Yup, they did. The texture on the green looks to have been left out.

However, I'm more about the overall sculpt of the piece, rather than the small textures on his costume. I still think this is a great sculpt of Vision ...and I will keep my PO.

Agreed!

Ship this piece already. Rather have this early rather than later.

Yeah, I'm scooping regardless...too nice of a sculpt.

Paints are flat as f*** from this photo. There's always minimal shading on the final releases. Can't say I'm surprised but there's so much potential there for it to be a far better piece than it already is. Definite buy though.

^Yeah, the sculpts save them...I have a feeling they'll want to address that with the new Sosa line coming out. Still picking this up, but probably not right now.

Judging from the street fighter line of statues from Prototype Z the paints are really solid on those statues. With no other company for a while now really playing opposite Koto in the 1/6 scale field, it seems like they're in no rush to change up how they approach the paint ups on their statues. So you're pretty much left to deal with it or get custom work done on them. All I can say is they're really lucky to have Erick sculpting for them.

Agreed...basically take it or leave it for the time being.

Got my piece today. Slight frustration. The peg in the leg is slightly bent. I'm assuming this is just one of a bad bunch, but it's extremely hard to get the leg to go perfectly into the socket without forcing it in and at that point you end up scraping the other foot against the base and scraping some paint off. Do you guys think it is worth asking for a replacement?
