Slight misleading.. they should add a 'left' on this poster.. eg. 'Only 48 Hours Left', because PO started ytd, totalling 3 days for this bonus item.

The sword and shield is a nifty little bonus but I prefer the lasso display option. Maybe if they switched it up; have the shield on her right arm and the sword in the left, I would display it that way.
Congrats on your order. I agree with you 100%. QS definitely should've put the shield and sword on opposite arms/hands. What's the point of covering her face up? The pose already covers a portion of her portrait as is. I don't see why they would cover her entire face with a swap out shield.

Well, we have a year to give QS “constructive feedback”. Perhaps they’ll make some welcome changes on the switch outs.

When the pics first went up, there were a lot on FB asking for a sword and shield switch outs. So pretty sure they just threw it quickly together to make everyone happy.

Do you think that there is nobody at QS who notices that a shield in front of the face is a bit disadvantageous.

I hope I'm wrong, but I think, when they have the desired amount of PO's all development will stop.

Sure there'll be a vocal minority who will kick up a fuss on this forum, but for the most part they already expect a number of buyers won't complete, so if that vocal minority pull out - who cares.

If you buy this, you need to love it as it is.....otherwise you will be disappointed.

Yeah. I should’nt hope for too much as well. I’m fine if the Sword and shield come as is. I’d probably just display the shield to the side or laying against the base if anything. I was gonna purchase this either way. The sword and shield are a “free” bonus.

However, I do think the up and coming Queen Studios might be one of those studios that take more serious pride in each of their releases. I recall them mentioning that they will “continue to improve the likeness” on the Gal Gadot headsculpt on their 1:4 Scale Golden Armor version. So it is possible that development doesn’t stop until they are ultimately proud of the finished product.

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.

Probably because it's an afterthought. Not a well placed/designed feature put there to please the crowds for overpricing this piece. It's a shame as its probably the best 1/4 representation of her on the market.
