Favorite pieces from the Little Twin Stars Re-ment set + Disney Macarons

 
I showed the flawed pieces from a previous post. I ordered 2 more individual sets from a seller on ebay so they can replace the flawed ones. They just arrived and I have gathered my favorite pieces to showcase. I think the best piece is the chocolate biscuit. Very nice details & color front and back. The chocolate details of Kiki & Lala are very sharp and clear. They are just like the Re-ment pieces from way back. 

Whenever there are mini bakery items I like to buy more than 1 set. I sort of regret giving away the 4th  Mickey and Minnie mouse macarons. They are actually a perfect size for necklace charms but I don't want to use these 6 pieces since I might need them for a bakery display.

So many flaws on my Re-ment Little Twin Stars miniatures

The quality of Re-ment minis have gone down dramatically lately but I didn't expect to get so many pieces w/ imperfections on them. There were at least 1-2 flawed pieces per box. The imperfections were either black marks on the pieces or missed spots while painting. Here are just some of the items: There are 2 missed paint spots. One below Lala and another on the lower left of the purple bear. Those 2 spots pop out more when looking at them in person.



I was looking forward to this cake but the overall paint job was very rough. Lots of black or grey spots on top of the cake

Near the tip of the dripped icing, there are a few missed paint spots.


Lots of dirty marks on the back of the bunny.

Even worst, there's a very obvious mark on her ear. The same thing happened to the purple bear or cat in set #7.

Another black mark
