It almost feels like SWtoys is fishing to see how much they can get away with when it comes to pricing. Pretty sure this figure will do well enough that they'll continue with this trend.
They haven't learned a thing after all these years, so why start now? The only thing they know and realize is, Resident Evil is a collector cash cow. And they'll keep capitalizing on it until they either go bankrupt, or until they're able to retire from it. lol
 
The extra accessories doesn’t excuse the price tag especially when it comes to the quality of their products and when the final product needs to tweaks to make look more presentable, idk… if she was under $200 sure but their last Jill wasn’t even that good. Whoever did their Lara sculpt saved them but even that figure had its issues. Plus, their last female rooted hair sculpt were pretty bad. I could be wrong and maybe they updated their QC but they haven’t sold me yet enough to pay that much if they continue with those prices. I’ll preorder her but I’m mostly interested in the outfit itself to update my current remake3 stars outfit Jill custom.

It'll part out well: I'll likely give in and grab a shirt, maybe boots, for my own Jill.. the rest can go in the bin. I just can't see anybody in the know making a purchase of the entire package.. people are damn careful about their money these days and I don't see em being willing to drop 300 notes on a questionable, third party figure.

You can still find their red Rebecca Chambers figure on the market and that thing was awful... yes, I'm still bitter about it!

Why is the STARS patch upside down...
Good catch, I didn't even notice. lol
I feel like this is one of those figures that one might want to wait for official collectors photos before paying in full.
Also think it's this companies first figure.
 
don’t care for the “greenish” look of the uniform either. Lol reminds of this old custom I saw. 👀 huge debate about it.
Yeah I still don't understand why they used such a heavy green filter for the remake version. Guess it added to the creepiness?
I don't mind it. Makes sense for a military outfit to be more green rather than blue I suppose.

This would be a very impressive custom, but as a product for sale, I don't get the best first impression from these photos. The upside down patch on the shirt is a huge oversight and the hand painted logo on the beret is sloppy (and I can't imagine a mass produced version even looking this good). Here's hoping it turns out alright in the end. If the price is right I'm willing to take the gamble, but I foresee this being the kind of figure you use for parts.
 
Finally got my MTToys Leon, definitely lots of fun! I certainly love playing around with his moveable eyes. Anyway, Leon had a little adventure in the forest...



That new Jill looks nice, too bad the beret doesn't look like it can be removed. It would be great if her price is $150 or something like that. I hope they fix that upside down badge and also make Chris, Wesker, and the others from Resident Evil 1.

I wonder if there's a company who will actually make the monsters of Resident Evil in 1/6 scale and not just statues, I mean fully articulated toys. We have a bunch of Resident Evil characters that barely have enemies to fight aside from those Asmus zombies.
