I'm on the same camp as you. His suit is just unnecessarily overly busy and complicated. But my biggest issue with the piece is Nora in her chamber. She has always been depicted with her full body visible more often then not towering over freeze as she floats in her chamber. The P1 piece for some reason has her shorter then him and with her legs cropped which just throws the whole piece out of wack for me design wise, just doesn't look right. I know it's a 3rd scale and I guess that's why they did what they did but honestly if you're going to do it than do it right.(Go big or go home as they say) 3rd scales are a massive issue display wise as it is but if one knows that going in then I presume who ever buys 3rd scales takes that in to account. The extra 3 inches or so of Nora depicted full body would have made this piece close to perfect

What would have helped is maybe forgoing the elaborate design they have caping the top of her chamber and have it all glass at which point Nora could have been raised up. That's an inch or two wright there.

The attached image explains it all. Simple suit and chamber. Very clean practical and thus beautiful design. Sometimes simple is best!

That image would have been the perfect one to go with. Prime 1 likes to over do things sometimes. Their version is definitely cool but over designed.

Hopefully you can buy this without the chick. Its cool but going to make it too expensive.

He is a bit busy but I wouldn't scale it back as in the picture, I prefer it with more texture and detail, but I completely agree on Nora part. She should definitely be displayed in full body, this cut off is just not a great solution to whatever they had problems with.

I would gladly sacrifice a bit of detail on him if that meant showing her completely and making the chamber simple and elegant.

I would also love to see this in 1/4 as there would be no issues with the size, and we would be able to get the full scene and emotional payoff.

Their philosophy is "More is More".
