on the sample I have that is not happening due to paint clogging the slot that the Hilt pushes into.

Also people were asking if this figure was ever released without the taped bubbles and the answer is yes, so I have also included images of both for those interested.

Variations:
• Taped Bubble
• Bubble Not Taped

Added to our HD Photo Gallery tonight is The Vintage Collection 3.75-Inch VC:142 Captain Phasma figure. Included with this figure is  a Blaster Rifle. I was going to pop the head off to take some photos without her cape on, but on the sample I have the head would not pop off without the risk of breaking it, so I just left it as is.

If you have not seen this yet, EA has released a extended Cut of the Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Official Gameplay Demo which is almost 27 minutes long and all I can say is WOW, this is going to be a awesome game.

"Order 66 has been executed. Once, staying alive meant hiding your abilities. Now, you must embrace them. Use the Force to manipulate your environment, master lightsaber combat, explore dangerous terrain, and remain one step ahead of the Empire."

Sneak Peek - TVC 3.75-Inch VC140: Imperial Stormtrooper

I have had The Vintage Collection 3.75-Inch VC140: Imperial Stormtrooper figure for about a month or so, but I held off on photographing it due to poor paint applications on the samples I had. After ordering a few more this is probably about the best one out of the 4 I have. I will try and get the rest of the photos done in the next day or so.
