Well yes, there is a seam line there. Hulk is two pieces.

Seam looks very natural to me. It doesn't look noticeable or stick out IMO.

Agree

I just don’t understand why? Shipping is already pricey as was Statue . They made many other big characters one piece I’m sure that new red hulk will be one piece . It bothers me the most as it doesn’t feel as statue like I guess knowing he splits in half .

Sure they gave us no head seam but now we have two halves . Let’s wait and see in hands pics I have feeling not all of these will sit flush .

I don't have a single statue that splits in half. It does seem a bit more common nowadays. XM HULKbuster, Spidey, and Cyclops. Sideshow Wonder Woman PF. Prime 1 Doomsday and the Arkham Bane, Croc, and Scarecrow. I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting but the ones I listed split in half. I also know some of these are split in half because of switch out parts but ultimately, they still end up being split in half statues that have to be put together to be displayed.

Even though I'm not thrilled HULK will be that type of statue, I'm willing to give it a chance. The fact that the prototype was always that way and we never even knew it until we saw the assembly video gives me hope. It looks good so far in every pic and video I've seen. Also, this is a hefty piece. I'm sure both halves will be heavy as hell. I feel confident that the upper half will lock in place solidly so long as the key is deep enough.

Sadly while we've had some pics and videos in hand, no one has given a review or critique of him, but I agree with the above, when displayed, I doubt we'll even consider the piece is in two parts. As you said FJC, the seam can't be noticeable as we didn't even consider it being two parts until the assembly video. I'm just really hoping there's not a long wait between batches and we can all get him in hand and decide from there. But for me, as long as the paint does the statue justice, that's the only concern I have on him at the moment. One tiiiiiiny nitpick I have, which I had since the first photos, was how the glasses fit into Banner's hand, the whole looks like it cuts into his finger instead of seamlessly slotting into it, but that's a tiny bugbear I accepted on order.

Batches I remember when Hulkbuster hit Orient in first batch it was few extra months until I got mine in Canada . It could be a bit of waiting

I doubt it.

It’s hand sculpted piece? That’s a shame imo .

I think part of the reason why some statues are split is to save on the overall dimension size of the shipping box.
