1/6 Hot Toys - POTC5 - Jack Sparrow Figure (Artisan Edition + Regular) Collectible Figure

If anyone is up for it. I’ll gladly trade you both DX38 neutral & smirk sculpts for a DX15 neutral sculpt.

I think it was @Wor-Gar who might've said that the DX15 serious face captures a younger Depp to which I would agree. the new DX37/Artisan I feel is appropriate for his older look.

Even if I were to convince myself it’s an older Depp (which it’s supposed to be), it just won’t click.

You guys keep making me dislike this figure even more lol. Yeah… he’s definitely going to be a bottom shelfer for me

Lol nah man don’t let others opinions sway you.

The new Artisan/DX isn't good lol. Comments like yours only confirm what I’ve been seeing in the last few weeks. There’s just something off about the new one no matter how much I try to like it. If I had the DX15, I wouldn’t have gone for this new one. The DX15 is outdated in terms of the paint apps, but it’s a much stronger likeness to a younger Depp, and that’s what I want (ideally), cause I don’t want DMTNT Jack….

Those two pics by Maulfan are just perfect!!!

I hope he gets the chance to photograph the new Artisan.

I’ve come to the conclusion I like everything about the new one but the face sculpt, hat and unpainted palm glove hands…

New DX38 + DX15 neutral face plate + DX06 hat + DX15 hands seems the way to go for me…

This just looks better.

Give it time -- there will be pictures like that of the Artisan.

No doubt the smiling sculpt will look sick.

But I fear even his skills can’t pull a miracle with the serious sculpt

I'll admit, I much prefer the smiling sculpt on the Artisan... and I preferred the serious sculpt on the DX15... which is how I will display BOTH!

I don’t think there’s much even the best photography can do for the DX37/38/39 neutral sculpt.

It sucks and I’m tired of pretending like it doesn’t lol

Maybe one day.

I’ve changed my tune, I’d like a DMC/AWE 2.0. Just look at that, c’mon now.
