My only fear is that this sells so badly that SSC doesn't even consider a revisit of the character in his classic Perez costume.

They would be smart to launch a variant asap.

I'm not sure I'd even buy a variant. I'm open to the idea but the sculpt is too smooth and feminine looking for my tastes. I think someone else hit it on the head when they said....it looks like a normal dude in cosplay you'd see at a CON. Slade needs to look like an elite athlete. He's the world's most dangerous mercenary. Beef him up a bit and put him in the Perez costume already. Don't try to make him a ninja and do make the damn sword ornate like it is in the comics. The sword is very distinctive. It's not just a blade. There's a story behind the sword. To some it all up, I'd probably just want a new statue of the character over a variant.

Plus, his daughter Rose aka Ravager is the one that dual wields 2 swords, not Deathstroke. Plus why not give us more switch out options. You have to have him with his unmasked portrait. Hell Funko even did that you would think the "highest" form of a character's collectible would at least have that. I just hope XM, Prime 1 or a revisit from sideshow comes out with a comic book version that does this character justice ASAP.

Could've rolled with Rose in this style costume actually. Just not Slade.

Yeah, agreed. This PF needed a classic Perez costume, a more muscular build, a COH unmasked Slade portrait, a switch out gun or rifle carrying hand, and the true Deathstroke broadsword. They decided to give us a cosplay ninja with a Deathstroke mask on.
