A few weeks ago i bought a bump in the night productions shorty klown mask which I thought was really nice for being mass produced. So i thought what the hell lets get slim too. Well he came today and I hate to say it but it looks like crap. It looks nothing like bumps catalog pics. There nothing like the old bait and switch ! The thing was crushed to hell, the sprouts on top of the head were permanently bent backwards. Whats worse is that the paint job looks like it was done by a five year old. The red paint around the mouth and cheeks is smeared all over the edges. The eyes are blotchy and had glitter on them. and the edges of the bums are painted black.
I have to say I'm really disappointed with the quality of this mask. However i am keeping it because its not a bad sculpture and it could be a nice mask with a bit of work. I will fix the hair and repaint it tomorrow.
I called bump in the night to talk to them about this, Not to get a refund ( I bought it from amoketime.com) but to tell them how bad it looked and ask is this was a oversite or defect of some sort. I talked to chuck and the conversation basically went like this.
I told him of the problem with the hair and paint defects and offered to e mail pics.
He said were did you get it, I said amoktime, and he said call them.
I said I just wanted to tell you how badly it was crushed and painted,
He said there all hand painted.
I said ya but the thing is its really badly messed up, are they all this way ?
he says again there all hand painted some come out good some don't look so great call amoktime
( were i bought it).
At this point I realized this guy just didn't get it and i said thanks bye. I was too frustrated to go any further.
What the hell is with this company ? I guess they thing is send them out weather they look bad or not. If it were me I would be ashamed to sell someone something that looks this bad. I mean do they not have any quality control or care about repeat business? I read an article on haunted bay were chuck ( owner of bump) said he he wasn't happy with what was available in the industry. He wanted more detail, fresh ideas, and higher quality. Above all, he wanted to make available products that he himself would want to buy.
If this is what he considered high quality I would hate to see the bad. I was going to get the popcorn klown and fatso but now i'm not sure if I wan't to take a chance on a crappy mask. I'm sorry to rant but I just wanted to vent and let you guys see what bumps stuff really looks like.
peace out.
