Don't like the bangs. Who wears the bandana like that? That is the only thing I hate about this statue. Sideshow should had done better research and not sculpted the bangs.

All you need is a good hairdresser.


And speaking of better research, the big bangs theory is a good start.

Though I'm sure they'll continue the infuriating habit of having the camera pan down to her feet right as Susan turns the statue around to show the backside.

Was really hopeing to see a greg horn-esque variant of her, never was a fan of her older vintage look. If Elektra aint a super sexy buff badass femme fatale whats the point.
I will say the base looks great tho, but she's a little too posey overall. No sense of allure or motion going on. No swap out portrait either :'(

I'm gonna go ahead and strongly disagree. I see the motion and I feel the allure just fine.

If only we would be previewed a factory floor product instead of these exceptional works.
I wonder if anybody has ever had a statue they loved so much that they privately contracted the SS painter to repaint their piece?

I mean, if I had a personal grail and loved the proto....I might consider it.


But overall, I am with you. My days of pre-order are done with SS. I wait for in-hands or the new "unboxing videos" then order. Doing this for Wonder Woman right now

There is a painter at Sideshow who once worked at Gentle Giant, and she is super skilled. If she could re paint my Honey Trap - Lucky portrait, i would be forever grateful, as the factory job is 6/10
