Looking at some UKG graded figs. Just wondering if anyone has noticed a difference in quality? Is a UKG 90 equivalent to a AFA 90? Also are they spot on when it comes to authentication? Thanks!

I most say that UKG grades are different from AFA, ( For what I´ve seen UKG grades are higher!)
But again I can give a high grades to one figure and somebody else will give different from mine! ... Like Obi wan will say.... it depends on the point of view!!

Yes i would say UKG are not as strict, but i find they are more consistent.
From experience i would say most UKG 90's would get a AFA 85, but some would definately be AFA 90's too.
Someone on scum actually sent some UKG graded stuff into AFA for grading, and they came back with pretty much the same scores.

I'll just add my 2 cents that while the grading is fine, I'd be a little careful if it's a rarer item. Im not sure I'd buy an Uzay Headman or something with a UKG sticker. They're just to new IMHO
