Own the CM, the original SS Exc., the Wolf, and the P2 and will DEFINITELY pick this one up. I'm pretty sure the pics are suffering from some forced perspective. I was watching a livestream and it looked basically perfectly proportioned if not slightly skinny.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

No need - based on the original pics shared - it will (closed mandibles).

Summarising all the concerns raised so far:
  1. The right thigh armour seems to be misplaced.
  2. The masked head is possibly a little large.
  3. Body may be a little on the skinny side.
  4. No sign of the spine trophy.

The spine trophy doesn't matter for me - I suspect that is covered by the one the swap-out left hand may hold.

No spine trophy is a terrible oversight on a piece like this, but easy to add on if/when they realize their screw up. It might not matter if that balloon head looks the same in person as in pics. Hopefully the unmasked head won't have that problem.

It has happened to me.....if the camera lens is at an angle it can make a part of the picture look larger...I will wait and see.

Thanks to Col & Zod for the new pics.

Yup - slightly anorexic and with a big head - which leads to to this rather cruel swipe . . . (it ain't THAT bad I hasten to add) . . .
