Hmm, I don't actually see a beauty mark in these convention pics.

I didn't either - but the promo photos do have it. I find it hard to believe everyone involved in approvals would not notice this missing important detail and that Cassandra would accept it being left off intentionally due to budgets or some other excuse. Everything else is really nicely done and extremely detailed.

I wish I could see pics of her all put together. Where did you order yours from?

I pre-ordered directly from Mezco the day it went up (10/12/2022).
I went ahead and assembled her just to be sure there were no fit issues to note -- and everything is very clean and tight. No issues at all there.
Here are some quick snapshots. The TV screen lights up which I tested during assembly, but you have to carefully remove the magnetized back panel of the TV to swap the screen image (4 options) and switch it on or off from the battery pack, so I didn't want to mess with it that much yet. I wish there was a button on the side instead or something for that.
Also of note: no numbering/edition size indicated anywhere.

She looks great, but please tell me that belt isn't mixed media/pleather.

She does! Yes, the belt is pleather with black stitching and black velcro closure. There is a loop for the dagger which is a separate piece.

I don't mind the mixed-media belt. My only nit-picks are the missing beauty mark - which honestly deserves more than a nit-pick status - and the shade of her legs is a bit darker than it should be to convey sheer black nylons over flesh.

UGH. Honestly, that makes me consider cancelling. I had no idea they were using mixed media on this piece. Can you display her without the stupid pleather belt?

I don't mind it! The TV screen inserts are printed paperboard and some of the small details/accents may be ABS or PVC as well.

I don't care about PVC usage, but I hate pleather. Can you leave the belt off?
I will obviously see what she looks like in person, but if it looks cheap to me, she might get returned.
