Whether you're okay with the product in-hand or not, there's no denying we lost something major from proto to production.

This character is cursed for me. At least I still have the Brooks comiquette.
I think that offering the original portrait as a change out would have been the right approach. This character has a lot of male hormones chasing it and SS did not factor that in nor care. A company for collectors by coll...I mean business folks.

If your ok with 1/10th the Iron Studios piece is very nice.

Welcome back to the forums!

i can confirm thor is magnificent and rogue will soon be part of the collection myself but i actually really liked the pose for psylocke... :

the base never made sense though, its always seemed out of place in the xmen line up and arguably looks kind of bizarre

I think the Koto is nice if you want semi action. IMO the best Psylocke is the Brooks Comiquette. Stunning. I love the colors on that piece.

The comiquette is gorgeous, and she actually looks like a beautiful Japanese woman. The only thing I've never liked about it (I used to own it) was how astronomically long the weapon was.

Her sash (is that what it's called?) is also ridiculously long.

I will take the artistic license with the weapon and the sash because it's stunning. I'd rather have slightly illogical weapons and an article of clothing that what this current statue offers.

Face-gate aside, she's in desperate need of an action orientated pose.
