If this means the mutton chops, blush and venom goo on the mask are all "pre-production" only errors then this should be a home run.

The mutton chops on those recent pics look saturated and quite dark, but on the prototype they're painted subtly that it works well.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

Question. Assuming that lean becomes a non-issue, and the only thing off from the proto are th facial paint apps. How much would/could it cost to just get the portraits repainted to match the proto quality? Sculpt is just too good to allow bad paint apps to ruin it.

I'm confident I won't have to do anything.

Depends on who you use for the repaint. Low end is at around $100 and it only goes up from there.

They said that leaning piece was put together by a non-SSC personnel and might've been put together wrong.
Thanks. At least they are aware, and reassured they are very sure they production pieces will not have the lean.

Thanks for the info, and good to know that it can be done for relatively cheap if need be. However, I have a feeling we won’t even need to consider a repaint. May not be exactly proto quality, but even at that will probably be better than most. Let’s see them production pics.
