I was inferring that when these two companies combine, the production piece rarely ever comes out even close to the prototype. Most of the Sideshow Iron Man Maquettes come under this situation.
The problem is that the prototype is so very impressive, that the production piece is ‘usually’ very very lacklustre in comparison.
Prior to the Mark 3 Maquette coming out, everyone was crossing their fingers that it would come out okay, due to their prior record. Even the Mark 3 took a somewhat noticeable drop (still a solid piece), but then again we were lucky it wasn’t worse (which has happened on more than a couple of occasions).
But this thing looks so good, and is so cheap I’ll probably place my preorder as soon as I can.
