I cannot imagine with so much desirable top notch stuff available right now in the land of statues these being anyone's choices to waste their money.

Cammy fans might view things differently.
I assume Cammy fans are like Batman fans, as in, they simply cannot get enough!

To be honest, none of three screamed anything to me.
Given the blandness of the expression, i sensed nothing but silence.

Trust me for any visitors to a guy having that one on prominent display the statue is definitely making a statement.

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

He did give Chun-Li a stronger facial expression, didn't he? Why not Cammy? Why the sudden change in art direction? He can do better, IMO.

This is what I want to see in facial expression.

In the lift the stable position of catching the snatch doesn't tend to show such expression, whereas the pull or standing up would likely show more strain.

The Rogers USA image for example is a split jerk likely after a clean where she'd need good breath control in that moment to get the explosive power to hit her mark. Upon standing up with full lock out you likely wouldn't see such strain or grimace, if anything you may get a smile or relief.

Let's use one of my favorite Olympians, Spain's Lydia Valentin.

Approach



Pull



Catch



Lock out above

??? You accept it but yet insist it's an excuse?

As stated by Ant - and again by Augen above, it's a different part of the lift. It's a natural expression there. None of your pics are reflective of that moment.

Also, do you honestly foresee many people buying a statue of Cammy making this sensual face?

Different exercise? Also, see previous reply.

I honestly don't see that much of a difference. Chun-Li is simply cuter.
