After getting my CW on Dec. 30 and posting pics here, I contacted SS about my googly eyed head. It had blotchy paint on the back so after reviewing my pics they let me know they'd replace the head because of the paint, but they let me know the eyes wouldn't be better.

Got the replacement today. Pleasantly surprised the eyes are better! Just a slight shift in the right eye makes a hug difference. It's been a while since I've actually felt satisfied with a SS PF. Enjoying my Catwoman a lot more now. Why couldn't we get it right the 1st time (and every time) sideshow? Either way, glad to feel this way about SS again, I've missed the feeling of satisfaction when putting together a SS statue.

Pics are phone crappy in not good lighting but now that she's worth it, it's worth pulling out the Canon and getting some quality pics.

Those eyes make me nervous. It's like there is no pride in the end product. They just want to get by...not trying to wow anyone

Yup, sadly most people just accept it as a "good" set since there are REALLY BAD ones, or because they just give up and accept that they will have to pay more money to have them repainted. I made this point earlier but I will make it again to reiterate how bad these paint jobs really are. I recently started collecting disney infinity figures and I was taking a close look at a Disney Frozen Anna figure and her eyes are painted MUCH CLEANER then these catwoman statues. Thats a 3 inch figure that costs $12 having better painted eyes than a $400 statue. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the ES is higher on those as well:lol The main issue is that where else are you gonna get a catwoman sculpt as nice as this statue? You could commission one but that would cost much more than $400.

I would take a guess that the Disney Infinity figures are not hand painted.

Should that really matter? One looks better than the other...both painted. One costs $12...the other $400...the $12 looks better. I don't think it matters if it's hand painted or not.

And if you want to compare hand painted statue eyes to hand painted statue eyes, check out the eyes on the green ivys! damn, now THOSE LOOK GOOD.

So I got my replacement body piece from SS after the first one had that saggy issue and this one is much improved. Definitely keeping this one. Now I just have to destroy the original one.

good lord, those 3 look good together! I have PI already, and CW coming, and now I'm debating if I should add Harley!
 
What was wrong with the original again? Or to rephrase, where was the "sag" happening at?

The ass size looks smaller at that angle, interesting.....

Congrats on the replacement! That surely looks like a better fit now!

I concur! These 3 can be my only 3 PFs ever and I'd be very satisfied. And yes, get the Harley when you can!

There was a log of sag in the material around the crotch area on the original CW I had. Someone else put it best saying that it look like she was wearing a wet diaper.

And in person they look sooooo much better. Everyone that has pass my desk stops to take a look and the all say how awesome they all look next to each other. And yes, you need to get Harley in my opinion.
 
I havnt even been charged yet as it's still in processing and you have received a replacement one - have most of you gotten yours already?
