No easy access to #1 and P1 atm but here's 2 and 3. Fair warning I take absolutely terrible photos. The repaint on #2 (and 1)was done by Vicente Torres. 3 is stock standard, you can find way better pics than mine...





Here is an example of Vicente's top tier work



Though note this was like a $1,200 repaint or something. I went for a cheaper one but still a huge upgrade. I did shell out for a top tier one on the #2 though my pics do not do it any justice unfortunately.

Thank you very much for the pictures. I can already see the differences.
I would have liked to see the statues live.

The body is too horny to match the face and the pose is awkward.

I am more than happy with my Sideshow - Red Sonja (bar the slight roughness under one armpit)
The paint app looks fine (bar the axl handle, which i fixed)

I view this Red Sonja as a bit of a grail, as there is something special about it.
I like the way is does not come across as a pin-up in cosplay.

I dont really like the first couple, no offense to anyone, I like the 3rd one, but I dont think the face was as pretty as the original prototype, I'm hoping the new one will be better than all of them

Yeah when you first showed those pics your lighting made them look fantastic. The reason I may have bought the last one Sideshow had when I got a conversion years later and she instantly went to Sold Out. Proof positive of statuesque peer pressure right there!
