I agree. Is it that eye decal thing someone mentioned with Willow? I hope they address it. More than the bubblegum lipstick, I think the eyes on Willow just kill the nice head. This Faith looks like she's 40 years old with the haggard eyes. I have her on order. They better fix it before 4Q.

Sideshow should put that Faith description on the box.
On a side note, I wasn't sure what you were talking about with the decals, but now, I know. Did they use that on Willow or is that what you're asking?
Lowlights in the Sideshow evolution of eyeball paint.
doll dot
pink eye
yellow irises
grey-toned whites of eyes
raised irises (WTF?)
lazy eye
and now...
black inner eyelid mascara
iris decals?
Thinking about it this is probably the prototype. They haven't posted any close-ups on the product page, and I guess this is why. I'm sure they'll get it right in production (gulp).

Speaking of that, it that why Willow's sclera is dark green?

There is a close-up on the product page. Here is a comparison between that one and this...
Not the same at all. Not really even close, IMO.

WOW.....That isn't close at all. I hope it doesn't sound like I'm being a 'Debbie Downer' but I paid for the one on the left....not the one on the right.
If the one at comic con is a production sample, then the factories strike again. So many great Sideshow pieces are ruined by crappy factory paint, this is just wrong. I loved the prototype that we were shown when ordering, this however not so much.

Don't get me wrong. I'll still get it, but yeah, I agree. This is definitely a step down. I couldn't appreciate it as much, until I saw the side-by-side comparison. Big differences, IMO.

Just a little freaky
this sucks! I hope SS gets it figured out by December!

Is that how 'Wrong Turn' ended? I haven't seen it in years.

I think the flash of the camera is making her look like that. I am sure the final product will look better then that.
I sure hope so, cause those pics make her face look jacked.- Joined

Yeah, her eyes look just wrong, not to mention the lazy eye. Hoping that they clear it up in production.
What is with SS and their lazy eye problems anyway? Really, how difficult is it to paint the eyes facing in the same damn direction?

Did you see the croft one Jedah? Creepy. And I doubt it's the flash. Does that mean all of them will look that way? I hope not. But they really need to get to the shop that they have them done and supervise.

I agree, if that one is the final product I'm asking for my NRD back.
