'Laura's here and except for a noticeable seam where her foot pegs
into the base looks phenomenal.' - Alex Kinnear

The photo at the bottom highlights the foot seam issue. The lower leg looks broken (which it isn't)
They could have avoided the problem by making the join lower into the water.

'Laura Matsuda <3' - Jr Guzman

A touch of Jaundice with this one. Probably has something to do with the camera/lighting.
The bottom photo appears to show a key hole for a bikini strap can be pegged in.
The bottom photo also gives a closer look at the added section to fix the hair issue.

'Laura Matsuda my favorite female street fighter character has arrived.
Very solid sculpt and really impressed with her hoping for swimsuit
Cammy and A battle outfit Laura to be made.' - Michael Keith

That Sideshow piece look's large for 1/4 scale.

Still thinking on picking this up

More issues with Laura, and some issues with Karin. According to Alex Kannear Ant/PCS will not be using this studio (i think he means factory) again. That's good to know. Personally, i have decided to pass on this Laura and this line. I like to think there will be another Laura M. from PCS in the future. Moving on, my attention is on Cammy 1/3 - i'm still thinking on this one. I wonder what factory is making the piece? ..a good one, an average one or a good one?

The over sanded upper right leg of Karin.
I would 100% send this back if it were me.
Laura's foot peg can be fixed. A poorly sanded upper leg should never have made it past QC

Really love her. Well done. Peg fits the base unlike Laura but I can fix
that. Karin is almost perfect except her butt. There a flat spot right
along her bikini bottom that looks like it was a sanded down repair.
Can’t notice it too much when it fully assembled. Going to keep her
too because I’ve learned a replacement is sometimes worst this is in
the back and again not noticeable. I’m not complaining but want PCS
to see this. You have some QC issues with these two statues. PCS or
any other company needs to see this to make corrections with
manufacturers. I know PCS is new ownership so here you go. I have
both Morrigans and two Chun Li on order so hopefully they don’t have
flat spots on their butts! Flat butts are not a thing lol (baby got back)
again love them and keep them coming - Charles Shisler Jr

Laura finally arrived here, and though a bit late to the party, she was more than definitely worth the wait... I'm going to make the power move and say that she is straight up the most fantastically gorgeous scuplt of any piece I have seen from any studio, period. Her charisma is wonderfully overwhelming, and everything from her perfectly executed smiling portrait to her absolute Brazilian waifu butt is just sublime... Needless to say I am completely in love with this piece, and kudos to PCS for not being afraid to make her amazing... There are a few minor lacquer marks on her legs which are only visible at certain angles under strong light, but other than that my copy is near perfectly executed. Here are some hero shots of her, with bonus shot of her with Karin ( I will have dedicated Karin shots up this weekend).
