Sculpt looks good now, don't even know how the first ones got approved. The only thing I would change now is that streak of blood on the forehead, it's taking away from the sculpt.

This is still a sweet piece: let see when it starts getting in hands of collectors

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Wow, just found out about this. Will wait for in-hand pics but it's tempting!

Someone must have gotten theirs already. Here's a link to the unboxing video. I really only like one headsculpt: the regular ash where no teeth are showing. The deadite sculpt looks good, but I'm not sure if I'd even end up using it. I have to decide whether or not to get the exclusive. I rarely get anything new nowadays, but I have been waiting for a good Evil Dead collectible for many years.

I love anything Evil Dead, but the likeness to Bruce is still off and the pose is a bit odd. If I'm nitpicking, and I suppose to some degree I am, Henrietta is the wrong color. Instead of gray, she should be a fleshy yellow. This is cool, but it's not a knock out of the park. It looks like they changed their payment plans also. 5 months at $300 before shipping is a hard pill to swallow for this.

As a whole the piece looks toned down somehow. Still very good but it has lost a bit that wow factor that we saw on the prototypes.

Probably it's because of the factory paintjob. Anyways sure it looks better in person.

I finally went for it and put in an order on Prime 1's website. I couldn't miss out on the possessed head. I do agree that the headsculpts aren't perfect, but they are good enough for me (and much better than previous attempts). I've been waiting 20 years for a good Evil Dead collectible. I'm excited, and I don't see anything better coming out in the near future.

I wanted to share a little side project I’m working on…

Evil Dead 2 is one of my all time favorite movies, so when Prime1 came out with this statue I jumped on it. Like many I wasn't 100% on the Ash likeness, but its still such a cool overall display I went through with the order. I noticed they did re-do the sculpts and I think it did improve but I still wanted a different expression and feel. Then when I found out they offered the Deadite Ash only direct shipping from Japan, I decided to sculpt a new Ash and Deadite replacements heads. I’m also thinking of re-doing his arm… Ash wasn’t buff, he was super lean

I’m not trying to take a dig at Prime1, I think they made a great statue. I just prefer a different Ash look and I was pretty bummed out I couldn’t get that Deadite head. I’ll share the final print masters once they are done. I get my statue this weekend, so I’m excited to see this thing in person!

I’m even toying with the idea of making a silicone head too for it
