Eye of the beholder and all of that, but the reason I never even thought about getting earlier Rey figures is because imo the likeness just wasn't there. This one has always looked far better to me. Not debating your appreciation for the TFA likeness over this one, and I understand lots of folks prefer it. Just shows how subjective this hobby is.
No, I would agree with you that with TFA sculpt, the likeness isn’t all there in the face, and that’s the point. Because yet, I still found the likeness to be more there in that sculpt than this sculpt, but that’s just based merely on pictures of this sculpt.
The consensus seems to be that it’s better in hand (as it always is), which is a good thing, and QGF stated that he always had the same sentiments as I did where this sculpt just didn’t really come across well in pictures. Now that he has both TFA and TLJ in hand and said that this sculpt is indeed better in hand, which one he thinks of the two bears the better likeness.
