I think it looks great for what it is. Very cute. My niece, who turns 9 this summer, would fall completely in love with it.

Cool. Does she have $300 to spend on it?

I can totally understand that people are upset at the fact it isn't following the realistic approach of the PF's. It might have been better suited as a Comiquette instead, but I still think SS succeeded based on the style they were trying to go for. It may not fit in exactly with other Marvel PF's, but I like diversity in my collection. I can definitely sympathize though.

I ordered a regular, but I'm really on the fence about whether to keep it or not. While I like the sculpt for the most part, it is a little to cartoony for my tatses. My biggest complaint is not the face (although I have some reservations about it), but the fingers. Way, way to skinny IMO. Really easy to break, plus they look like white spiders. I'm keeping it for now, but we'll see.

Easy pass. Not a fan of the anime style. With a stylized piece like this, you need to have multiple statues of the same style in order to make it look like a collection. Otherwise it looks like a poor sculpting design when compared to the other PFs. So, I say, if you picked up X-23 you should be allll over this piece.

Ordered that from Play.com this morning i think X-23 looks the nuts
Yeah I dont have much interest in this style, but the statues look great. I think the two Sideshow PFs in this style so far would look great together!
Does your niece even know who she is?
In the uk this went up about 2am i wasn't going to get up as i thought there would be some left when i get up for work at 6am so frigging glad i got up now or i'd have missed the Ex

i think it looks good (as an animated representation of the character) but it doesn't match the previous marvel pfs imo. it's spot on to the source material but, to me, it seems like it should be an animated maquette rather than a pf statue...like the gentle giant animated pirates of the caribbean stuff.

Please do not tempt Sideshow! If they decide to do Cyclops as a companion piece to Emma in the cartoon look, I am going to be severely disappointed.

People keep saying "cartoony" it's J Scott Campbell style which is more animated but not cartoony. Either way if they do a Cyke in Campbell style he'll be rail thin with a huge chin and larger head because that also is his style.

i only ordered in the hope that something may change, if it dosent its an easy pass. sideshow serioulsy needs to scrap this idea and take another swing at it cause... it just sucks for a PF.

I'm so dissapointed....sigh.....but its Emma so I must buy
Well said and I completely agree.J. Scott Campbell has a unique style that doesn't, Like Dave said, easily translate into 3D format.
The sculptor did a good job of recreating Campbell's art. IMO, the only problem I see is the paint application.
