How do you know the paint is finished? These pics could be from any part of the process and the final highlights might be put on at a later step.

I will wait for my in-hand piece before judging. I'm just glad there is photo evidence that this piece is actually not vaporware. After over 2 years a part of you starts to wonder LoL. For God's sake, this process has taken so long, the license ran out.

This is why in all this time, only Sideshow has produced a 1/4 scale statue. It is just really, really, really hard to do well. I don't see any other company lining up to go after this. Not Chronicles, not Sideshow, not PCS.

Just like Predator . . . paint app and QC are a nightmare.

Yes,but no 1/4 or 1/3 ,or 1/6 to compliment the Cain or Ed they did,..I think they are a little scared...it's very hard piece to do right.

This is officially the most controversial piece I have personally seen anywhere, on any forum.
When it comes to paint jobs, I have not seen one PCS piece that I think looks meh..One thing about PCS, there might be QC niggles here and there but the paint work on their pieces on a overall basis is very nice.
You cant beat PCS for quality vs value for money statues.

I feel like this one is going to sky rocket in value in the first years after its release but man, that release is taking its sweet time getting here. lol. I don't even want to see more factory pictures at this point, I just want to see an email with my shipping notice.

Chronicle talks a great game but I will believe it when I see it.

Sideshow didn't do a 1/4 scale RoboCop statue.
