To-date it is the first attempt at a Masterpiece version of Apeface and it is a very solid release, but it falls short in a couple areas. I would have preferred the grey plastic to have been painted, as it is it just seems a little unfinished. The other issue is the head, especially in robot mode, the head is just too large. By itself the size of the head is not all that noticeable, but on a shelf next to a myriad of MP style figures it definitely seems more than a little bit off. Now as for as quality is concerned, I personally haven't had any QC issues, and the build quality of this figure seems to be the best yet from KFC. This is an extremely well built figure. Honestly, if the option was available I would give this a 4.5 out of 5 stars; it is a solid recommend.
