The netting doesn't bother me too much, but the paint app is definitely too glossy on the skin. I honestly hope this is above a $2k piece because I won't even consider it if that's the case.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

I thought the same thing. It almost looks like a gigantic plastic action figure. Even the way the arms are matchingly posed double fisted, looks like an action figure in the packaging clamshell. They need to fix the paint work on the skin.

apparently, the Prime owner said they will not be altering the paint work on these. It's odd how Scar doesn't have the same gloss, so maybe it's just the photo?

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I agree about these guys just looking like random scaled up action figures. To me, these designs will always just look like bodybuilders in costumes. They just don't evoke the fluidity, grace, and yet utter deadliness of KPH.

I guess I'm being a negative Nancy or my expectations continue to rise when it comes to $3k collectibles. It could also be the harsh lighting, but man, these look dreadful. I think the sales on these 3 could ultimately kill the line. If they were 1/4 scale, they could probably do well enough.

The Office lighting isnt doing these guys any favors. I think Celtic Looks great. But seeing them at this scale,
This level of detail in this bright office lighting their lousy design is brutally exposed.

Still think they should've made one DX statue with all the helmets/removable armor pieces as switch-outs. I don't see many people jumping on all three of these (or even one of them, really), plus Chopper and Scar have practically the same pose.

They should've made these 1/4. Would've had more chance of selling all 3. I agree, the lighting is doing them more harm than good. I really want Scar, but I'm dreading the price tag, shipping and inport tax/customs.

1/3 is fine, but they aren't actually 1/3 is the problem. They should be $500 less and real 1/3. Then make some in 1/2 for people that want "presence".
