Starfire Premium Format Figure - Page 49

A couple of screen caps from Sideshow Con 'By Request' Booth Tour - Monday, July 20th at 12pm PT | Sideshow Con 2020

Possible production piece. They did not answer the question fully. My guess it is a production piece. First of all the green starbolt looks way more green than the prototype, and the Starfire's skin tone applears to look way more orange. Blame it on the camera/lighting, but paint finish looks flatter.

The piece is coming in sooner than expected. I am not sure if this covers both Reg and EX.

Here is how the prototype looks:

Her skin tone is so lame. It's like a bad spray tan. It's almost as if Sideshow was afraid to commit to the bold colors that Starfire has.

Also, isn't her necklace looking strange? Like the jewels aren't there. And the power ball has changed color from yellow to green.

The whole piece is atrocious. I hate literally everything about it.

The green fire is a big improvement over the baby puke yellow, but the skin tone doesn't look as good (though it is a lousy quality screenshot).

That video totally changed color depending on what they were filming. And didn't know what to do when her flaming hair came into frame LOL. I wouldn't trust it to tell us anything about the color/paint job, honestly.

Lousy or not, the colors appear to look correct on Harley, Superman, Starfire's purple areas. Based on that info, Starfire's orange skin tone and green starbolt are mostly likely correct. Either way, i have the piece on pre_order. Fingers crossed it looks better in person.

The flame ball is more green and the skin looks more orange. A nice improvement. I'm waiting on a more dynamic Starfire that looks like she's fighting instead of a sexy one.

It's more jarring when you look at what TH created. Straight out of the comic with those colors. And not a young Kirstie Alley...who I think is pretty, but I don't like my comic characters to look like actors.

The stupid leg hovering out over nothing drives me crazy. It should've been resting on the hair flames.
