The Sideshow one looks better but is also fixed to a stand and not poseable. One can also not tell by Sideshow's photos if their statue even has feet. You can't tell if the Hot Toys version has feet either from the solicitation photos, but given that it is a poseable figure, I would expect Hot Toys to give him feet.

Sideshow should include a photo in their webpage solicitation photos so people know they aren’t just getting a shapeless lump under the robe.

Assuming Sideshow can get close to proto quality I’d take there’s over hot toy's. Not too bothered about the feet thing either as you’ll never see them (same for the body).

Does Sideshow's base light up?

As it's more expensive than Sideshow, I don't know why Hot Toys wouldn't have just had 2 swap out faces included as opposed to ear swap outs that look ridiculously seamed.

With coronavirus, I don't see either selling out, instead an abundance of cancelled pre-orders and people offloading them on the secondary market. No point pre-ordering, especially before production pieces are shown.

The seams are not ideal, but the pose-ability of it makes it easier to place in the collection. I hope they make some engineering changes to address the seams. Having said that, I still PO’d it.

If they just make it two different heads with open mouth and closed mouth, different ears on each head I’ll order right now.
