I hope it won't be an easy excuse for future googly eyes statues in general "we wanted to make it crazy"

Problem with that response is I don't even think it's accurate.

Look at the prototype pictures; the design of the statue/direction of the eyes is intentional. It doesn't really have anything to do with "crazy." Both heads have eyes looking in that direction.

Recently, a few collectors have been lucky enough having a crazy WW.

The production pics show the alternate head's eyes as being relatively even, so one being off is def wonky. I was about to get this, but I am in a collection limbo atm with medical and car bills piling up, so the wonk eyes are kinda, sorta, just barely enough of a risk to make me hold off.

Regardless of this is how they intended it, it looks awful. Too bad really, because the jester head is the only way I'd display this piece if I had decided to get her.

Actually most female statues are like this now. Not really bad but not perfect on the eyes. All my last several was the same.

I love this statue. Simple yet amazing to me.
