Yeah...I may cancel....

Cancel? I'd hold out until in hand pics show up and even then I'd keep to flip or trade

Having said that, if you watch the video you still see flashes of 'blue' in certain light. I don't think that photo does it any justice at all.

In b4 panic.

I have to agree with you, the blueish promo shots look so much better. It's still a cool figure though.

You do realize that the lighting at the show is pretty crappy, giving the mark vii stealth a dull look. Also I bet the type of camera used doesn't help either. I will not be cancelling this and losing my NRD, I want this!

I spose. But I'd rather cancel and make someone's day on the waitlist but that is only if I do cancel

Don't cancel because there are some bad pics from poor lighting a a bad camera used.

Yeah I realised this when I went back and watched the video, hence my post above

Still hoping for a conversion!

Guys heres another footage with nice close ups at the exhibition. Thats classy

Great vid. Can't wait! Love the matte black!

 

[Erndog]

I'm.... A little disappointed.

It's darker and has a lot less sheen than I was expecting/hoping.

I still like it a lot and wont cancel... But slightly disappointed. Looking forward to seein it in hand though!

Some nice pics from that video link.
I think this is gonna look sweet in a detolf with LED lights.

I wasn't planning on it. When all the in hand stuff comes out, thats when I'll decide

 

[King T'Challa]

Its a great figure. The only problem is: bad lighting/glass reflect and also the pose... Who did that stupid pose for god sake??

All sarcasm aside, I'm betting a lot of people who have this pre-ordered, including me, can see this statement as a summarization of their current feelings about this figure. When I saw this on SSC's site last week, I overlooked the price because the paint job looked absolutely out of this world. I get that the current crop of videos and pictures may not be doing this figure justice, but it looks NOTHING like the SSC promo shots, at least to me. I see very little translucency and for the most part see a flat(ish) black paint job that is no more or less impressive than what I've seen on other 1/6 IM figures (full disclosure: I'm relatively new to collecting these and have not seen as many as some of you have, I'm sure).

I am not cancelling my PO and will reserve final judgment until it's released, but my idea of this being maybe the most impressive paint app ever is seriously in question, at this point. I really hope the differences I'm seeing are in fact due to the photographic environment.

I completely and utterly agree

Just remember, your shelf or detolf isnt a hot toys photo studio light box either... these pics are likely closer to what you guys will all actually look at on your shelves everyday.. food for thought
