Kier Valkyrie of the Dead Premium Format Figure

[The Giamontan]

When was the cape added, was that always there

Yes. it was always there.

 

[creature4000]

Yeah... it was there, but I don't think we noticed the detail on it... at least I didn't.

They also didn't not show the other side of the head due to the hair line issue.... I just hope it's not too noticeable.

Speaking of things we didn't notice before, I just saw that she has two small wounds on her back in the production photos. It looks like she used to have wings, maybe? It's a cool little detail.

 

[El Mule]

Yes she's a fallen angel and her wings were ripped when she was cast from heaven. it wasn't there in the earliest pics but i'm super glad they added it, it made me preorder as soon as i saw the in hand pics.

 

[Vallos]

I don't recall photos of her when she was shown at SDCC and when she went up for preorder without her cape. I'm inclined to believe this was one of the reasons she was delayed.

I think when you get her in hand you'll say, "oh, there is no hairline issue. What was I thinking?"

jpuli28 posted a question about the whole hairline thing on the "Ask Sideshow" thread over at SF. So let's wait to hear what Alex from SS has to say.

Thank you Alex,

Unfortunately, and coincidentally, the website production pics avoid her right side, the side of the paint app in question...

If I had to guess, it looks like all the right sides posted here.

can't wait

i have no idea how good the blood will be in hand and pictures don't help me about this unfortunately

 

[Vallos]

I'm eagerly anticipating your photos, Eky!

 

[Vallos]

There are some awesome photos on Facebook... She is exceptional.

... Not to start a flame were but I saw the same pictures and I like it but when I started to look closer at the piece it looked more and more lacking what I care for. 1 the fine detail on the parts on the base were really bad. 2 the paint on the face had some really bad and weired 2 tone shadowing on it and 3 his statue didn't fit into the base right and you can see a big gap aswell with the peg showing. Sideshow at it's best again.

Yup, me too. And my Weta Minas Tirith is coming Monday, and it looks like Leia should be released soon. Going to be an expensive month!

 

[The Giamontan]

My last Flex is Mar 5 so hopefully she'll ship to me then. Got the Executioner's last payment then as well as the Delorean. Gonna be an expensive month.

Clearly it's something with his photos causing that shading... coupled with the paint finish, and maybe lighting used?

Base looks fine to me.

I did mention to him he should lube the peg with a tiny bit of glycerol. Works like a charm for me every time a get a piece that won't go in all the way.
