Think they did a awesome job on the piece. Paint, sculpt, etc. My only gripes really are the short cords to connect the base to the torso and torso to the jetpack for the light up features. The connections seem fairly fragile. Be careful when assembling!
I kinda wish the cloak was fabric as well but the plastic piece as a cloak looks good. I am thinking I'd prefer cloth because it would take up less room depth wise.
The light up features both have a fairly strong light up feature, was one of my concerns coming in.

Sideshow Collectibles Rogue Maquette

Just unboxed this and looked it over, fantastic piece. They really did an excellent job on the paint application, design and sculpt on this. Really amazing job! When i was assembling, Rogue herself is actually lighter than other statues ive handled could feel the difference in weight. The peg that goes in the sawblade is huge. Really don't see any "leaning" happening down the road.

Congrats buddy! As I said to Northernlad, this piece is outstanding.
She looks really nice displayed with your other pieces.

It looks like you favor the regular portrait. What are your thoughts on the portraits?

Thanks! I agree looks amazing. I like both portraits really i keep swapping them out as i walk by it lol. They really did an excellent job on the sculpting and the paint app. Tons of shading done on the fleshtones. The eyes are done well. I think Nearmint posted that sideshow seems to favor eyes looking to the left.. yeah it seems they are doing it too much heh.
The EX reminds me of the 90s comics/cartoons days. I do however, like the look more of the straight long hair. Both are done will and the face on both match. Nice to have the swap out options. On the back of the EX there is one strand of hair to be careful with. In packaging they had a piece of foam under it.(Just thought id mention it)

They really did an excellent job on the piece. From the first day of seeing it, i really wanted it in my collection. Regardless of the doubt i stuck with my pre-order not regretting it one bit Looking forward to this, Wolverine, Phoenix, Jean Grey, X-23, Juggernaught, Psylocke, Emma Frost and XM Mystique all together. Debating adding more to the list but can only afford so much heh.

Hey House,

Congratulations on your latest purchase, Rogue looks great and looking at your pictures, personally I like the regular version more than the exclusive.

And I can see your display is really feeling out nicely plus I like the Art prints at the top.
