[Sarge]

I really wouldn’t be surprised.

Yep, he's talked about having to outsource some stuff for him as well

Ordered at Sideshow with my $20 off coupon.

Pre-ordered Kruge. Expensive but that type of look for a Klingon is iconic and needs representation in my collection. Hopefully it’ll be worth the price.

Thanks for the share

I know nothing about photography (point and click is my limit) . . . but I really have to acknowledge how MASSIVE the difference can be (for good vs. bad likeness) with a slightly different angle and/or lighting.

I may regret it later but I'm passing on this one. I just don't see the extra $100+ markup on the outfit.

Perhaps I'll change my mind or if not, I'll get lucky and snag one later on, on a sale.

I'm the same. I feel I may regret it too, but I have quite a few other figures I'll prefer over this. Not my fav' of the TOS Trek movies either. I like TMP and TWOK.

Yeah I'll likely go fully rooted with the nicer lamb hair. I'd be fine with fully sculpted on this too if it was done right, but I'm just not great at sculpting hair.

I was going to say the fact it's rooted main hair is perfect for your skills. Dremel off those eyebrows and beard! Looking forward to seeing your improvements.

That Neelix face is just too weird.

 

[Mike86]

If any character is fitting of a smile it would be Neelix. Odd choice in terms of expression and outfit.

Yeah. Nanjin NEEDS to use him for the promo pics and not whoever they use now.

Was hoping they were going to tweak the Kruge sculpt and change to sculpted hair. Not going to spend $300+ on a figure with old doll hair so it's a hard pass for me. Guessing Khan will be the same which is a shame.

Same guy, apparently.

 

[HPGR_Thrawn]

I thought Neelix was smiling in the early pics from yesterday. But now looking at it directly, that is... odd.

No. Nanjin has the promo pics done in China Mafia is here in the states.

 

[The Green Goblin]

Nanjin is the one who takes all the pre-order photos according to Terry Smith, who reviewed Locutus about a week ago. I'm guessing it's a cost cutting thing as to why they don't hire an actual photographer to visit their headquarters and do a photoshoot. Or it's them not wanting to risk losing a prototype to ship out to a US based photographer.

Um yeah. I'm sure this is what they were going for, but something got... lost in translation.

 

[dblaze]

I was going to get the whole VOY crew but if that is the FINAL Neelix sculpt, then I may have to pass on him... Actually pretty bummed about it really. Usually characters with so much facial detail are easier to sculpt and paint, but this is a miss... Even the hair line for the beard on the face looks really unnatural and its way too thick overall... I'm really hoping they tweak this.

It's gotta be the former, because there are absolutely photographers in China.

Oops. I'm guessing all our repeated calls back then for Exo to get a better photographer didn't go over so well. And is probably another reason he can't stand us now. Lol
