I won't spend 1000 euros for that
The old ARH statues have a better paint job

Given the PCS price point combined with the price tag, the piece turned out fine.

I tend to feel that PCS 1/3 looks like upscale 1/4 scale when it comes to the paint app. I guess for the paint app to be upscale would mean for the price tag to increase.

Vampirella turned out good. I prefer my 1/4 Sideshow PF

Yeah thats what i felt too when i got it in hand....the last artgerm PF is better really in terms of what you get for the price....so i lost interest in this and add to it the defects....but ye i am just returning it for an exchange....i also want the purgatori so maybe that one will be a better experience

That paint job looks basic AF. Looks more like something you'd see on one of the small DC Direct or Diamond Select pieces.

The sculpt is there. Can you imagine what level a pro painter could take it to, assuming they had the passion to do so. It could look amazing.

This would be a very nice piece to pick up if it goes on the disco train that’s for sure. Not a huge fan of the face , but presence and ……... curvature is there

Right...picked her up this afternoon, I'll put pics up tomorrow but first impressions are good, I was worried after seeing the pictures posted, but she's beautiful, well worth the wait for my first Vampi.
I promise there will be pics in the morning

Welp, looks like a big diamond select piece. I’d pay $100 for this but at $1,000 hell no.
Now to wait 50 years for the prime 1 version, which I know will turn out better than this.
