If anything, the art print looks like it could be based on the newer statue portrait but no way would I say it could be based on the old portrait. Even the hairline of the art print is the same as the newer statue portrait while the hairline of the old portrait is totally different when compared to the art print.

At first I thought the print matched the second portrait much more than the first, but seeing these side by sides has changed my mind. Just following the outline of the face, the original seems much closer, especially where the jawline is concerned. Look at how close to the ear it is in the second portrait. The print is generally softer looking than the original portrait, partly because of the eyebrows, partly because of the open mouth and partly because it's easier to do with a print than with a statue. Seeing this print makes me want to cancel my order.

Personally, I think the art print face is much closer to the SDCC face. The hair is the only thing that reminds me of the shrill new alien face.

Dude we're talking about a fictional character and even then, Psylocke doesn't look like her father. You should look at how she was drawn in the 90's you could clearly tell she was a woman. I don't want to look at a statue and think well that's how her dad probably looked like so its cool... lol what.

The new psylocke looks more like an alien than a human imo.

Her neck is too long. At least the original head hid that.

Still cannot understand who approved these two "resting b*tchface" portraits while the art print looks amazingly elegant.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I think the open mouth and the eye position will make a huge difference. Because as of this moment the new psylocke head is just way too angry.

I have the original Pf one... with the cracking upper legs pain on it...I was hoping for for another Psylocke to replace my other pf, but I may just end up keeping the cracking legs one. It would've been awesome to exchange the orignal head onto the new PF one...sigh
