Oh I'm not trying to sway your opinion other than there is good hope for a sorceress. They made a lot but that Teela is very good so I don't blame them.

Yup ...we know Sorceress is coming. But would really love it if they did the full reveal already. Need to feel the excitement again.

Same here. Not sure what happened there because the Aspen PF was really gorgeous. Thought the Grace PF would be just as great.

I personally do enjoy seeing her on my desk and do keep the Aspen in the back of my mind as she will be a grail search for me for sure.

Oddly enough for the fact that some peeps did not care too much for the final on how Grace turned out.....she sold out. strange.

I don't think sold out means anything, does it. Doesn't everything sell out eventually?

Everything sells out eventually. And you're free to like it, but it wasn't Grace. It was cherub-faced teen cosplayer pretending to be Grace.

I wouldn't say regret, but disappointed. Bought an Ada Wong statue that isn't license and came in the mail last week. The seams on the arms will always hold back that statue. It's ok from a distance, but up close those seams are obvious. I paid about 400 for this statue, which is a 1/4 A 1/4 scale statue at 400 is relative cheap for a 1/4 scale statue in todays market. Probably move this statue into the garage with all my gym equipment once I need to make space for other more impressive statues. Moral of the story, probably not buy anymore non license statues, seems to be a hit or miss when it comes to the quality of the statue. In retro spec, I shouldn't have expected a very high quality statue from a sub 500 statue.
