The figure is based on The Jimi Hendrix Experience live performance on The Marquee Club in London, England, March 2, 1967.

Tracking from Korea says mine is in the city (LA) so this means stores here should have it this weekend or next week if you have it pre ordered from somewhere in the US.
Says it'll arrive at my house tomorrow, I cannot wait!
I'll take pics and videos for anyone if interested.
A video would be great, yes please!!!

So this is the hairdo we need to replicate.

Here's pictures since no matter how small I make a video it says it's too big.
First 2 pics are right out of the box and the 3rd is after messing with his hair which feels better than I thought it would.
First rooted hair figure and I'm very impressed.

I'm glad they made the headstock actual fender shape even if it doesn't say stratocastor. I still plan on getting more guitars and a 1/6 scale Marshall Amp for him.

Accessories.
The gold chain and the cigarette and pick are pretty cool.

Though this is looking better the accessories scream cheap! The guitar looks super fragile and the medallions look km. Considering I paid $20 for the unpainted serang ones which were metal.
However I"m really starting to like the figure, sculpt is growing on me.
Thanks for the pics! I have seen so many people sell or cancel their orders which I think is gonna come back to haunt them.

After some of the first pictures I was tempted to throw away my deposit money and not get this but after some of the more recent pics there is no way Jimi isn't going hanging around somewhere in my house. I'm really liking the looks of this figure!

I've opened my Jimi on Friday night. Initial thoughts.... its a mixed bag.
Unfortunately the sculpt does look like those ugly initial pics. You do need to put effort to make it look nice.
Not much texture in the face, the paint is not spectacular and the slightly open eyes are quite noticeable and not a small squint like the prototype.
Looked slightly better after i styled the hair with a little hair product.
Boots are sculpted but looks great. Tailoring overall is good, coat is a little thick but still looks nice.
The buttons on the black shirt is quite fragile... mine snapped off rather quickly.
The body and headsculpt are 2 different colors so the neck to body has a difference but you can kinda cover it with the scarf.
Hands look excellent, boots look excellent., mic stand is great, guitar is detailed.
Overall I'd give it a 7 / 10, mostly knocked off for the HS. With a repaint it will look better for sure.
Last photo is after I styled the hair and put on the remaining accessories like guitar pick and medallion

Thanks for the vid, think it has potential but the paint job is a serious let down, why the hell they cant reproduce the proto? even the fur lining has been changed for the worse, but that sloppy paintjob is unforgivable much smaller companies have stellar sculpts and paint....dont make sense!
