Well I think she is absolutely gorgeous !! Yes, paint on the face could have been done a bit more with effort.. but I really like that statue.

The exclusive is def. worth it !

I think she turned out pretty great overall. I have zero problem with them using PVC for the head and hands. I've seen what other companies such as Blitzway or Enterbay can achieve in terms of detail and realism with PVC, and while Sideshow still has a ways to go in reaching that level, I think they are getting better. My main criticisms are with the hairline not being as seamless and realistic as I'd like and she could use some more texture work in the face, but I do think it shows up softer in photos than it looks in person. The overall paint job, likeness, pose, and clothing work are all great IMO and I like the detail on the base and the exclusive helmet. Definitely happy with the purchase.

I received mine and I’m loving it. My only problem, aside from a slightly wonky staff, is the leatherwork. It just doesn’t look nearly as good as the prototype. If anyone hears about any customs out there for the belt and the cuff, I’d be interested. Though the cuff is probably glued on and might be difficult to remove.

So I'm curious - how's the apparent different skin tones issue in person?
 
I didn’t notice a discrepancy in skin color either.

Didn’t realize there was a bundle discount for BB-8. Just received my Rey EX so I called SS and they honored the discount.
 
How tall is she from the bottom of her base to the tip of the staff? I'd really like to display her in a standard detolf.

18 3/4 inches from bottom of base to top of her head. About 21 1/4 inches to the top of the staff, however the staff is a loose item that can be wrapped around her and angled in slightly different ways. It looks best at the angle I've got it, I think, so about 21 inches. You'd need to remove a shelf from a Detolf, I believe.
 
Mine should arrive next wednesday. I had to postpone a few weeks, happy i got the excl! Like the way iT turned out. Dont kind the pvc at all
