Here she is in all her glory. I have to be honest, I was a bit nervous when I saw the earlier pictures but I have to admit that while this piece is not perfect I still like it. There are definitely a few paint app issues but nothing that can't be touched up. In my honest opinion this is not a $200 statue. At best the should be priced at about $149.

I'm sorry, but that looks absolutely terrible. The paint applications are embarassingly bad. It's like something you would expect on those statues that come with limited edition versions of video games.

Damn I didn't even see the holes or the face lump, of course I don't put statues under a microscope. I may get an exchange or refund.

Look out for #1. Don't step in #2 either.

That is shockingly bad. The line running up the right side and the lump of paint on the face! Here I thought that DC Direct had bad QC. Thankfully I didn't waste my money on this piece, but still sad how it turned out as I was quite looking forward to it.

I try to be respectful of other's collections but there's no way this would stay in mine. I agree it's definitely not worth the asking price. That paint app makes me want to cry.

Again, I hate to bash and I try to see the positive in most pieces but I just can't here.

Anthos, if you're happy with her, that's all that matters in the end. Enjoy, man.

Mine comes tomorrow, I'm sorry but if it looks like that I'm sending it back for a refund. I paid 179.00 shipped. Looks like a 75.00 statue

I think some of the paint lines could be fixed with a little tlc. Should have been better qc tho

When this goes on clearance I may get her and attempt a full repaint. I love Vampi, and I actually kinda like the pose.
