If only they would’ve used real leather.

Not super blown away by the finish on this compared to the prototype.







Their 1/6 figure isn't perfect either, but is looking much better.

After the Christopher Reeve Superman fiasco as well, do you really have any kind faith in Sideshow that Film pieces will turn out good ? lol

I'm wondering if its certain factories, probably they do better cut/sew, that part came out good on superman. Its just the portraits they don't do that great.

The crow looked decent to me in person, but then again this flash pic could be drowning out the colors.

Yikes. The paint on the portrait (and the shading and texture) on the production version looks bad. This would have been fine 10 years ago. But now? No.

At SDCC...

I was a bit underwhelmed by this piece. Great head sculpt if the factory can pull it off. It was overshadowed by the statues around it. Kind of looked like a giant hot toy with the same lackluster base. Not getting this piece.

yep, after paying bank for a custom leather to replace Indiana Jones PF pleather jacket that was flaking away, it?s a real long term concern.

For some reason, I thought this was fully sculpt. Pleather has real issues over time. Not sure if I want to risk it.

Unfortunately (for me anyways), both the coat AND pants are mixed media.
