Captain Marvel Statue (Avengers Assemble)

Glad I avoided this one. A shame for 1/5 scale fans.

Hopefully they're not all like this, but I don't see the $425 value in this one.

Ugh not that I'm causing a scene but yours is 100% washed out. You can clearly see from the pic but i'm sorry your upset with it...Mine shows up tomorrow so I'll keep ya posted cause you may very well be right.

I know Pamp and tbh it may very well be that, we'll see tomorrow. You have to admit a lot of these pics are horrible and the person taking the pic tbh.

That's not a thing, send that back. There is no mildew effect ever

Y’all are savage… sheesh. Hoping you meant the pics were horrible and not the person was horrible. LOL.

I don’t think her colors are bad. But no amount of flash is gonna fix that star. I’m glad SSC has acknowledged my issue and is sending me a new body. Good luck with yours.

I’m quite surprised to see that some collectors have that high tolerance to the quality, as compared with that in the promotion pic, of a $425 product.

I think some collectors are reserving judgement until better pictures pop up because they've been around long enough to know how photo quality can affect the appearance of a piece.

Thanks, Black Cat. I had just assumed they put the vids on IG and youtube. I never check their YouTube channel, so I missed it.

So they never get close to the statue, which is a little odd because in lots of their unboxing they are getting in to highlight the details. I did notice that the star is NOT damaged/scuffed up. So two people having that issue doesn't bode well. And I have always thought she lacked detail in the face, and the production piece is even less detailed. I do agree with you the suit colors are more vivid in the video than the photos, but I took that into account from the iPhone photos. It's her extra washed out portrait and that jacked up star that would have made me say "well, I tried, this piece aint for me/"

I do hope yours turns out great though - beat the odds!
