Just chiming in with my two cents since this is Groundhog Day...yet again. In this instance whether it's about the statues weight or detail and painting they're two sides of the same coin. It's not a coincidence for me that when SS have skimped on material (MOS Supes, Pred Bust and now this) the results are inferior to that of polystone and the details are compromised. Hell, even SS's material FAQ page list vinyl and pvc as inferior by how they decribe the two in relation to polystone.
In addition, I personally believe the main reason for the weight in the base is because SS are well aware that is the only thing that allows them to categorise the piece as a statue or maquette. Without it, it is just a vinyl or pvc figure w/ matching base.
