This one seems to divide opinions here.

Personally I love it and can't wait to hear when they will actually ship.

Great! Thank you for telling this.

Gheroes is where I have bought my statue and I just double checked the info on the webpages with them and got this reply:

We will inform all clients for balance payments around next week and the one who paid in full for freight charges by the end of this month.

I was just asked to pay the freight with this note:

"Catwoman will arrive in the beginning of June"

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I know there's not a love for this statue here (which I really don't understand...) but it seems people got their wish on her turning out poorly. Three years almost to the day since this thread started at that! I've seen one Youtube review and some pictures on Facebook where the head paint doesn't match her chest paint. Not sure if it's the same guy or not, but it's not promising. It looks like they used the translucent resin on her head flesh and then solid-painted her chest.

The Youtube review is badly lit, but the photos match the difference in flesh tone. Makes me a bit worried, because this isn't just bad first photos put out into the wild with no explanation. The guy who posted them was ticked off that she looked like this and wanted his money back.

Hopefully this isn't the case on all of them. I only just recently got my first XM piece - the Rebirth Batman - and was hoping for the same quality on Catwoman so I could pair the two.

Again, not my photo, this if from Facebook:

I've seen multiple pictures from multiple people... many have a variety of QC problems, but this face and chest color difference is in each and every one of them.

I personally loved this sculpt and hoped it would be a sleeper hit once it hit collector hands. It's mind boggling that XM thought this was fine to release out to customers. Hopefully they make it right somehow and soon.

Not a pretty face. The pupils don't seem right either

I just got this statue and I love everything else about it except the skin tone difference in the chest area vs head. That is a shame as I think it's otherwise perfect catwoman statue. I also love the head sculpt without goggles except the skin tone.

I actually wrote to XM-studios about this complaint and got auto-reply telling me that they will reply in 10 days. I'm curious to see what they will say.

That's good to know, because I really didn't want to have to cancel my order after waiting for 3 years. I mean, I'll have to wait MORE for a better head I suppose, but it's better than not having the statue at all.
