had it, sold it, zero regrets.

Seriously though, the first release is a nice PF. I always felt it was unfairly criticized and even liked the Mandalorian Artifact Exclusive.

It's because all that BETTER AND CRISPER DETAILED LIGHT-WEIGHT = BAD PLASTICCCCCcccOMGGGGGTHEHORROR!!!! they used to make it LOOK SO MUCH BETTER instead of that "heavier = better quality even though it doesnt hold as crisp of detail or hard edges for hard-surfaced stuff" they didnt use.

There were some issues with the original PF, namely the helmet :|

Yes the helmet on that one was a deal breaker for me.

well all i can say is use what you see fit to make sure the details are crisp and the edges are more sharp to make the piece look the best it can be.

just fill it or back it with polystone for the ones who want the add weight..lol

and what about the process/technique of using vinyl filled or backed with polystone or just strait up polyresin?

13 months of production .. wow...

IGO .. I understand that for some parts you can not go Polystone.. but the statue beneath the cloths can be.. has nothing to do with the clothes that goes on top.. and if - why not lowering the price because PVC is def. cheaper the solid polystone
