Yeah, it sucks that other companies have to wait on their shipment. But if I can save a few dollars here and there, I don't mind waiting a couple of extra weeks.
 
Got my Fury yesterday, here are a few quick pics I took.

They have definitely made a change in their painting/casting technique or something. Whatever it is, the sculpt surface really catch and reflect light (much more than previous sculpts, like Peter Parker), makes it look very 'plasticy'. Also noticed this same thing with Red Skull Hugo as well as Mark 1 Tony. This is a very recent change, whatever they did it was obviously done to save money.:(
 
I don't mean to come off as an a$$ or anything, but you guys DO know that the reason the figure looks so awful in those photos is because he used a flash. Even real people look waxy and nasty when you blast 'em in the face with a camera flash. Just look at the photos taken by some other folks. They don't look like that. If he had taken the same pics, but used a tripod (or anything else to hold the camera steady) and done a long exposure, the photos would look way more natural.
