New Wonder Woman PF

Even the piece they used in the out-of-box video has wonky eyes. About the same as mine.

I would not describe those eyes as wonky, as they both appear to be looking in the same direction.
Maybe Wonder Woman's left eye's is pointing slightly too far to the left. I could live with this example


Wonky eyes include:
- both eye's looking directly forward, with either the left or right eye pointing to the left of the right.
- both eye's looking upwards, with either the left or right eye looking slightly more upwards (my Harley PF suffered this - Sideshow replace it).
- both eye's looking forward, with both the left and right eye pointing outwards (Nearmint's WW has this).
- both eye's looking forward, with both the left and right eye pointing inwards - crose-eyed) (this can look ok, providing it's not too extreme).
The list goes on..

There is one exemption:
- both eye's looking forward, with either the left or right eye pointing slightly inwards (my Aspen PF suffered this - it looks ok).

Spotted this on Facebook today.

I see the resemblance.

Sideshow is the biggest offender, though, especially for a producer of big, expensive pieces.

I've said it countless times - whenever a statue is looking to the side, it's a crapshoot whether they'll be doing it right or just placing a decal in the middle of one eye looking straight ahead, with the other one way to the side, and call it a day. It happens mostly with females, too, I guess because they make them with wider eyes and it's even more noticeable.

It's moronic and unjustifiable.

This one looks fine to me too.

There are some elementary rules for correctly painting an iris in an eye, but most of the time, SS chinese painters don't seem to know them. Perhaps it's time for Sideshow artists to teach them.

That one looks ok. I think they use special production pieces not just randomly chosen in they new unboxing videos vide joker, harley - paint apps looks very clean. Too clean.

Not perfect, but if my WW is like this one, i will be happy. I aint gonna look at her every day with a zoom or a magnifying glass.

The eyes do appear to be looking in two different directions. It's a shame as it looks like a great piece otherwise. I hope it's isolated and not something done on the entire run.

I understand, that's why I stipulated in the US. I know that international collectors have a much more difficult time with returns/replacements.
