But still the greater question remains!

Ass flap or No Ass flap.

If it wasn't for her inviting pose I would have forgone this piece.

For some strange reason I find that resin 1/4 statues without any mix media kinda loses some WOW! factor

Personally, I would leave it on. I am of the mindset of leaving the viewer to conjure up fantasies of what's behind the "curtain".

Still neat to have a piece with such an inviting pose in my collection.
Sadly, I think I have decided to just let this line pass me by. After this, the sticky paint on Ritual, the terrible paint on Medusa, and the hair on Luz that I don't like, I think I'll be more satisfied if I don't spend the $1200+ on these statues.

Hotbox 1/4 - Yamato

Decided to go with another Yamato statue. This time the Bond-esque Hotbox. She looks
great, and the stand, a machine-gun clip works well.

10/10

Congrats, very cool piece.
The painted clothes look like real mixed media leather.
And of course, Yamato's face paint is second to none.
Those lips and slightly opened mouth look sexy.
What I don't really like about Hot Box is the size of her stand and amount of space it occupies.
Of course this is because of original artwork pose, surely not created with the idea of a statue.
Wish they tweaked her pose during sculpting and made her legs less extended, to save some space.
Did you get yours from Yamato?
