- Scorpion 1:3 - proto pics are not the same.
- Sub Zero 1:3 - proto pics are not the same.
- Darkness - leggings, belt and shoulders are not the same.
A few Akumas googly insert eyes and I guess to be nitpicky all 3 of my Akumas have holes in the Gi's showing exposed wire. Not a big deal to me as I just painted the wire and you cannot notice. |
Thank you for replying with civility. I was going to edit my post to make it clear it wasn't a personal attack. I just wanted to hear what could be a majority opinion, because I haven't seen the same sort of factory issues that people are claiming (about
mixed-media specifically).
I just said 'long', as that seemed the implication due to it "affecting PCS's reputation and business". Of course, to be honest, I think we both know the conversation is really about the 1:3 ninjas.
I appreciate the point about the ninjas not matching the prototypes. That happens industry-wide, so I don't see it as a PCS issue. And I understand seeing the prototype, and wanting 'exactly that'. But I would disagree with an assessment that the factory's efforts are substandard or significantly below PCS prototypes. They're just different. If you don't like that difference and are disappointed, again, I get it.
I liked the look of the Scorpion prototype (with it's fabric), and despite Jerry saying the fabric is the same...it certainly looks different to me. BUT, I also think the production models appear to be better quality, satin-like fabric, that's also more accurate to the game. And I like it as well.
And all this being said about the ninjas...most people still haven't even gotten them
in hand yet to actually form an accurate opinion. So there's that...
