I am dissapointed. The unmasked likeness is AVERAGE at best. The pose is Weak.
sure we finally got a Part 3 PF but IMO it's a weird looking piece.
^^^These were my initial comments after seeing the piece. After debating with myself for about 5 hours i secured the EX & do not regret my decision.
THE BAD:
-The EX left hand looks awkward. It would look better down, in a resting position. This is what turned my off when the piece was unveiled.
-The unmasked facial expression looks mellow & confused (as if he's conversing with mommy). The likeness is good, but it's not the expression i would've chose. I was hoping for a menacing look like this (minus the gash and blood of course):
the GOOD:
-The pose is fantastic. At first i was let down because I thought the pose was boring. It's the perfect CLASSIC MUSEUM POSE for this Classic Part III Jason.
-One of the best EX's i've seen. I could care less about the art print, but the display options are terrific.. However, I can almost guarantee I will be rocking the regular (Axe and Mask) & will never display the EX head and machete at the same time.
-The price is very fair. Sideshow could've stuck it to us with this piece. If they wanted to they could've put this up for $330 and i bet most of us would've still ordered.
-Overall, this is the best Part III Jason available. I am excited to get him in my possession so i can compare him to my Part VII Scream Scene, which i still think is the best executed Jason Statue available.
CONGRATS ALL
