I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Weta is hit and miss, some of their 1/6 scale has decent paint app, but lot of their stuff also are really badly painted.

So I would just wait for inhand photos first.

I know what they’re capable of. I’ve visited their large booth in San Diego every year that they’ve exhibited there. Many of their LOTR pieces, in various scales, are excellent. Of course in-hand pics tell the tale, but Weta pieces often sell out long before production pieces exist.

I've never done a Weta PO before. Is the reveal before the PO, or at the same time?

I like the pose on Supes, but the WIP's of the face sculpt have me concerned. Seeing as Prime is doing a lazy rehash for the 1/3 Black suit, this version or a potential QS version would be my only hope.
