New Psylocke PF

They should have kept the original sculpt

To me that looks no better or worse than the current portrait. I still like the original, but I think that if the current portrait was what was initially released, and it was then switched to the "other" one people would have the same reaction regardless of comments as to what looks feminine/masculine, Asian or Anglo.

Someone will make a custom head to save this. Both SS portraits are [emoji90]

Well consolation prize I went with the print instead because I can't get the Warf frown out of my head on this statue.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

The print is actually pretty nice

Better face on print. Still getting the statue.

Just adds insult to injury that the print looks so good

Looks soooooo good, I was wrong. My apologies for being a ****** bag.

better in focus pic

Not bad. I still have an interest in this, but like the new Spider-Man PF no desire for the ex so I can wait.

I still think they should’ve smoothed out that ridge between the top of the nose and the forehead.

Almost looks like a prosthetic makeup piece adhered to her forehead.

Thank you for posting this!!!

Only one more flex payment to go!! Woohoo!!

Took some screen caps of the unboxing. I'd be very happy with her. The production pics were just awful looking.

 

[mrclean08]

Looks fantastic to me!

For all that don’t know already the reason Psylocke doesn’t look Asian in the comics is because when Kwannnon and her switch bodies their DNA is intermingled causing them to look the same despite being different ethnicities. I know there’s been a ton of arguments over this on multiple forums, the original portrait of this statue should have stayed.

“Spiral also uses her magic and the alien technology of her Body Shoppe to intermingle the DNA of the two women. The two bodies now share genetic traits and mutations such as purple hair and eyes, both possessing true telepathic abilities, and have a physical resemblance to each other despite their different races. This resemblance is strong enough that Wolverine is able to recognise Psylocke's face upon seeing her for the first time in Kwannon's body, and later notes that both bodies share a similar smell. Both women are also now able to create psychic weapons - Psylocke a blade of focused telepathic energy from the back of her right hand, and Kwannon a psychic katana construct.”

Giving us the original portrait as a COH for an EX is a no brainer. Don't think that would've been hard for SSC to do either.

I emailed SSC about that earlier this year, and they basically told me nope.

Of course, typical response from SSC. I bet they didn't even state a reason for that decision.

Yeah we knew back when the new head was unveiled that we wouldn't be getting the original one. Can't remember what the reason was, something about it not representing the ethnicity of the character
