Opinions sought on Yamato's 'Sacrifice'

I have come across a seller with a couple of Yamato's Dorian Cleavenger 'Sacrifice' statue. The price is, I suppose, acceptable. What I am asking is for opinions on the statue itself.

Is it up to the sculpt quality of [say] Ritual?
Is the painting reasonable?

Basically, is it up to the quality of the later Royo or Wei ones?
I slightly get the feel it isn't, but I am basing my view on photos and have never actually seen one, which is why I'm seeking for opinions from those who have, or have had, one.

I am looking at the blue version. I think the slightly re-sculpted face on the EE one is a little nicer, but I'm afraid I loathe the red-brown used for that one's cloak, and think the overall effect is dreadful.

Thank-you in advance for your views,

Richard.

Ahh well. No comments.

Got it anyway. The sculpting is actually better than the pictures show. The background is a bit tacky and 'plasticky' to be honest. However, the figure (apart from her face) puts me in mind of the boss at home when we got married, curvy in all the right places. It's a very nice model. Not as inherently beautiful as TOI, but attractive nonetheless.

Regards,

Richard.
