Seriously, I agree with you, DH. Pupils on the regular would've made sense. I'd go for some decals if I bought this piece.
That's Jean's telepathy working on you. You only think her boobs are a size too large! I don't mind da boobies myself. I think it's something that can be remedied by display angles. Unlike the different base from Cyclops.

Man you guys have really been whipped into shape by Sideshow. I can't believe people are seriously using the price tag as an excuse. $360 is a lot of money and up until recently, PFs either costed that amount or were less than that amount, but most of them were much better and bigger than this one.

Late to the party as always but oh well!
I am not digging this piece at all. The price is ok but the execution is off in my opinion. Sadly, it is a pass for me. Congrats to those that like her and are going to get her.

Times have changed for good and bad, and we all need to get used to it. No reason to keep kicking that dead horse.

Oh, Scarlet haired beauty of the X-Men. Your emerald eyes are beautiful and mesmerizing. Forever Jean Grey.

Still not thrilled with the pose below the waist, but from the waist up the pupils make it look so much better.
Also I would have managed that huge bouffant on top of her head for something slightly more natural like this:

WOW. this is a huge disappointment for me.
Seems very cheap looking like an over sized enlarged Bowen statue, not a high end PREMIUM FORMAT.
With the higher prices SS want they should at least have some fabric or better bases. Something. Oh well. No Jean for my X-men PF lineup. PASS.

To those who are looking to order, there are some really great painters available for modifications. You can always add eyes later on.
