Outside the head, and a little tiny bit of the weapon arm, there is no paint apps on the figure body. Cost Hasbro pennies to make, and yet they turn around and sell it in a exclusive two pack for maximum profit.

I'm not a fan of the idea either, but it's what's they do.

To be entirely fair, Klaw also has a little bit of paint on the lower torso and thighs
