Neytiri AVATAR Premium Format Figure

[Darth_Pain]

Keeping my order. Seems like every release has people that freak out about photos. Anyone who has collected, SS or any other manufacturer, for a while should know that the final product will not look as perfect as a meticulously painted pre-production sample.

I'm all about complaining about poor product, but doing so based on pictures is silly.

I agree.
Everyone is an expert at comparing photos but, what you see in photos isn't always what you get. Remember Venom? Everyone hated it just from judging it on the pics. Now look at it. Same goes for the Hulk Comiquette and I'm sure a thousand other pieces. Seems like people are faster to judge these days. I guess it's because of the depression pinch.


I think Sideshow's is better. The hairline is wig-ish looking but, I think I'll fix that myself. IF I order one.
I'm going to wait until I see some in hand shots and if I like, I'll use my points and get one cheap on 2nd chance since everyone is cancelling.
Maybe, wait for Legacy's maquette too. If that one turns out better I'll get that one instead.

I don't think so. Personally that is.

Top 2 pics are the 'original' Neytiri. (The one on the left is flipped for pose).

Which one of the bottom 2 captures the essence of Neytiri more ?

I still think it's a case of bad lighting and photography.

My personal experience with SS is the sculpts are normally spot on, their painting is where I feel let own by.

That said, why not wait for some in hand pics b4 canceling? No harm in that if you ask me.

 

[Darth Snoopy]

I actually think that might have been premature.

Agreed. Canceling right now before anyone has seen any in hand pics is silly IMO.

Although I'm not too happy with the pics, they are just pics. And let's not forget that we are looking at and analyzing a super close up shot of just her face. When you know in hand, overall it might still be a great statue, and I'm sure you don't sit at home staring 3 inches away at your PF's face sculpts.

If it looks good standing on it's own, on the shelf, that's all that matters to me.

Unless you saw it at SDCC

I really want it and would be happy if in hand pics turned out great and made me regret canceling.

 

[SOLIDSNAKE]

wont pass judgement till i see in hand pics.

 

[NASEDO]

Face and nose look too thin now, and theres less cheekbone. Hope the in Hand pics do justice.

Sorry bud! You know you're my Homie!

True. But most people here hating on the piece didn't see it at SDCC.

 

[Phenix]

I hope It ships soon. I haven't seen it on the 30 day list at the bottom of the newsletter yet.

 

[Something Sexy]

You are all silly.

You are all silly.

True...but that's beside the point.

I want this piece, really bad. I will hold onto my order as long as possible.

 

[Darth Snoopy]

I'm keeping my order. I hope Sideshow ships this baby soon!

 

[Red]

The changes are disappointing so i'm leaning towards cancelling at this stage and hoping the Legacy piece does it for me.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

wow this turned out even worse

Reminds me of the Hot Toys Indiana Jones thread, except this is out much sooner
