I posted my thoughts in the other thread - but further...

After examining her from every angle for the photos, I have to say she's darned fine. The hair is handled very well, although the hat thingie makes that easier. The pose is very dynamic and I really like how they never make a "safe" pose, but really try something different (Doom aside). Her facial expression has always bothered me (as it has many others), but seeing her in person it really does fit the character and the pose.

I'm extremely pleased with her and hope to get more female PFs in all the lines.

Just wondering, is her skin really that 'yellowish' or is that the camera/lightning?

Darklord Dave

12-18-2005, 05:15 PM

I think the skin coloring is pretty accurate, it's tungsten lighting, but I wouldn't call it yellow either. Looks very natural in person.

As for the exclusive - not interested in the white costume at all, just as I wasn't interested in the Bradstreet Punisher shirt. I'm thankful that if the exclusive isn't just an add-on like Ironman and Doom, at least they've been versions I wasn't interested in so I don't have to get both.

Ahem.. If you don't mind me asking: have you checked what's underneath that top? :naughty

Darklord Dave

12-20-2005, 10:57 AM

I'm not going to risk pulling the top down, so...no. But I believe there are in-progress shots at the Gore Group site. And we know that Marvel made them get rid of the...more obvious protuberances in the general top area...

I'm glad you like her - but *really* - was that necessary Dave?? I really thought better of you :nono

I don't know whether to hide my head in shame or.... well, I'll just be over in the corner hiding my blushing face. :o

There I am, just perusing the post, enjoying the nice photos of Elektra, then WHAM. :horror

I guess boys will always be boys :p

So true Dave....Dusty, Dave did it for you guys....he had to sacrifice is dignity in order to make this figure more ''enjoyable''..................................... ...............and I do think seriously,that Dave helped sells a lot of them with those pics...cause after all, like you said Dusty....''boys will be boys.....''

Dusty! For saying this, I might fry in hell for much longer than was scheduled anyway, but I'm with Dave and Shaihulud in this now. What needed to be done, was done! Dave the brave!

CRAP! I always wanted this piece, but the problem is I already preordered Captain America PF, the GG Slave Leia, and the Shaun of the Dead bust. Gull darnit!

This blows. Why do the things I want and love come available at a great price when I don't have that access to that dough? hehe

What made me nervous about the Amoktime deal was "CLEARANCE PRICE FINAL SALE". Does that mean if it's damaged you are SOL?

Red. The white didn't look as striking, plus the red was 50% off! :D

I don't think so. I read through their return policy several times before ordering, and I feel confident that if it is damaged, they'll take it back. I think "final sale" in this case means "this is the lowest price we're going to offer on this lusciou... ermmm... I mean... well-sculp... ummm... nice figure, so act now if you want one".

Honestly, the best advice is to e-mail them and ask.

On a lot of my import stuff I ask the online vendors if they will take returns/exchanges due to damage or whatever. Some would do just a refund, some would do refunds/exchanges,and some were just doing none of it.

Love the pic. Looks like Frodo was caught hiding in the closet in Elektra's bedroom.

I think the red Elektra looks better. It has more presence since the red jumps at you more. Elektra wore white for a small period of time so it's not a definitive version for me. I think the main reasons I have passed on this piece are the face and the way the hair seems so stiff and un-natural.

I think she looks alot better when you put some of her hair infront, insted of, behind her shoulders. She dosn't look as bald :o

Anyone got some before and after pics? Hair behind, hair infront?
