Yeah sure it's a grade up on likeness regarding that 2007 figure.

This reminded me of a bizarre video I saw a long time ago by chance, and now I think it's that "Odell" who delivers the sermon:

We don't really know either, but doubts have a name and it's not someone from KP.

Plus shipping and in advance, don't forget! :whistle:

Although the video image is not very good, based on the flag patch, the position of the pockets in relation to the buttons and the shape of its lapels, it seems that it is indeed the production version (edit: or a previous prototype, who knows, but probably product version):

Nobody here has doubted the artistic/production team but other factors. I can think of a couple of reasons: what if the director imposes a tighter-than-normal budget for the final production of the figure? What if the director limits the possibilities of the production team to maximize profits...

I think trying to talk seriously about 1/6 collecting on his usual channels would be like throwing a stone at a hornet's nest. He is a star, we are freaks. If he was really interested in these collectors and their world and interests, he would try to approach them where he knows they are...

In addition, KP would make serious updates on important matters, such as revealing the improvements they will make to a figure based on the opinion of their customers (they have recently done it with their John Wayne). But as I commented a few days ago, KP was soon put out of the game, and the...

I know KP and appreciate their work, but I simply can't believe both photos are of the same figure, sorry. Agree on the real problem: lack of knowledge of the 1/6 community and how to communicate with it. That's not KP fault, of course.

Exactly.

Let's focus on details that do not depend on the quality of a photo: is the jacket the same, sure? Do the bad light and lenses changes the shape and position of pockets, buttons and patches? Well, I appreciate the KP team, but that's enough. Especially this end of the year, with the flurry of...

Agree. Beyond the finish of the headsculpt, the differences are evident by looking at the shape of the pocket flaps, as well as the position of the jacket pockets in relation to the buttons, for example: Even the shirt collar looks different. As @The Clown Prince of Crime said, the flag is...

OUCH, in this photo the headsculpt looks plasticky old school style, distant from the prototype:

Maybe one of the problems is that expression as if an exhibitionist had just opened the trench coat in his face to show him the 'merchandise'. Don't know if that's the 'attitude' Sly is referring to in the new video genre that Nick has invented: the 'lets-do-this-fast-and-go-to-the-real-things'...

It seems unlikely that TZ will do a version of this look, because their Rambo III was for sale in Nick's Sly Stallone Shop (very expensive btw), so there must be some kind of agreement between them and it would be strange if they repeated figures. In fact, Nick's Sly Stallone Shop has mentioned...

Wow, I've missed important things here! The price is more or less what I expected but, if this figure is not offered in other stores with a regular preorder system, I will pass on it. Maybe I would go crazy enough to import it if it were the best Rambo figure ever made, but it's not. In a few...

What worries me about the white ones is I once bought some white boots made of a similar plastic to apply black primer to. It seemed simple, but once applied, instead of drying, the plastic became sticky and deteriorated. In fact, they ended up in the trash. Anyway, I guess the black version...

I'll do, thanks. EDIT: they send me a refund minutes ago, just after posting here and when I was writing them a message. Now the amount is correct. I think the same thing happened to me with a previous preorder, I would have to check it out...

Just got my invoice from KG but I really don't understand their pricing system, because the amount is quite higher (separate shipping costs) than the price at which I preordered the figure when it was announced (1200 HKD). Seems that if you pay only the deposit they don't keep the preorder price...
