I'm late to the party but I recently got me the silver version of this exact gothic knight from ebay and oh boy... It came in fully covered in white corrossion due to it to be galvanised steel. I was surprised that they did not put any kind of protective layer on top of it to prevent this. So there I was, spend a good buck on it too. I used a hobby drill with a pollish tool to completely clean it and a pollish creme after wich did wonders but now I have to rub it every month with ballistol to keep it shiny. If I knew this before I wouldn't have bought it and instead bought the red wich got a layer of paint to protect it from corroding. I have no idea if anyone else had this same problem before I did not experience this with my roman soldier's metal armor from hot toys.
As a colector of coomodels and poptoys i sadly see a declain in qc, they nearly always come with some pice fall off or brocken, and for the price they have its realy a downer

Yeah, I feel similarly. Prices went up and QC has not.
