I have yet to receive a bad statue so my enthusiasm doesn't need anyone's wet blanket thank you.

Honestly, all I can is say is if I were that pessimistic about collecting I would find another more rewarding hobby. I just can't see how it would be fun to see a new statue previewed, and from minute number 1 feel its going to be a failure/let down, but still consider myself a collector.
The anticipation and excitement of the reveal and the release is like half of the fun.
If you're not going to preorder it because you have no faith Sideshow can replicate this then either:
- Appreciate it as a singular piece of art.
- Just wait for it to ship and buy it or not then if it does/doesn't meet your standards. Subtract your negativity from the community.
Until then, and based on the prototype, there are only reasons to be excited and hopeful.

I suppose, but warranted is just another way of saying deserved. And I knowit kinda sucks for people who are interested in this piece to come and see a lot of negativity (hell looking at it now even I'm tempted to PO) but it is deserved and should be shown :P

Lol I was kidding. Impossible to tell, I know. I just thought it was funny because he's been mentioned on about every page since this has been revealed.
