Thanks for the pics dude! I think she looks quite alright. Now that I can see her lips in numerous photos, I agree, they could use a little coloring. I realize GG tweaked her lips and eyes from the very first revealing a few Comic Cons ago. Some didn't like the tweak, but I think she looks great. Just a little bit of lip coloring is all she needs.

Here's a lot more pics from different angles and further back.

Looks better in those shots.

Thanks for the pics, I didn't know she was out already. To be honest, I'm a little disappointed. I think the sculpt is there but the paint doesn't look great.

Edit: I've looked at the pics more closely, and it's really just the lips that bug me. Will need to see some more pics. I've been dying for this statue though, I love Maggie!

Some people complained about the look of Black Widow's painted lips looking too painted. Now it seems it is the opposite with Maggie. The main two areas that bothered me a little were the over bushy/large eyebrows, and the larger looking pupil's not looking as good as the proto.

I also didn't like how the skin looks like a spray on tan. For most of the series, she was pale/milky skin.

She should definitely be more pale.
The only thing that bugs me is how huge her eyes are.
Otherwise, that is a killer sculpt.

The face looks very different, or maybe it is your camera distorting the face.
The eyebrows look different to the proto. Why are they large and hairy?
The mouth corners look different.
The eyes look bigger.
On her vest there appears to be some painting missing on the strap?

Yeah, the face was really F-ed up. This will be a pass for me. I don't get why they changed it. Looks horrible. I thought GG was supposed to have all this technology for scanning the actors faces? They have a 50/50 record. I think these walking dead statues need a lot of improvement.

As an update, I asked for a refund instead of a replacement. There are too many other issues with this statue in addition to the lips.

What I do not understand, why go to all the effort of creating a great 3D model, making physical prototype from the 3D data, only to make the model different on release?

Why can't they keep the model the same?

I can understand a factory paint job not comparing to the prototype, but why alter the shape?

I cancelled my order based on the close up face shot. Then I re activated the the order as the second set of photo's looked better. I'm still in two minds.
