If people hated Storm?s hairline (which doesn?t bother me), this is way worse.

That has to be a prototype issue more than anything, no? Sometimes they fix those seams and things like that in production. Maybe.

The more I look at it, the less I like the portrait.

I'm impartial at this point because I'm not going to buy but I do feel bad for the team that worked on this because I do see every single concern that people have pointed out. Especially the shape of the head as I cannot unsee it now.

The strengths are in the dynamic base and character pose imo, also the skin paint app looks solid. Everything else falls flat. I'm sure it will look great from specific angles, same with that Psylocke from a few years back where they swapped the face sculpt. But idk. Who knows at this point. Hopefully the Elektra fans are happy enough with it that it still sells out.

First thing I look at on a piece and I agree that this isn't working (for me at least).

If only this were a thread for a new SS Bullsyeye PF.

Don’t mean to be salty in any way, shape or form but I really hope a new DD is not in the works next. I just think maybe it’s a little too soon…..

Hit us with something new SS. Keep that Dazzler momentum going. Take chances……..

Give us a Dexter Poindexter

People thought they would fox Storm’s hairline…and nope. And that looks better than this. As it stands now her hair looks to be growing out of her eyebrows.

I like the rest of the portrait, but that is bad.

This would be the perfect piece to have an alternate portrait.
