I will say that pictures do make her look odd, and I don't know why. She looks much better in person. I think it's just the way lightning hits the face and too much lighting reacts oddly. The pictures I took in natural lighting look great, but under my LED lights she looks weird.
Oh yes Newman, harbottle, Steve, the guy who did captain marvel etc... are the kings of sculpting imo for sure. We all know these guys has some of best sculpts again and again. I think it's more the art direction which thing entire thing has gone which shows it's not what most buyers preferred. So SS please let these kings of sculpting work their magic on a version 2.0 with no restrictions like the new deadpool. We all want to see the explosive magic they will do on this character! Please SS do it for the collectors!

I received mine in the mail a few days ago and to my frustration I heard a little rattle sound in the box before even opening it. When I opened it I noticed the pinky finger on her right hand was broken.

From all of your experience, is it worth contacting sideshow? Since I live in Australia the effort of sending the whole Torso back is not only a big hassle though quite expensive. I mean that is if they accept a change over such a small breakage.

I've ordered plenty of statues from sideshow and haven't even got one scratch on any, so this situation is new to me from this company.

What would you guys do in my position?

I have the Exclusive Edition.

You won't have to send the torso back. They will either send you a replacement torso free of charge or offer you a monetary credit for your inconvenience. If they opt for the replacement they may ask you to destroy the original.

I would contact them. Since it would be expensive for them to ship a replacement to you, I am going to guess they are going to try to offer you a credit.

Agreed, they will just send you a replacement body and you don't have to do anything. Try that route first.
