Confirm facial print/paint is sharp and centered with no smudging, bleeding, or uneven edges
Look for consistent paint coverage and crisp color boundaries (no streaks, patchiness, or misalignment)
Check eyes and small details for symmetry and proper finish (no cloudiness, chips, or warped printing)

Feel for uniform softness and stuffing distribution (no lumps, sagging, or uneven fill)
Compare the size and proportions to official measurements (head/body proportions, ear placement, limb length)
Inspect accessories (glitter parts, charms, clothing) for secure attachment and matching design details
