The blue of the suit. The bootleg looks like it's almost teetering into blue/grey where as the real deal is a typical SWAT blue. It's very subtle but I went through so many shirts to get one I was happy with since the glue is a mess, that I got a really good eye for it and can tell immediately.

It's so subtle but it's there. The real one is just a notch or so more saturated. The RE4 bootleg uses the same pants and has the same color difference, but the underarmour shirt is correct as far as I can tell.

Fine by me. It looks pretty dead blue in person so I couldn't tell. Thankfully I haven't had any issues with the wrist pegs on this guy.
I just hope the pegs don't shred on you as they did with both this and my RPD version. The connectors you need I can't even find on eBay anymore. They don't even list them as "wrist pegs" and specifically call them connectors. It's because the well of the inside of the gloves is deep and standard wrist pegs aren't long enough. I replaced both of the bodies with the RE6 HT body since it's the same exact mold and way more sturdy.

I'll be on the lookout for those connectors and will pose him cautiously then. I'm not sure if I want to put his clothes on the RE2Remake body anymore at this point. It looks fine enough as is.

For not casting or wanting “cosplayers”’these actors sure do like cheap cosplayers which is worse…. I’ll give the Chris actor a pass but seriously these actors looked like showed up on set with their normal day looks, did they not hire a stylist or someone to do hair?

I was arguing with the trash on Instagram about this. Being White isn't essential to Jill and Leon, but apparently being Black is for Spawn and Blade. Diversity for thee and not for me.

I had that discussion on Facebook about Sheva, how maybe a white actress can portray her or mix race actress and the person responded with that doesn’t work because Sheva isn’t from South Africa but WEST Africa and it would defeat the purpose of her character even though her race/etc wasn’t mentioned or was part of of her story besides her parents dying because of Umbrella and why she joined the BSAA. Plus, we know why Capcom created Sheva because of the controversy 5 was getting….

At the end of the day, I don't care what color person is added in. Just stop fucking retconning the race of established fucking characters already. It goes in both directions.

I guess they hate Sheva is because she wasn't black enough for them, or educated in England given her accent.

There's quite a few non White characters I like in the series. Carlos, Sheva, Marvin, Tyrell was a surprise in that shitty remake, Mark, Jim, and Ada.

I found it weird they started making Ada look mixed White in RE6 and I wasn't the only one that noticed it. She's supposed to be Chinese IIRC.

Second SH was bad but I'll still take it over this shit. SH1 was pretty solid, I just wish it didn't try to mix multiple games together.

I can rewatch the first SH movie from time to time but the second…. After my second viewing it never crossed my mind that we got a sequel.
