I hope Jerry can change this before production.
I've been watching the scene of the movie again and although you don't see him connect the arrow to the bow string you can see that his palm is up and never down.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

To me it seams like the palm up is not executed on the poster(had the same one years ago ^^)/movie still as well as the statue is that with the left palm facing down he simply could flex the arm/triceps and biceps to look more appealing to the eye.

I never knew I needed a Rambo statue in my life until I saw this!

That little change makes the face more elongated. Now I think she has a lot of hair. The head looks very square. There is little red tape on the forehead. The position of the hand would also change it. I also see the arrow very large. I would only change these details.

Good effort from PCS. Compared to other Rambo statues this is possibly the best one to date.

Rambo's fluffy messy hair was never going to be replicated given the choice of medium.
The hand pulling the bow string lacks the tension of the photo ref.
I'm assuming the string couldn't be made too tight, as it might break Rambo's fingers.

It looks like in the poster he is starting to place the arrow on the string, but hasn't turned his hand over to pull the string back more. The statue appears to have his fingers positioned to start pulling the string and arrow back. It's all in the position of the fingers.

I never had plans to buy this statue but after the reveal I was blown away. Unfortunately I immediately realized that handposition, too. Nobody would hold an arrow with his hand turned that way as it doesn't makes sense at all.

This has the potential to turn out as a masterpiece so they hopefully are going to fix the hand.
