The quality of the photos Sideshow posts have never been a huge deal to me. But I personally think it would be a bit better if Sideshow does what McFarlane does with product photos having the bathed in full light images as well as moodier images with less light.Sideshow Q said:Here's the deal with photography. The photography department falls under me and our very talented photographer has my 100% support. I approve all the shots and often times direct the shoots. The philosophy behind our general photography is as Dave says so detail isn't hidden. Our figures are not only about the sculpt but also the detailing in the costuming and accessories, which everyone seems to forget. These images aren't used only for our website, but also publications and retailers who require these types of masked images. When we want to add extra "pop," we'll use more interesting lighting effects and backgrounds, as seen in some of the blogs and newer gallery shots in a few of the Star Wars figures. As far as "futzing" with figures with water treatments and such, we intentionally show the figure as much out of the box as possible, but of course with some straightening out of the costume.
So for those of you calling for heads, maybe you should call for mine instead.

Also I've noticed that the figures lately have been in more interesting poses with the costume straighten out afterwards. It's a much appreciated improvement.
