True. Many things that folks call grails have flowed directly through my fingers like water. I ordered the Hulk PF, Cap PF EX, Red Skull EX PF, Shin Akuma EX PF, and many others. They were all sold directly after receiving them because I just didn't like them for one reason or another. I do wish I would have held onto all of them, so I could cash in now, but didn't care much at the time. Perhaps it was the fact that I wasn't yet used to the whole PF treatment and preferred fully sculpted pieces. I tried my best to like them, but just couldn't bring myself to do it.
Now Jason, on the other hand, I loved immediately due to the fabric treatment fitting the character so perfectly. No flimsy t-shirt cotton material. No bright green neon poncho. Nothing at all did I dislike about his clothing or the execution of the sculpture. The vision of this piece was handled extremely well and I more than approve.
I also think the pose is great, which I understand that goes against some other folks' opinions. It has a perfect awkwardness and believable weight to it. The pose feels like that of a big, strong, weird loner, which is exactly what Jason is.
Aside from these points, there is also the awesome sculpting and paints which send it over the top for me. I love it and it is my new favorite piece.
