With how Hasbro and other western companies are perfecting their face-print tech, I'm honestly not seeing any point in collecting these, outside of line-completionists.

There's always something off. Shape of the face, nose, eyes, mouth. Like you see the likeness, and from certain angles or if you focus on certain parts (like only the eyes, or only the nose and mouth, etc.) it looks great, but as a whole, they just never work.

I don't know what it is.
I think you need to collect more Figuarts and Mafex if you think they can't do good real life faces.

Even with Hasbro's face print tech, they still miss a ton. Infinity War Scarlet Witch, Crimson Dynamo BAF Black Widow, the upcoming unmasked Rescue, to name a few, look terribly inaccurate. To say nothing of how they STILL can't get a Luke Skywalker figure that looks remotely like Mark Hamill.

It's honestly best to mix and match lines, as both Bandai and Hasbro have hits and misses here and there.
