Quality paint in the Sideshow final product

You remember the promotional photos of the "clone 501"?
do you have the "clone 501"?
what do you think about the quality paint in the Sideshow final product?

Don't buy him then

Nothing new, SS has had final paint issues since the beginning of the SW line. (if you continue to buy SS SW products I'm afraid it's something you'll have to deal with)

well, but the Lt Clone trooper has a real dusty armour and the 501 has a "real white armour". Where is the Quality Control in this product?

Where's the quality control in this product?

That's what your mom said when you popped out

To be fair they arent going to use any other that a1 paint for the promo shots and production is always going to have varying quality
Shame but that's the way It is

Agreed... and I'm trying to understand the necessity for another thread where the whinning can met a crescendo.

Thread needs to be merged so all the people still crying over this can have group.

Sideshow ain't Hot Toys. Sorry.

I thought the paint on this piece looked good, at least from the few photos I've seen of it online.

It's not as weathered as the prototype, but far from bad. The chicken littles are having a Sideshow-hating bowel movement AEM.

ATM, don't you mean AEM (at every moment)

Fixed it.

Yeah, the weathering isnt what was on the box and that sucks but the apps themselves are really nice. That pic of Flint is awful he is really good looking in hand.

That, and Pam Voorhees are all he has. And that flint pic becomes irrelevant when you see in-hand shots:

Pretty much

Obviously so:



I think the call for better a prototype to production piece paint job is legit here.

well,why dont you try to do it better?
and obviously it is called a prototype.just like new cars.it aint always what you saw on the first pics when the product is finished.
i got 5 SS clones,and i think they look pretty damn good.
if you like it,buy it,if you dont,well ,you know the answer ;-)

See, now? This very debate stands as justification for the argument I have been making from jump street.


Stop weathering/battle damaging the armored troops!
