Ugh! The Kermit on the far left and the Fozzie on the far right are terrifying!

This is why I tend to avoid bootlegs. The molding is sloppy, and the paint jobs look pathetic. They offer nothing interresting outside of being bootlegs. Now if they were an odd Hong Kong bootleg and they're all bizarre looking super deformers (I've seen an Incredibles bootleg like that).

So the question is, is the plastic really cheap and greasy?

I have the Kermit on the far right front, my sister just gave it to me. Didn't think much of it

My uncle (who sells “bootleg” stuff at fairs) calls them “knock- offs”

It looks like a 5 year old painted it. of course, given the state of bootleg sweatshops, they very well could have. I bet you could cut your fingers up nasty on those sloppy hanging edges.

As far as I know they are Polish bootlegs ... the molds are actually not that bad, but the paintjobs are indeed nowhere. It's no use collecting them, there's paintschemes galore ...
