Below are some images of the "new" 2019 Boba Fett VC09 re-release and what is wrong with it. Let"s start with the positive things. The cape has been shortened to the proper length and the joints that connect the boots to the legs match the color of the boots.
What's wrong with it? During the first run we had a running change that gave us the correct center stripe on the boots, the flat black shade on the mandibles, better matching orange on the knee armor plates. Those are now missing again, instead they went back to the first release of the figure missing the stripe on the boots, darker orange on the knees. greenish tint on the mandibles, yet not that strong of a green as would be correct for a ROTJ figure. The small sidearm is still wrong, yet comes painted in correct brown color. The Webleys grip was painted brown, the side shown needs to be bronze while the other side needs to stay gunmetal. And the skull on the shoulder? What the ...is that? Compare to a prievous release! The face of the figure is an improvement but not really needed. The killstripes on the helmet are now smaller. I prefer the slightly larger ones. Jetpack looks good. If you check the figures paintjob closely you will see that they seem to print the color on, at least it looks that way, notice the little dots! Don't like this technique. Doesn't look good. Very noticeable on the armor and boots. They print the faces like this but they should stay away from printing the entire figure using this technique.
Update: Got in another Fett, Skull emblem is messed up on it as well. Update: Habe einen weiteren Fett bei dem ebenfalls das Skull Logo schlecht gedruckt ist. Wohl kein Einzelfall.
