Regardless of whether or not that is what they were going for it is evident that most people would prefer that the face be changed so I hope they do, it would be better for sales for sure

I kind of like this statue and Cleopatra too but I will not pre-order anything from ARH until they deliver more than promises.....
I have on order two statues from 2016 that all I get are promises of sometime in the future delivery.
If they ever get to the idea of having it on the shelf and as soon as payment is cleared we will ship ASAP, then maybe sometime in the future I may buy one of their statues. (That's assuming I finally get my back-ordered statues too.)

It could have been painted nicer but then you run into a Sideshow Toy situation and ----- about the final product not looking as good as the prototype.

My consideration of new statues will start when my old one arrives.

This isn't the sort of thing I'd buy anyway, but just my two cents, that face/the paint job look pretty bad.

I really wish ARH would focus on mythology: more gods, Odysseus, Polyphemus, etc. More stuff like the minotaur...please.

True. Although, I think Zeus didn't sell well only because they cut corners on him. I bought him and for the most part I like him but his unimaginative base and pose could've been done a lot better. Ares, Athena and Poseidon had no problem selling because their designs were great and thought out so that they fit each character and spared no detail, especially Ares.

I think it basically comes down to cutting corners to make a quick buck. Cleopatra looks great, but that "coin slot" is inexcusable. The same with the paint app for Arhian Pirate.

no piece is perfect, all have issues, but still money is how it goes. people asked forever for zeus, and then they don't do well why take a risk when other stuff sells
