There's nothing controversial about stating the popular opinion

So if you dont like the Prime1 1/3 (mind you, i have both. Prime1's 1/3 and Sideshow's PFF), you are a flat earther.

Well, it escalated quickly as Ron would say!

Welcome to the 2% elite club, my friend.

I will closely watch your opinions about sculpts etc, cause you have an "artsy" eye and i respect it. I want your perspective regarding new sculpts.

Welcome to our club!

This is possibly the dumbest post I've seen on this forum, which is quite a feat.

The Forps philosophy seems to be an acquired taste for some

Many guys ask Forps "Hey, Forps how are you able to observe things in the sculpts, we can't? How are you able to instantly recognize whether a sculpt oozes a toyish vibe or if it has zero artistic direction? How can we tell if we,too, have an artsy eye?"

Well, my friends, do this simple test.

Put 2 photos of Batman who laughs PFF by Sideshow and Batman who laughs 1/3 by Prime 1, next to each other.

Or even put the sculpts (if you own them both) next to eachother.

I bet that 98% of you, if asked which is one is better? 98% of you, would answer (without hesitation also), Prime1.

You are fooled by SIZE, your eyes equal size to artistry.

Check Sideshow's PFF (with the enormous ES, i know).

Check the pose, check the sculpt, the paint, the finesse, check how refined it looks. It oozes ART.

Then check Prime1's. It is bigger, ok, but then the sculpt is ROUGH, the paint is "chubby", details are lost with too much application of paint. It looks like it was painted with a bucket of paint.

It looks rough, it looks rushed, it looks having 300 layers of paint on it ("chubby" paint), it has ZERO finesse, it is simply bigger.

Sideshow's Batman who Laughs is a MASTERPIECE.

His laughing pose, the sculpt, the details, the LIGHT application of paint, the INTRICATE application of paint (whereas Prime1's looks like it was thrown a bucket of black paint on it), the different colors, the artistic direction.

Sideshow's one is a MASTERPIECE. PERIOD. It is out of this world.

But i know that 98% of you will still prefer Prime1's getting fooled by the difference in scale (size).

So for the 2% of you, my fellow sophisticated collectors, yes, YOU, you are a part of an elite club in this hobby.

You have an "artsy" eye.

Welcome aboard!
