He's got a pink mouth. Maybe I'll just wait for a 50% off coupon.

 

[supermasterhulk]

I would buy this for $450. 800 is just crazy.

 

[obsidian7]

What a total mess.

 

[federico]

Maybe too much exposure

Maybe too much exposure

Really hope it is. Surely it can't be as bad as it looks there...

 

[Tbolt]

That did not look so good.

Can anyone provide a brief synopsis of the how to video on the assembly? It went so fast, I think I missed a few of the steps.

 

[Collectorcol]

I don't think that video served any purpose other than to prepare collectors for a bland product.

How to return a product video next.

You worried by what was shown?

Really hope the used a six year old phone camera

The paint job should be better for $800.

Please quit calling every fail piece maquette, maybe try using toy to define it.
Bring some true maquette like what you did years ago, sideshow.

This looks like a prime piece for commissioning repaints. Problem is, at $800 starting, that puts the final price into insane territories.

The whole piece is about 70-80% accurate, there's definite liberties taken.

Not to mention shipping costs to and from the painter.

I think the paint is probably up to the level of the proto or close, the image quality in the video looks pretty bad, lighting, sharpness, everything just feels washed out. Hope it's the camera, if the sculpt detail even softened that much from prototype then that's bad.

I ordered direct from Sideshow.

Same, so that makes a few of us. Hopefully they cut the ES to 5 or less...

Just seen your comment in the Lobo thread. No hating on this, just worried.

You say it looks much better at the end of the video? Looks like they used a picture of the proto to me

Omg..bright lights...cancel

800 is still a bit steep for a grey coin bank though. Dat matt finish.
