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

I only think her skin-tone has been repainted, the rest of her is the same. But I do wonder how well the darker skin tone will show up in the dark wood PAX cabinets I have.

If you're right, it looks awful. You can barely see her red lips in these new pics.

Skin tone has definitely been darkened. Please change it back to STGCC color XM.

I haven't pre ordered this because I've been up in the air about it but if she is as dark as she is in these pics, I'm out 100%. I'm going to wait until people get this statue in hand and if I like it, I will buy it in the after market.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

I'm trying so hard to keep an open mind (because I was wrong with the first set of Singapore con pics I saw where she looked red). But, it's really hard with how many of you think lighting is not the issue.

I tend to agree. How do you go from very tan to chocolate brown with a lighting change? It's not like there's just some tiny little nightlight on in the background.

I'm holding out hope it's the lighting.

I said that she could be darker, or more mocha, but never as dark as TChalla. Her skin tone wasn't a deal breaker, just had too much red undertone for my liking. But if I have to pick between the two I will take prerepaint

They may have made her a little darker, but the lighting is killing this piece. Look at how much darker her boots are btwn the two shots. Dammit - somebody snap some more pics lol

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I heard complaints that black panther had too much red in his skin on Facebook. Even saw a collector of African origin telling xm that blacks aren't red. Seng also said he had complaints that storm had too much red going on in her skin in one of the radd titan video. I agree with Seng way too much red.
