That Bmutha pic is the perfect pic IMO. Absolutely love her there.

I am really surprised Sideshow allowed these photos to be used. they have horrible lighting and as we saw at comic con this statue just shines in good abundant lighting. Even the base in these 2 pictures doesn't even look like the same color.

That’s the thing we have to try to angle this to hide her face by displaying her sideways more so. This reminds me of xm Phoenix the first one. We need a custom head! Hopefully ss will tweak the face

Yeah, what would really upset me is if they just gloss over it, or if the lead designer doesn't show up and makes Susan try and answer all the hard questions.

I 100% agree about the XM phoenix heads, but not the rogue. The reason these photos are from the side arent to hide her face, they are to better showcase her flying. Here are some better head on ones that make her look great with proper lighting

I agree, these new pics aren't doing her any favors. She looked way better at the show. I'm sure the ex head would look a lot better with better lighting too. Those pics just aren't very good.

I went through this same issue with XM storm. I never knew lighting could so drastically change the way a statue looked, from paint color, down to expression. Makes me think SS had these photos already set and ready to go before Comic Con and that they need to fire that photographer. Professionally staged pics should never look worse than amateur (sorry if some if you are professionals) pics through glass with glare all over it.

Scary thing is, is that these are the pictures that they are going to use to promote ordering Rogue on their website. I dont know if we will ever see the EX in good lighting until in hand pics. Not sure how great the lighting will be for the live show.

I can't think of a single EX SS has revealed this year that I felt was a must have. I guess for the Green Arrow purists that's probably one, but not for me. The point of an EX is to get customers to order directly through SS right? Maybe because so many customers order the regular from their site Sideshow doesn't care about offering must have EX's. This seems nuts to me.
