Thanks, Joberyn. That's reassuring.

Inspected and put back in the box. She's ok. Paint job is inferior to Garrus though. I think she will get a repaint in the future. 7/10 effort from Gaming Heads.

Where / who will you use for the repaint? Plus, what parts don't you like? Personally, I think 95% (if not more) production statues would benefit from a professional repaint. I wish these companies would sell these statues in kit form!

Will use a local repainter in The Netherlands. He does paint jobs for kits too, he's good.

What I don't like is the sloppy line painting. The blue mixes in with the white. The colors don't pop and are a bit washed. Her face is ok, but also a bit underwhelming. Mine doesn't have the heavy make-up though. She's decent, but will pop even more with a proper paint job.

Garrus was better.

I was playing this line one statue at a time. Garrus was satisfactory, so I was happy to continue with Liara! Now that Liara seems to be 50/50, I'm not sure about Tali.....

They're the only ME statues in this size. So that sells on its own.

To be honest, if I can't get quality I'll take nothing. When SS released their parody of Shepard it was, at the time, the only ME statue available...... I didn't buy it, and I have no regrets.

Ah well, if you have a few $ or € to spare, who cares. I enjoy the SS Shepard and the GH Liara and Garrus, because they represent my most favorite game of all time. SS Shep isn't even that bad aside from the goofy stance.
