Hmm... is it the exact same face with just the different hair style?

I got to be honest, i'm a bit disappointed.

Yep and I wasn't a fan of the original face either. It does look the same though (which is a bit cheap on SSC's part, especially when you know this thing is going to be $800-$850). Man, I'm starting to lose interest in this hobby.

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

Ya I thought they'd change the face up. Overall I like the statue enough to get it as long as the price is there. I just wish they made the face a little more feminine looking.

On second thoughts I'll wait for hi res pics before judging. The lips look chapped and sore in those pics

Even though, the face is exactly the same, I am not digging the EX portrait. I still like the REG portrait tho. Maybe the EX head is just not photogenic. I dunno.

The price will be deciding factor on whether I will get this one or not.

Well, isn't that ghetto of Sideshow. Identical face, just a literal change of hair. Even though they weren't exactly pretty (or my cup of tea), at least Poison Ivy and Emma Frost got alternate faces and will be way cheaper than this $800+ maquette.

And just like the original PF, the regular on this looks WAY better, so there's no reason to jump on an immediate PO.

For what they're probably going to charge for this, I'm a bit disappointed it wasn't an all new portrait...

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

I wonder if the body suit is painted under the jacket? Need more pics of the EX to judge better. Then there's the cost?

Seriously though, having the same face on EX is just so LAZY. I can't believe they did that for a statue that they are planning to charge maquette pricing for.
