That's really disappointing you fellas can't get replacements, aside from the issues it's a nice looking statue.

I would have to send it back with that eye placement though.

That's one of many good things about Hot Toys
The are small to ship. Cannot breaking during shipping. Turnout looking very close to the prototype. Never any weird eye issues. Aftermarket prices tend to rise. And some of the boxes are a work of art in themselves. That's why i have a mix of Hot Toys and Statues

i think they made her eye like that on the regular version because on mine, her left eye looks just like that too.

The gym version ex is back in stock. I ordered her and applied $100 RP to it.

Maybe the ones with the ----ed up eyes that were sent back :|

gym version doesn't have the eye issue only the regular one and it is for all the statues not just few. gym version on the other hand has a foot issue. i think its the left foot that doesn't reach the base fully. there is a small gap.

I hope not :P I am getting my gym soon and I will send it back if it can't sit flush or if it's googly eyed and they can't replace.

well im hoping that the gym version foot thing is just a error on few statue. i know mine has a little gab and i saw the guy on youtube said he has a gap too.

as far as the googly eye, i know mine has it, the guy on youtube has it, another guy here has it. i also got another head piece from sideshow and it also has it. so that is why i thought most of the classic version has that eye mistake. my guess is they must have made an error in design or something that end up making its way to every statue. because the prototype looks fine.

here are some pictures for gym version i have, her eyes look fine but the foot has a small gap



closer view on the face


now check the regular version eye i have

jesus

ant ffs if you read this please START CARVING SLIGHT GROOVES IN THE EYES FOR ALIGNMENT

the gap seems really slight, if it's really slight I can live with it I guess

Should the black belt knot be tied the same way as a Judo belt?
..or does Capcom have their own ideas of how the knot should be tied?
Where does the PCS knot fit in to all this?

..just me being as curious as a cat
