Prime 1 / Blitzway: Game of Thrones - Daenerys 1:4

Yeah that's a terrible seam... they should have just built the necklace into the neck and have that be the seam line.

I just wish the likeness to Emilia Clarke was a little closer.

Yeah her face is just not what it should be for this price, all I read is how great this sculptor is, but she did not do a great job with Daenerys, wonder if it looks better in person? Just hate to chance 1200 on it, although I do kinda want it just because its epic, I might just preorder it and if I see in hand pictures that still look awful I'll cancel it and lose only $120

That can’t be final. No way someone with a history as Prime 1 let something that awful get by.

By the looks of things her white outfit is connected to the neck ring. I guess they decided to have the portrait removable to allow for the neck ring to be put in place. The only other option might have been is to do what PCS did with Chun-Li 1/3, and have the neck seam located under the jawline.

If i had this on pre_order (which i considered) i would be in a panic right now. Either way, i hope they improve the neck seam.
The body and neck color/shade appears to look slightly different.

Will sideshow, spec fiction etc... accept returns if you are unhappy with the piece? I've never returned anything before?

The dress is hooked in the middle of the necklace. There are three very obvious solutions that would have started at prototype development.

1. Have the necklace sculpted into the body and her head just connects there. Just like any other superhero piece where the neck seam is hidden because the bottom of the seam is the start of the costume.

2. Reverse the above. Have the necklace sculpted to the neck where when connected it has a slight overlap over the body to rest in place. A small clasp or hook on the center piece of the necklace to rest the top piece of her robe on. Hell, Prime 1 themselves have done this! The Magic the Gathering Ajani has a necklace sculpted onto the neck, the charms of the necklace hook on the body.

3. Fully sculpt the head onto the body. I’m not sure why this isnt done with more pieces where full flesh is shown from upper chest to neck to head. The PCS 1/4 He-Man executes this flawlessly.

I wonder how this seamless one was made?

I would like to add another possibility why they have chosen for this method. I think Prime1Studio build the body In-House, and Blitzway has build the headsculpt In-House. After that it was just press-and-click.... And thats why they both have different skin colours?

Yikes.......
