This is why I wish these companies would just show us factory samples of the statue from the beginning (without all the photoshop and lighting gimmicks). It can be very misleading to the potential consumer.
Instead, they hide behind the "prototype shown" and "final product may vary" fine print.

I agree.... showing impossible to replicate paint jobs doesn't really help anyone.

If this doesn't totally sing it will be sold or I'm really thinking of just canceling and eating any NRD and from the looks of things so far that's the directions this is heading.

Can't agree. The parameters of acceptable expectations change from a $4 sandwich to these price points. Insurance you have to have regardless. At least while wearing makeup a woman can be as hot as when you first saw her.

The GamingHead's bust is spectacular. Their lunging Kratos is good but falls short of some expectations.
I think it's harder to cheat and get away with it on Life size items plus busts are usually more heavily dependent on sculpt (featuring few intricate details beyond skin tone and proper eyes) and less on complex details relying on a superb final paint finish.

I may tip my hat to GamingHead's bust but the Playstation Gear 1/3 Kratos is highly satisfying as I have both.
