Still looks like one of Sideshow's best ever to me. Epic in every way.

When this first got revealed, it seemed like there was no way this could not be one of the all time SDCC show stealers.
Yet, here we are one day left, and while it's been praised and people have been complimentary and many impressed, it doesn't seem to have truly blown that many away. You can tell by the amount of pics posted, video taken, and chatter in this thread.
Compare the reaction of this to the reactions to the various Red Sonjas in years past. It's simply not to the same level of excitement or fascination which seems odd considering how much more complex and visceral this one is.
Reaction is almost 100% positive yet, it doesn't seem to be the statue everyone wants to or can't stop talking about.
I've already stated why I think the response seems a little muted compared to how impressive this should be.
People here don't agree with that assessment. That's fine.
Maybe it's just price? People are expecting this to be out of consideration expensive, so rather than cop an attitude of "I'll do whatever I can to afford it" they think "Likely too expensive, I'm out. No need to think about something I can't/won't have".
Whatever it is, it just doesn't seem to be the showstopper I'd imagined it would be.
