Moomoogirl1I need some advice! So excuse the lack of the usual cutesy vibe I present in my articles lol
I just received the BNHA Toga nendoriod ITEM #943143 and while playing around with her whilst checking for faults, I found this bright red stain on the back of her uniform.
I am well versed in how to remove stains from nendo skin but have no clue how to remove one on an already painted area. Should I even try or simply repaint it? Thanks in advance.
[NOTE: I could also contact GSC for a replacement but I don't think the issue is big enough for all that. I will keep checking her out for any other mishaps I may have missed.]

And I sorry about your nendo joint breaking. I had one break on me a few days and it's honestly a pain to deal with! I'm just glad I have enough nendos to have plenty of spares. I've scuffed nendos myself too but since it's my own doing I'm pretty chill about those haha
Anyway, this is a very non helpful answer but if it were me I would probably just leave it. It's on the back of the figure where you are less likely to see it. Also, it looks like it could pass as a small blood splatter/stain; and Toga loves blood, after all!
It seems like other people gave you better advice, so I hope their advice worked for you and that you managed to get the red paint off! If not, good luck for whatever you try next and if that fails then you can adopt my attitude of not being bothered. Just think; it could've been worse...
Speaking of worse things, that just reminded me that I broke a nendo part today by accident, lol. I accidentally snapped a pony tail off, oops. It broke at the ball joint thing. In my defense the joint was stupidly stiff and I don't think I was applying that much pressure or anything. Oh well! Even though that was pretty bad, it still could have been worse! I guess I'm pretty lax/chill about these kinds of things. If the problem is only minor and isn't visible from a distance, then I'm probably gonna be mostly chill about it. Thankfully I've never had any disastrous accidental breaks or paint transfers. And also thankfully I've never received a figure with a serious defect.
You can try a regular (latex free) eraser first. It's not as aggressive as a magic eraser. I used it on a few figures and it always worked pretty good.
I'm by no means a professional, so there could be a better way, but that's just what I did. ^^'Though I am sorry about your sister's figure, but I am glad to read painting it is a solution that works. I guess I'm just nervous about not exactly matching the color, but it would be better than this bright red spot haha
urataros • 1 month ago • #87536661The only suggestion I have is to - very gently - try to remove the spot w a magic eraser. As long as you're not too harsh it should be fine. Just make sure to occasionally take a look at the magic eraser as you're doing this so if you do see any of the blue paint being removed you can stop b4 it's noticeable. I might do a wipe or two to see how that goes. I'm just glad the spot is on her back and not her front.
