One last thing. Looks like her arms are made of some kind of translucent resin. I'm aware there probably was some harsh light on the show where these pics were taken, but could we please have some reassurance that under normal lighting conditions there will be no noticeable difference between the tone on her arms and that of her face?

Just FYI, this weekend is the final weekend. After which, orders will be closed for good.
Thank you for communicating with collectors and having a presence here.

Yep that's the goal. Consistent tone with her face and arms but do note that she has make up so it may appear tad lighter than the arms

Do you have to do a flex payment for her on Sideshow? Maybe I'm just tired but it seems like the only option. I just want to do the non refundable deposit and pay the rest when she ships.

Oh wow, are these photos recent? I must've missed it!

If you are in the continental US, Spec Fiction offers free shipping while Kinetiquettes charges 200 USD. I was initially thinking about that art print but the total cost difference was a bit high for me to consider buying direct.
Oh wow, I didn't realize that... no tax, free shipping, consider me sold! Thanks!

They were already posted in June, taken in Shanghai. The fact her arms and face didn't match made me a bit nervous then, as that reminds me of some DC Direct pieces which also used translucent resin, with a result I never found very pleasing.

At least those pics are better that what could be seen on these screenshots below. Again, I take it lighting plays a big part.

Spoiler

Ah, I see what you mean. A little too translucent makes her look like she's glowing like Iron Man 3
