I recently went to gamestop to pick up high volt, but all their paint jobs SUCKED. I've heard good thing from the character, but the toys looked really bad. Did anyone else come across this or is it just me being picky? (By the way I picked up Smash Hit instead, who's character looked great, and my brother picked up dive clops, who is also great. Both
really fun characters.)

Pop Fizz just might be the best skylander ever. Even with a tuba. |

And yes, I know he is supposed to have dents, it's in his character. Just paint.

My High Volt looks amazing!
One of the best new looking characters in terms of paint job. It's a shame his looks gets ruined the more you upgrade him... Smash Hit's also fine but I simply don't like his figure to being with.

I've noticed how my High-Volt isn't the same color as his figure. Like he looks like a rusty white color in-game. But other than that my figure looks okay.

Is it because of that horrible armor upgrade which switches his color palette?

I think that the white, gold & black color scheme looks much better.

Good for you. I think it completely ruined one of my favorite characters' look. I didn't buy him to get stuck with that white abomination (gold is fine). V.V. needs to either understand the meaning of "subtle" or simply give us an option to toggle aesthetic changes on and off. Everyone would win! Fingers crossed for an update...

Oh, it could be... I mean, I don't really mind the color switch, just a little jarring to see the color of a character not mach the figure. |

To be fair we should also take into account V.V.'s engine lighting.
It's much more dynamic and realistic than TfB's so objects might change colors a lot under certain circumstances. The best look you can take at a character's true colors is probably the status screen.

Oh, ok.
Yeah that's a basic upgrade which cannot be avoided... Sadly.

And yet still not as bad as that purple snake armor thing Rattle Shake gets. I'm tempted to reset nm y Quickdraw RS to get the white color back.

Or Rubble Rouser's obsidian skin... If only those powers were triggered only when the health is low... At least we could still look at the characters we liked.

Love what he looks like when fully upgraded! He looks like a Nitro!
As for my figure, he looks pretty epic. Mine has a good quality paint job. He's one of my better looking figures.

My figure has a great paint job but some of the cardboard of the package stuck to it so it's left with a cardboard patch on it's right shoulder.
I am so happy to get him. He far exceeded my expectations.

My High Volt isn't as bad, he only has a tiny dot of white paint under one of his eyes.
