From a group on FB. Looks like that cleaned the seams up a little but still not as much as I would like. Might be cancelling this even though it really does look cool. For the price I need to be 100 percent in love.

The design hides the seam in the wrinkles of the neck really well. Would not be noticed unless looking for it. A great solution for a statue of bare chested man with a COH.

Also if you like are like so many others and put this in an ikea box, you'll never see the neck seam.

That is fair but I want to display him from the side. He looks so much more dynamic that way. I just know statues keep going up and I know it sounds like a dumb gripe but this is a lot if cash.

Also, they definitely could have come up with a better solution for the seam. This could have and should have been designed better.

Display him from the side like the last photo you posted up. You don't see the seam at all and still get the powerful effect.

To give SS credit, I think they did a decent job at hiding the COH seam for this piece given what they had to work with. There was going to be no easy option since they did a COH.

That might be a good option actually. I really am not trying to crap on SS. These 4 will probably be the only SS pieces I own and I have never spent this much on a statue.

Wow, he's huge!

Guess I'm not fitting them all together in a Besta....

Still hoping for a Vision to go with this set.

Disagree. I doubt you’ll find a better designed switch out other than by switch switching out the entire upper body. Then people would’ve complained about an even higher price point. If you’ve seen the second hulk or killer croc pf’s switchout you’ll know what a bad seam looks like.
