This statue reminds me of just how different we all are. People are attracted to completely different looking people, there's a wide deversityr out there. So many people on the board ate just giving rave reviews for this thing thinking it's incredible. That is great and I don't want to take anything away from their excitement but I feel the same way you do. But hey, we can't all like it and it's great that we may like what prime 1 has to offer...or br able to get our hands on an xm.

It'll look better when they put the gloss coat on him. The biggest issue I had with the texture is how flat and dry he looked.

The texturing left a different impression for me up close.

I don't like how it looks in most pics but I liked how it looked in person. I think the gloss will finish the living organic organism look.

Same here. In person the statue is amazing. The only complaint I have and it's totally nitpicking is the toe sticking out. Aside from that it rocks. It's also really big. You can't really tell how huge it is from the pics.

The issue people have with the teeth is that the gums and teeth are a separate piece from the head sculpt and were attached separately, so there's a small seam.
