holding it right now. the zig zag black on her boots are a flat paint. not raised like the details on the apparel of Shulk or Fox. Just due to the character design the blues and black do not offer much of a difference and kind of blend in together. there is not pop in color. Even her head wrap is an earth tone. I know this is due to her real character and ninja types are low key but it leaves a lot to be desired. I find the fingers to be pudgy, especially the stone.The only color that does jump out is red but due to her pose it is kind of hidden on her chest. The paint job on my figure is not great, whatever the back strap is on the back of her head is not sharp. Some areas the paint seems it was applied unevenly and I am sure one of this is due to the pose and it being hard to get into some of the area.
Now I am holding Shulk in comparison and every bit of him is articulated. Different colors, raised deatails, and so many colors. There is no real debate to me.
Edit:
I meant lazy with with they got. I would expect more raised detail or more defined separation of materials and clothes. Like I said most is due to her direct design but I feel they could have found some cool spots to really articulate. Opinions and all but she is in my bottom 5 for sure.
I will stop derailing now ha
