Well, if you limit the display angle favoring directly looking at you that's the best workaround to minimize the impact.




How did she get that bag up there? Must weigh a ton! LOL

Seams do not look clean at all. I'm not looking forward to this arriving. Looks like jason tried to chop her arms off

Thinking about canceling starfire and green lantern and just taking the deposit loss instead of dealing with further disappointment if this is what i have to expect from tweeterhead.

It should be noted the photo on the box there is no visable seam.

From these pictures, I agree with comments about this being filled in and painted/finished differently.

I really don’t understand this?

In the non-close up pic it looks way better. Looks fantastic in that pic.

I hate to speculate, but seems like a lazy factory just cutting corners.

I guess to be fair, under normal lighting conditions and at a normal viewing distance, the seams shouldn't be as noticeable as the close-up picture with a flash.

That being said, I'm still disappointed that Chad didn't have the factory fill in the seams and sand/paint them to match the picture used for the pre-orders. Otherwise, everything else looks amazing.

The seam is a disappointment and it is a noticeable flaw. I do feel less happy about this. But, the rest of her looks so great I feel like it is not a flaw enough to be a deal breaker. But, I do still feel cheated about this.

Wonder if it's the same factory that did Manhunter? While the body came in one piece, parts of the arms are glued in and it's not a seamless presentation.

Oh goodie - those look just as terrible as I feared. Praying mine aren’t as bad.

Her face is stunning.
