Dirty GITD Cynder? [CLOSED]

I was wondering if anybody has had a similar experience with this figure? I bought a used one recently off of eBay only to have it sent to me with dark discoloration on both the undead base and the figure itself. I blame this the plastic being used on this figure and or the coating that is used to make it gitd. Looking at other auctions pictures for this figures I can see the same thing happening to them as well. Does anyone know of a way to get this figure back to a better condition? Perhaps as certain cleaner? It is as if someone rolled the figure up in newspaper. Overall I am pretty disappointed with quality of the figure. GITD Sonic Boom and Fright Rider look nothing like this

The GITD mold they used on her was absolutely awful. It actually picks up paint from other figures.

If I was to rub GITD Cynder's wing against, say, Jet Vac's gun, it will pick up the paint off of Jet-Vac, and Cynder will have a nice blue scar on her. DON'T scratch it off, because you can actually scratch the mold off of her.

She gets the award for "Worst Variant".

Well the baby wipes worked to get the surface garbage off but other than that the multi-colored scratches remained. I am so disappointed in this figure. I am glad I just bought it used and didn't sink more money into it. I am thinking of getting the green flocked stump smash next. Please tell me the fuzzy stuff doesn't come off easy.

From what I hear, Flocked Stump Smash is pretty stable.

Good info about GITD Cynder...I've been treating him with kid glooves...sounds like a good idea to continue to do so!

RIP GhostRoaster. He's reanimated as TakeYourLemons but occasionally is resurrected from the beyond when needed.

Yeah, this is part of the reason I packaged one of my two (Well, that and the fact that I thought a packaged one would look neat!). Figure really kinda sucks. smilie

So is that why the black-friday GITD Sonic Boom still looks okay...Makes sense.

Mine, just a giant smudge on her face, no big deal.
