Me three. If we were gonna get proto heads for replacements, then the original pics wouldn't have been taken down from Sideshow's product page.

I'm just curious if Sideshow's done this in the past where they switch prototype pics with production shots when a statue is released?
I would say they don't. Sideshow doesn't even update the text/specs (e.g. hight&weight) listed below the already released products..

So this is like others said, a new trend to cover future complaints.

I already was wondering why they chose such bad preview photo of Colossus's sister (Magik), bcs she has more than one paintflaw on their already. The trend has set, so you know what to expect when it's shipped

You messed up big time, Sideshow. You s**k!

And I think you guys are right about the replacements not looking as good as it could've been.

All the rogue statues come that way with the gap which makes the neck look much longer. Check yours as well.
