      Same thing with both of mine. After seeing STRs short and unboxing I messed with mine both times and do not have the same problems at all. They stand and have no chipping or scratches. I honestly didn't even have them displayed before this but seeing how good they looked not needing stands, I just left them in the display lol I was going to wait until I had a proper Kong to go with them.

    Btw the paint rub was noted on website as a warning to be expected.

    • @StevensToyReviews

      They have a Weibo, Twitter, Insta, and Facebook. What's their website?
      The warning some retailers listed:
      PS: The paint chipping *only occurs at the joints; there is no paint chipping on the figures' body.* The main body parts are mainly made of PVC, with only the joints made of POM material.
      I showed this is objectively, beyond any doubt, not true.

      I have the JP3 raptors and the new JP1/TLW raptors. I noticed the material is a lot tougherand thick where as the figures from last year had softer action figure like material. I think that as a result it leaves the new figures more vulnerable to paint defects.

    for anyone with tight joints in general for figures i recommend you use silicone grease, just a dab of it and your problems should ease up. I used it after my 1st form cell figuarts had super tight legs and i broke em, ever since? used silicone grease for overly tight joint figures

    I really don’t get how toy companies can still engineer their figures like this nowadays.
    If this figure was like $30-$40 I’d have no complaints. But for $90 this should’ve had some additional spacing between the sculpt and the joint so that contact shouldn’t be happening.
    I don’t hate this figure, I like the sculpt and it’s cool to get a V.rex figure that scales with the Hiya (GvK/GxK) Kong and the SHMA 2005 Kong. But for $90 it’s kind of a let down.

    • @StevensToyReviews
      @StevensToyReviews  14 днів тому +3

      And you touched on a lot of the stuff. This is the unboxing, not the review, so I didn't even go into the price versus what you get versus the scale of these versus anything else. What sucks is aside from I think maybe the neca King kong, there isn't another action figure of the big guy that the scale with. I totally get different companies, different scales or whatever you want to try to cope with, but that is an absolutely awful let down here. And trust me, I'm coping with everybody else. Such a disappointment. However, it doesn't mean these aren't fun to handle and mess around with LOL

    • @alc4528
      @alc4528 14 днів тому +1

      Bruh trust me this thing is amazing, plus I don’t think you understand the pricing. Hammond collection, neca, hiya, and super 7 are cheaper because these are massive companies mass producing them. This is a 3rd party company bearing the brunt of production and not creating nearly as many units so it’s a smaller production run. It’s actually pretty fairly priced when the beasts of the Mesozoic allosaurus is 120 and dasplaetosaurus is 140.

    I got the normal blue one and it is fine except the jaw. When I took it out the box the right side of the upper jaw was slightly concaved and the lower jaw couldn't close because of it. I heated the jaw up and closed the mouth and put some rubber bands around it to keep it shut in hoping the jaw would hold shape but it doesn't. I would say over the course of 2-3 days the jaw would slowly concave back to how it was when I opened it. It is annoying because I cant display it with its mouth open but other than that I love the figure.

    Well, I'll say this: its not that bad. I mean, it's bad for a display piece, but is there really an alternative? It should be the 20th anniversary of Peter Jackson's King Kong, but has Universal said a word about it? As of right now, this movie isn't going to have anything new coming out, so unfortunately until Universal sees the potential this has, this is all we've got.

Jaws not installed correctly, sometimes glued misaligned. Chipping at each joint (normal according to their site), and very limited ankle articulation. The New ones are much better.

    Okay guys I’m going to be trying to spread this message around. But we need a action figure of Alucard from Hellsing Ultimate, the only ones we have gotten are a chibi figure and a figure by revoltech that’s so old and expensive now that you would need to sell your family to the black market in order to get one; let alone if you can even find a place that has one. So I would like to ask for us all to come together a spread this message and hopefully if it gets wide spread enough, SHF or Figma or someone will make an Alucard figure and possibly a hellsing ultimate figure line. Will this work? I doubt it. But I’m willing to try. So please I ask for all of your help to spread this message around so that one day all us hellsing fans can finally be set fourth “On A Moon Lit Walk”
