  1. What is the physical quality of these figures like? I've heard things about the thin parts like blades etc. being "bendy" and so on, but I'm asking more about the detail level. Are they close to metal, or more indistinct like Clix figures? Thanks!

  2. Varies a bit from figure to figure. I can take some comparison photos of figs side by side with their metal versions for a few of them to compare. Generally I'd say they are a bit softer in detail. I would say they are about 80-90% the sharpness of their metal versions, so not bad. The bad issues tend to be more the ones that have suffered from mold shrinkage. It doesn't affect many but you can see that squashed depth effect on some.

    Speaking of clix detail it's annoying but most of the softness in detail is more due to the way they paint them. I've stripped back a few hero clix and the detail has been surprisingly sharp under the layers of thick paint.

    1. Yes, I stripped and repainted a Clix Batman once and it looked amazing.

      Anyway thanks for answering this question with photos in your newer post:)
