So far, it seems 4 bidders cannot read - 'hair has been repainted' and 'repro weapon'!!!!! It's a £15 at the moment, wonder where this will end.
 
Whats the betting that this will appear again - but without the notice that it has been repainted
 
needs his paint brushes sticking up his arse

is repainting common? bugs me. just hope none have found there way into my loose collection.
luke farm boy was obvious and the fett and jawa did'nt look right.

i always check for repos but not really touch ups. think im gettin complacent.
 
Very sad that he does something like that, but glad he write he have done it. But maybe the buyer will not write it when he or she sell :cry:

:( TW@ comes to mind,its bad enough he touches them up, even worse is he makes a video to show every scamming fooker out there how to do it :evil:
people are even messaging him asking what colours to use on certain figs,like Luke FB hair :(
 
I think this is one of the guys off the forum...

It's a tough call because these are clearly for his own display, and they're his figures and his to do with how he pleases but as is noted, they'll be plenty of scammers out there using this info to touch up paint worn figures to sell on.
 
i dont like any form of touch up, a beater is a beater leave it that way.
as you say it is his own figures and he can do as he likes, but one day he will sell and like he says in his video he will declare they have been touched up, the next person may not be as honest as him :(
if you want to paint beaters use different colours and make customs,this way they can not be confused.
