Not liking the sculpt. Shannon's an intense looking guy. they could have gone for a more neutral expression with more room for likeness, and still had him look menacing.
 
See, now all I want to see is a Permathread of 'show us your best Bane impression'

Someone Doooo eeeeet!!!

I find a cup or tumbler really helps the voice get that gravelly echo.

not that kind of tumbler...

Yeah, I feel the same way. As a friend of mine said to me, Shannon emotes with his eyes/brows, not his teeth.
 
The fact that he looks like he is smiling is the reason why the hs doesn't work.
 
But it most likely WILL be tweaked.

Recent tweaks: IM3 Tony Stark, Avengers Thor. Superman got a new body. Who else....? Wasn't Hathaway Catwoman tweaked?

The Hathaway sculpt was re-worked because folks were moaning about the mask being non-removable. So HT reworked it to actually make it removable and messed it it up. The best way to see it now is with the mask on anyway, so the desire for it to be removable has been more-or-less ruined - My opinion only.

I prefer it to be removeable.
And have a spare head away to Figurefans to get repainted(The first time i have EVER considered that).
It looks good with the mask on, but with the mask off, the eyes are a bit lifeless.
And Figurefans mod looks to add a bit more life to those eyes.

I don't feel her masked is messed up in any way, it's just delicate which is understandable since your talking making it 1/6 size. But the intricacy is amazing. Just have to be careful.
 
First person that came to mind with the sculpt is Jack Black, because he does have that insane expression. It's those eyes.

No, I'm not talking about the delicacy of the mask's construction. That is an entirely different conversation we could be having :). I am talking about the way the face sculpt itself has been compromised in the aim to redo the mask as removable...something it was never intended to be originally.
 
Facebook response seems very mixed, divided between "cool!" and "I hate it!" and "$240 for almost no accessories?!" and "FAORA PLZ!"

A LOT of complaining about the price. Which is high, I admit it.

But I'm still keepin' my baby, I mean my preorder.

Its a bull**** excuse if it even a viable one they will use.

People gotta riot and ***** about the Hot Toys pricing Enterbay-whining style.
 
Why the hell is this $240 and not $190? No accessories whatsoever

Because of the complexity of the armor, which is actually more complex than Iron Man's. And then they have to put at least part of the skinsuit on UNDER the armor, around the neck and arms & legs and such.... this figure will be a beast to assemble.
