They made the mistake of listening to the fans by changing the hand that was saluting.
I do like the salute hand more than the new one.

This piece in hand is fantastic, still do not understand so MUCH hate. Obviously has more appeal with the broader audience with an ES of 2500.

I do not think the same will be said when Deathstroke's ES is announced

I call it a "salute" because that's the easiest way to describe the position her hand was in. Call it something else if that helps you get over this left arm/right arm nonsense.
Oh now you quote "salute" like as if a real salute is not what you meant earlier. You know what ...it doesn't matter. This was discussed to death earlier in this thread. I'm not going to rehash that debate. You can go read it yourself.

It looked like a sloppy salute with her left hand. Period. It looked odd. One can rationalize it anyway they want ...but it still looked odd. Even if she's from Krypton, the buyers of this statue is from Earth ...it still looked odd.

I still don't like this statue. There are too many things odd with it. Personally, with these prices nowadays, I'm not going to settle ...and buy a statue that doesn't appeal to me.

I think most people will agree with you. It is not a terrible statue. However, at $500+ after shipping, people generally more than just "not a terrible statue" for their buck, if that makes any sense.

Sloppy? Nah you're just wrong on that one.

Just bought this piece. #22/1000. Can those that own this as well tell me if theirs also swivels slightly at the point where her leg attaches to the base?
Like I can tilt her up so she's positioned straighter but she won't stay there.

Edit: Nevermind, had to really jam it in harder, now it doesn't move. Outstanding statue, not a thing wrong with it, no paint imperfections, etc.
