Same. The black hair may be more 'accurate', but it looks infinitely worse and quite cheap. Crazy that some people think this looks better. Needs the brown/grey highlights like in the show for added detail. Especially at 1/3 scale.

LOADING: Image(s)

This looks great. The hair was 'BLACK' in the original cartoon.
The new photo's show the black hair and how real light can provide the required highlights.
The black looks way more on point, compared to the inaccurate brown hair.

As others have posted, the original black hair update was probably Photoshopped,
as the black looked flat, and the contrasted appears to have been increased for the whole image,
making the portrait look more intense.

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

Those Abs are amazing. Wish I cared about Aeon Flux

I would love to see statue's pose used again for a Mystique, Psylocke, Black Widow, or Catwoman statue. Heck, you could probably use this pose for Spider-Gwen, Spider-woman or Bat Girl and it would still look amazing.

A Wonder Woman in this pose would be be pretty hot too, but unfortunately she not the type to break into a building.

no worries....one of the perks of living in America is you can return anything and everything you buy....there is no limit on how low you can go as a human being in the USA nowadays....here you can buy a new sack of soil from Home Depot empty the contents in your garden then drive back to the store same day with the empty sack and say you want a refund because you are not happy with the quality so and so...i have witnessed this behavior one too many times.....so long as you have a receipt you should be good and thats only with a sack of soil for $13....what more with a $1300+ statue? if Aeon dont look good in person then just return it to Sideshow...they pay for free shipping anyway

Aeon Flux takes me back to a time when i would watch MTV, a time when MTV played a ton of music, a pre_internet time when MTV was my main source of music news and entertainment. Aeon Flux would play, and another crazy cartoon called The Maxx would air
