But this did not cause me disappointment, it is obvious that the chinese without a license do not bother much with where and from whom to take the design.
For me, the most important thing about this particular statue is painting, it's worth paying for, and it's wonderful for this brand. I've seen other works on Pin Jiang's YouTube reviews, there's no doubt about the quality.
In fact, professional painting is the most expensive part, because anyone can print, but not everyone can paint like that.

At this point, I'm fine with it. It's a great Venom, and I couldn't get my money back anyway.

I'm not actively looking for recast statues, but custom/unlicensed are a grey area I'm ok with.

Yup. Looks like you found the STL.

I think Pin Jiang added the fourth tentacle as a distinctive part of his version of painting this statue. So that it can be distinguished from professional studio painting and printing an stl file.
As well as the painting completely corresponds to the promo photo, including saliva on Venom's tongue, I found such painting all over the Internet only from Pin Jiang.

I'm sure we have no reason to worry, we are waiting for a gorgeous statue.
When you take a chinese statue without a license, you can expect that he will steal or use a free 3d model, the most important thing is how he eventually implements the most important part, because it seems to me that painting 1/4 of a professional customizer exclusively for you will cost much more than our pre-order.
The most important thing is that the original 3d model was not implemented by another studio (I mean in a physical version, not just as a 3d model) and Pin Jiang is not engaged in recasting, they took a free model and make the best version of this statue. I think it's a good idea.

Well, this is another proof that, after all, painting is the most important thing, it looks like a bootleg... no offense.

Interesting. You make some decent points. I'm not worried about delivery.

Yeah, obviously that guy is not a professional. I haven't even started painting yet, but I got the STL because I want the Brock head, so I'll try my luck painting it eventually.
