Exactly, looked incredibly cheap, new looks better.

That gun looks like an accessory for a toy from the 80's. This has had problems from the beginning, but Sideshow keeps compounding them.

I think it’s like 3 in favour of Sideshows design choice, with almost 15 against.

Which reminds me of when you were again one of the few who were pro flames on the Ex head for the new Jean Grey piece.

I guess this is what they mean by that art is subjective.

I am getting a good laugh at some of the things Sideshow is putting out. Maybe this piece will come with a water gun fill up feature and change to a Waterquette.

Sideshow gave more paint application to the green weapon.I consider it a improvement.

The green looks awful. They did it as same as the new green lantern base. Really wish both use clear resin for those sculpts

People were saying the previous construct looked cheap and toy-like. Now they are saying the revised construct looks cheap. Which one is better? Can they still make changes? The piece releases in a couple months so we will probably receive what was just shown. Hopefully it looks good in person (I'm glad the flame on the gun is removable)

Imo this newer version looks worse.

But I think some of the people who complained about the first version would’ve preferred a resin that was just a darker shade of green than the original.
