Hi everybody! I Recently restarted collecting FoA (or Exogini, I'm Italian) and I discovered painting mistakes I didn't know. Some are more common, others I think are quite rare.

If you do you know more about these please leave some pic down below.

Here are some of the well known Italian variants.
I miss Biospewer and Spinal Mutosis with green lime eyes, and Slurpmaniac with darker tongue (or lighter, it's really difficult to distinguish the difference on this one).

Then some of the misprinted ones I founded.
Sumo Stompo with/without white eyes, and Burp n Bake with/without blue spots on legs are very common.
I don't know how much common is Bendzonian's beard misprint, because it's first time I noted it.

Last but not least, this Ramm (not mine, it's from an other italian collector) with not painted right claw, leaved in bronze default color. Did you see some other like this one?

Ive seen a bunch of those but the ones I had not seen yet were the very first green guy (common for the blues and purples to be off and red/pink? just haven't seen it in that figure, i think this is due to someone just mixing the paints incorrectly for a batch of figures or could be liek a series 1 paint mix vs a series 2 paint mix). I also have not seen a RAMM like that either but my guess is someone just forgot to paint the hand which is cool, nice find!

 

PS: dont think i have seen any of those misprints, things like these are fairly common and across the board as these were hand painted

Sorry, my english comprehension is very basic and way worst than my writing; I'm not sure if I understood all of what you wrote, but yes, they are hand paint mistakes (except for italian mutants variants, that are made with whole different colors, so technically are not due to painters' inadvertence).

 

Almost all of these are not singularity, but very commons serial mistakes.
I'm curious to know if the uncolored arm ramm is a common misprint too, it is difficult to say it because Ramms are uncommon of itself.
