Timber needs a do-over, stat. If not, no interest.

I like your example here, SONIC. I was looking up some wolves baring their teeth and while I see what they were going for, it feels off. Another thing, Timber's ears seem a bit too long at certain angles.

Even if Timber is removable there'll be a huge empty spot throwing the balance of the piece off. This might cause me to pass on the entire line, which would be a shame.
Good eye. Hadn't even noticed that before. I expect better from Prime 1.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Ugh, any chance they will go back and redo Timber? If so, instant purchase. If not, I prob won't get it. At the price and quality of Prime 1 this should be the ultimate Snake Eyes.

Timber is really wrecking a piece I have been anticipating for a long time.

A few people have mentioned Timber's head looking off but of course, a couple like it as is. Most agree about the placement of his rear paw, though.

We'll see if P1 responds.

Goodness...you guys are a tough crowd!! Snake Eyes looks unbelieveable. I get the situation with the wolf's back paw off the base (that's a headscratcher), but I don't have a huge problem with the snout area and the mouth. Granted it may be overexaggerated...but I've seen far worse. The fur and color on Timber I love. I like this much more than Storm Shadow.

I'll probably be keeping out of this line as it is. Just too much stuff coming out...too damn much!

I feel people considering dropping $700 on this are entitled to be a "tough crowd".

Agreed. Fixing the paw placement by moving him forward on the base should be an easy enough fix too. It's unacceptable as is.
