The V-cut together with the wider shoulders would have made this even better.

Nice work but definitely not superior for me.
Agreed. It looks good, but it's way too clean and stiff (for my taste). But as someone mentioned, I think he is keeping it as is and not going to weather it.

Curious to see how additional ones turn out if the customers decide they want it weathered.

I think the material looks great and I personally like the clean look. But I'm not a fan at all of the wider shoulder cut. I would've ordered already if he followed the proto cut, but alas it's not meant to be .

I dont think much of what you say is genuine man. Appologies if this comes out as aggression but it seems you only say things you think PCS want to hear. Just basing things on what ive read from you in the past.
Anyway, moving on.

Nah I agree with him. The edges are way too thick and the whole thing looks a bit too puffy and rigid, and the goes out too wide. It's possible those were his choices and they can be fixed but as is I would absolutely pick my current statue over it. Also it definitely needs weathering and such. Also I feel like it might be too bright in person as compared to the production it's pretty bright and the production is not the drab irl. His face mask is way better though. Also I do like his belt better either, but PCS' is closer to the MK9 classic costume that it's based off of, but I think if they made an artistic decision to not put those folds like that it would have been better.

Got the dremel and am going to town. I'm telling you Scorpion is so heavy in the chest and stomach. Also I'm pulling his head slightly back. I don't like how the ninja face drops so forward plus with a tad lean throws it off for me.

Maybe, but I didn't want to bug him to make a special cut just for me. I guess it doesn't hurt to ask though.

This statue is designed to sit high somewhere. Not too high, but high enough for him to be looking at you square in the face.
It even looks better at that height
