Thats all true and the toes might be inaccurate but are they going to care? i doubt it. They are designing what is one of the most complex figures to make in 1/6th scale and they have done a good job on it so far. Sure the minor details may be somewhat off and the proportions lacking but i doubt they are going to go through the process of retooling just to fix it. I can take the minor flaws because its cain and nobody has or probably nobody ever will make it(unless hot toys does) again.
In the end of the day the company is going to do whats most cost effective for it and if that means one or two details are off so be it.

The toes were just one of many examples that add up to a lot of issues and an overall "fan made" feel to it.
Sadly, you're probably correct though. What WOULD have been the most cost effective in the end (more sales and better rep for future sales) would be to do it right the first time (at no additional cost) instead of just getting it pretty close and hope no one really cares. The fact that it is so complex should demand better accuracy from the start! Oh well.

Thanks to the Toy Soul pics, I have my doubts this'll be 1/6. If HT still has the 1/6 license, I wonder if it'll **** with ThreeZero and unveil a prototype of its own.
Yeah, it's not going to be cheaper than $300.
I doubt it too if you look at the price of their titanfall atlas its around $430. I expect this to be at the same pricepoint around $450 or so.

If the head opens up and the screen pops out, I wouldn't mind that being a light-up feature.
That would be far too complex to incorporate into this figure but damn would it be awesome!

Oh it could open no doubt about that what i'm saying would be too complex to put in is the electronics.

Cain's face will more than likely be just a sticker.
Yea I'm starting to realize this probably isn't going to happen for me. I'm recently divorced, just got my own place and my teenage kids moved out of their mother's place in with me. Maybe if Sideshow sells it with a payment plan of some kind but even then it's a maybe. I'm thinking this thing will just be out of my price range regardless. Would be cool if they decided to make a 1/12 version later on. I'm sure I could pick that up. Even if it doesn't have as much articulation.

Impatiently waiting for more info on this. Specs, images...anything.

Don't fret.
Realistically and respectfully, after the initial excitement this will be a forgettable release. Aside from the articulation there is nothing special about this piece. If you are a stop motion animator I could see the value in purchasing this piece. If not, and it will sit on your shelf for years then I say PASS.
Your money will be MUCH BETTER spent buying furniture.

This piece is gonna be epic, something everyone's been waiting for. I personally can't wait for this, being one of my favourite movie villains/robots.
