The thing is at this point, no one will even truly trust the production photos.
So while I imagine those photos will 1) not have a lean, 2) will not show a “shiny” mask and 3) will minimize the other paint issues people have brought up with the face, people are just going to have to get it and decide for themselves now. Or decide that it’s not worth it. You know the professional pictures that they take can (and are) manipulated to an extent to tell the story they want to tell.

I don't know. In my experience, production photos tell the tale, good or bad.
the lean is my only really concern with the final production piece. the paint needs to be seen in person before folks freak out. I remember people freaking out about the teeth on the Hulk vs Wolverine dio as well as the teeth on the XM Weapon X based on pics, and after receiving both in hand they were a nonissue IMO.
I think a lot of folks still aren't thrilled about the teeth on the dio. Some spent hundreds of dollars on custom portraits because of the less than stellar chompers on the production portrait.

That's what I've gathered as well ....from my experience with SideShow.

These are the times we live in. There always has to be something to complain about. Panties will always be in a bunch until in hand photos are posted.
Trust me the Statue world needs people to criticise bad produced statues, But it needs to be subjective and at least done once the final product is in hand. I’m not a fan of the pics or the lean. But I don’t have the piece in hand, so I won’t trash this piece unless I’ve got it to review it. It does look worrying. But hey let’s just see right

So I guess we should expect production photos from Sideshow sometime today? They did say we'd see them this week I think.

I'm going to hold my laptop at about 10º tilt to view them.

They posted this old news to the blog today. Guess we aren't getting production photos yet.

Wouldn't be surprised if they come out and say "this has been delayed. We noticed a fatal flaw in the design and are fixing it." And then release it in 5 months with a rock accessory like Thor.

that's fine with me. Better to get it right than ship this out with a big lean

If I draw some lines on it, you'll see it's perfectly straight.
