Yeah, I'm really annoyed about the downgrade of the prototype also. It seems like they made him thinner and less movie accurate to accommodate for articulation. I don't like overly-articulating Hot Toys, so for me it's a real downer, as the prototype seemed pretty much perfect.
And the fact that the new suit material is obviously so fragile, it just makes the sacrifice of body proportions pointless, as who's going to risk having theirs in such an articulated way that it may damage the suit more easily than any other figure.
You can tell just from the crotch this was the case, nothing looks filled out, he looks too skinny. Incredibly disappointed. Gone form such an highly anticipated figure for me. I'll get it see it in hand, and probably wait for number two, I just hope they don't change the outfit drastically. And also hope Hot Toys actually fill out the suit, **** that prototype was spot on...
Just looking at the waist and chest width, how could they think the new one was an improvement?! His upper body doesn't look like it's a part of the same body as the legs - for me it's the opposite of the BvS Batman, from an awful prototype to such a masterful finished product. I think the biggest problem is the chest/rib cage/muscle area, in the prototype it balances out his hip indent to outer thigh curve, the new one is a very good child-bearing hips Deadpool.
