A little. I guess it would bother me more on a more expensive piece. This one is sold out, so I doubt replacements would be available.

That is true so we can't be that picky. I can't wait for mine.

I think I got a pretty good one. The problematic right eye is pretty good. there is room for improvement but I can live with it at this price point. Paint over all is again good for this price point. I've seen better and far far worse. This is very heavy and solid and feels like a quality product. Overall if you didn't get one with a problematic right eye or can live with it this is a solid release.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I have this pre-ordered in multiple locations to ensure I actually get one (since DBSC has become unreliable.) I just got a shipping notice on one from Entertainment Earth and they sent it to the wrong address.

Closest to 1/3 scale as I said from the beginning. GG/Diamond needs to stop promoting these as 1/2 scale.

Eyes are poorly placed. She looks sleepy or as if she just ate a very special brownie. There should be no white under the iris.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I've always been told Prime 1 skews on the larger side of 1/3. Also, that these GG busts are a LOT smaller than Sideshow's 1/2 scale, but I don't have one of those to compare. Looking at some of their Legendary statues, they seem to scale larger than 1/2 (their Darth Maul scaled back to 1/1 seems to be a foot taller than he should be.)

I was looking at my own GG busts, and they seem somewhat correct. It generally looks like the average human skull is 8.5" tall, and most of the ones I have would clock in around 4.25" tall. So, it seems like they're in the right range.

I can't some up with a reason for the special brownie eyes though, LOL!
