That's some PS2 looking FX garbage right there.

Don’t get the hate this piece is getting. He looks pretty awesome to me on Facebook. Sure he isn’t 100% “prototype” but he looks pretty darn good to me.

I’d be very happy with something like this and would pick this over the Iron Studios version easily.

Yup. Netflix Punisher wasn’t the best but it was much better than that dumpster fire.

People tend to overreact. The paint doesn't match but it's a clean paint job. It's actually pretty nice. It just doesn't have the layering that someone like Kat Sapine would take hours to accomplish.

I don't think I'm going to buy this piece since I already have a Punisher I like, but I think those that do are getting a pretty nice statue.

Looks great. I love the texturing on the shirt.

With mass production there is bound to be lower quality paint jobs.

I can’t believe I’m about to say this, but XM is mass produced in the same factories and they don’t get the get out of jail free card because their paint ups come as advertised.

So people tend to overreact U say, but yet you're not buying it anyway, so I guess that is why you're not going to be overreacting, plus by my understanding if you bought a brand new car you'd be happy to take a lemon instead nothing to overreact about it's still a car just not what you paid for and expecting to be delivered to you.



Here are three images of the statue, the first is what they advertised the second is what I actually saw at SDCC and the third is apparently from Facebook I understand. Even though we are receiving an "OK" statue it is not what was advertised and clearly the face is not the same.



The point is that they're advertising one thing and then they're completely giving you something else. As it's been stated so many times here why don't they advertise what they're actually gonna give us then we will not be overreacting as you say. I'm still going to take it because I think it's still OK, and yes I know it's just a statue and "ART" is subjective one can be different from the other, but this is not the case this is clearly laziness or more to the point low-quality paint jobs.

I've only got two Sideshow statues that I've pre-ordered left. Those days are gone now where Sideshow statues sellout on the first day or two they tend to be around for some time now so as far as Sideshow goes I'm quite happy to see in hand pictures now days.
