Ya I actually think the pose and regular head look fantastic. I am not sure I am sold on the EX head though.

Definitely not Sideshow's best effort to say the least. Ex head is horrible, reg head looks strange with no pupils. Very much on the fence with this one. Really wish they would dump the ex head and give us a better portrait.

Yeeesh...mmmmm...don't care for this, but then again, I would never have ordered a Jean Grey anyway.
Wow, is she ever stacked, though!

I waited so long for this. As much as I like the reg I don't see myself dropping 360 for this statue. Just one more available PO that I can order. Really bummed about this ****.

Re: Jean Grey - Jim Lee Era
Oh, I didn't say there would be no problems. Just that googly eyes won't be one.
I pre-ordered Rogue, Spider-Woman, and Psylocke on Day 1, so I know the lesson well by now. How does the BSG saying go? "All this has happened before..."

Your building a Gold Team
She does have her Charms but for a anticipated piece the bar wasn't very high, I see what they where going for but something was lost from concept to completion, I would love to know what was being used as the basis for Jean Grey, I feel the EX could have been something else and you should have received both heads regardless and the Blue Paint could have been a little Darker, I will be getting her but the long hair version will be what I display and after the new has worn off, turn that Blue Down around the Royal Blue or just a shade or two lighter than that but then again she may just look perfect when I get her home, Now to make space
Be Cool

P.S. Nice Caboose
Preorder day one like the pose I'm happy

Does her eyes in the comics turn white when she uses her powers? Might see if spazzy or darkspidey can paint some pupils on the regular head.. Or maybe send them the EX head and have them redo it... Hmmm

Where are the pupils? It looks weird with no pupils. Very rarely in the comics have her eyes been white, it's not normal.
And Jean head big hair but it looks a little extra on both portraits. The regular head looks better though but the hair on top looks weird. Other than that I love the actual pose from the waist up.
Not terrible but this was a missed opportunity to do something better... Rock base, simulate flying, something on the base like Juggernaut's helmet similar to Cyclops' base having Magneto's helmet. As a simple standing figure I'm not sure why this was so difficult.
I like this angle at the moment:

About as mediocre a Jean Grey as possible. Cut the brown ponytail off the EX head, give her a staff, trenchcoat, and a deck of cards then you'd have Gambit. Pass for me.

That's Jim Lee's designing flair for you.
Agreed. $360 for an oversized Bowen statue. Ho-hum.

The No pupils thing did happen mostly when she was Phoenix but as the picture I posted shows when using her powers it did happen. Why they chose to have both heads no pupils
