Regarding the above, you won't find the word "review" on the video. I am trying a more instructional take and impressions out of the box going forward. You will also notice that on my recent Wonderwoman and also my next video that has already been filmed. I am just trying something very different with the format to try and get some joy out of the video side of things. I do understand if it isnt some people's cup of tea.
Are there flaws on this figure? Yup, I talk about the lack of the scar/scratch that was changed, Linda's hair (which I am 99% sure they used the stop motion model as reference in error) I talk about the neck needing adjustment, etc. There are some issues that I saw on the groups that I could not see at all on my figure so I can only go on what is in front of me. I also mention about mine having new stickers on the box and the base. Overall it's something I am glad I have and when the cabinets are up will be on full display (I hate having building work done). I do like it more than the SS version in the face. For me, it's kind of like the comic / videogame ash, but I 100% get people who may feel it's not a photo-realistic version. Just wanted to be super clear on the format thing.
Cheers

Andy , I'm sure that you've heard the saying " If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck " .
That's the same with your video , you can title it as an unboxing or instructional video but only the first minute or so was the unboxing the rest was you giving your opinions on the figure which is the same as a review.
If you had simply unboxed it and shown off the figure while staying silent or some funky music in the background then fair enough but you didn't.
Firstly you say that the headsculpt is more of a cartoonish/comicbook look rather than photo realistic, implying that was the look that they were going for but it wasn't.
Have a look at the proto paint that is very nice and film/ photo realistic, the fact is they dropped the ball with the final paint and gave it a cheap flat paint job and one eye wondering off in a weird direction which wasn't intentional .
1 Paint on Ash head is very different blood looks too uniform like a sweatband , it's very flat and cartoonish .
2 shirt collar looks ridiculously huge and oversized.
3 Neck is way too big and bulky compared to the head that sits on it
3 Body is different and too narrow, look at the shoulders
4clothing is very different, cheaply made and cut , trousers don't close .large stitching.
5 Boots are huge and look like something off a Frankenstein figure
6 Henrietta headsculpts being sent out without hair and the ones that have hair are only painted slightly better than the ones that don't.
7 Neck connector for deadite head is overly long .
8 The Ash possessed head , the teeth are clean
9 The awful swap out arms with huge ridiculous folds in the skin .
10 soft sculpt dagger
11 Oversized shotgun
12 Misaligned holster
13 Suspect weathering
You glossed over all of that which is a disservice to collectors who are looking for guidance.
What your video does is give a pass to Asmus who shared your video as they are happy with the content.
I know that you can do much better , you have a voice use it
Now the nice part , the video was filmed very nicely and clear close ups of all the parts and accessories.
