Hi Guys,

This is my first post.

I've pre ordered the EX and while I've collected a few Hot Toys this is to be my first Premium Format statue. However, a few photos that have popped up are making think I should maybe cancel my pre-order....







I know crappy phone pictures never help and that a good photo is all down to the lighting, but what's with the blue splodges? The paintwork looks naff compared to the promo shots which is all black. The face looks awful too. The eyes are open much wider than the promo and the paintwork again isn't very good in comparison. What do you guys/gals think, would these photos be enough to put you off? I'm not cancelling yet, but need to think about it. :/

EDIT - You can see higher res shots of it here.... https://www.flickr.com/photos/paulnomad/sets/72157646489384981

Your definetly new to this game.

All statues would look like that if used with flash, doesn't show the true statue.

Bad photos like that have made collectors panic in the past, it's best not to use flash when taking photos of statues.

Even with the crappy pics he looks awesome.

 

[brucecamblzchin]

I dunno about that, he was godlike at SDCC.

 

[LtCalumbo]

There's definitely more detailed/realistic paintwork on the promo model there.

 

[brucecamblzchin]

This was the same one at ACCC apparently.

 

[LtCalumbo]

Meaning it's the same one as in the photos I posted? Sorry, not sure if that's what you mean. It doesn't look like it, there's no blue at all.

 

[brucecamblzchin]

Apparently so.

 

[BurningRage]

I saw a bad pic now time to cancel.

 

[ActionJackson83]

I would never believe pictures taken with flash, it'll enhance all the imperfections and wash out all the colors of the statue, can you imagine if all your life you had flash shining on your mug? You or I wouldn't look very good either.

Thats why i hate it when someone takes a pic of me with a flash!

When you take a pic with flash on a black painted polystone statue the flash's reflection will be captured by the camera and will look blue. There are no blue splotches on this statue whatsoever.
