Nope, they've added a completely new line that runs up the side the the chest instead of it being a straight line into the armpit.
I sent it to them a year ago, as did others. That's why I'm a bit pissed. It's the only thing that is objectively wrong.

I'm very curious if that extra line under the armpit is a deal breaker for anyone.
I can't call it a dealbreaker because to me it's the ONLY problem with the figure. But it's very annoying as they were so so close to a flawless figure.
It shouldn't be really. But ****, that kind of obvious mistake should be fixed.
Yup. This was one of the points I sent to them a year ago.
They gave me the usual automated response "we'll pass this on to the team".
Such a damn shame about the piping and the shoulder glyphs.
It's one thing for a figure to look good, and another thing entirely for a figure to look accurate.
Still, I'm keeping my order.
But.. what if Hot Toys hits us with a 2.0 announcement tomorrow, and upstages Inart?
Most of the other stuff could be put down to nitpicking, but making details up? That's like making Darth Maul and designing your own face markings.

I'd really like a MOS 2.0 from HT with a new sculpt.

Not a deal breaker but it also makes no sense. Sometimes it’s impossible to recreate delicate details in 1/6 but adding more lines? Never seen that.
I get it, no figure is perfect, nothing is ever going to be 100% accurate...BUT THEY ASKED FOR FEEDBACK!

That's where they really left themselves open to criticism imo. It just compounds the issue.
I would not expect them to be as engaging with the community going forward. As per the usual when companies find their stride (be it good or bad) within the industry.
I forgot this has the kryptonite rock. I like that. Will we find out its a China exclusive in a month?

lol no. people complaining about it probably bought the hot toys version with its incredibly bad HS
At least the HT is 'accurate', even if it is a bad attempt. And HT didn't say "hey, is there anything we should fix? The stripes? Yeah ok, go **** yourself"

It's impressive, a figure from 2024 is much more accurate than a figurine from 2016.
Not to mention that the InArt version is much more expensive.
Your point would be right if HT actually made more accurate figures with their inflated prices in 2024. Unfortunately for you, that's not the reality. Since body proportions have NEVER been a thing that HT cared about and of course these releases among countless other examples exists. I wouldn't call these accurate.
