Nathan Drake by Sideshow Collectible

[The Josh]

I get what your saying. But..
Good pics of a good head sculpt = Great pics.
Good pics of a bad head sculpt = OK pics.
Bad pics of a good head sculpt = OK pics.
Bad pics of a bad head sculpt = Awful pics.

The head looks very poor to me in all the pics I've seen, even the one GB posted which has tried to be flattering to the sculpt and EYES. Good pics or bad pics. Anyway look at the stupid seam running down the top of the shiny plastic forearm!!

And that youtube video with Wolverine is the clincher, I have Wolvie and he looks exactly like that, so why would Drake look different....yikes!!

Yes, even good photos can't save a bad sculpt. Though at least in the one good picture the overall sculpt looks alright. I don't know Wolverine looks really washed out I that video. Ah well doesn't matter really.

PS: becareful what you google.

Because you spent $165.00 + shipping on the figure instead of having lights & electricity?

Well this last batch of photos has convinced me that canceling my pre-order was the right choice!

Sideshow will probably be giving these away free with every US order, like they did with Angelica.

Ohhhh... Hahaha Sony would be pissed cause I'm sure they have their hand in the cookie jar to get royalties and since this is a miss. Oh boy!

Well guys. I hope this guinea pig has been helpful and useful for your final decision about this figure. Since I bought this from toy hunters aka hot toys, I am unable to get a refund for this figure. I just hope some other company will make a better drake next time. I shall no longer buy from sideshow anymore. Goodbye from me and fat drake. Lol

I swear it looks like one eye is looking up while the other is looking down.

 

[jimmie_dimmick]

The whole left cheek looks distorted like he has a broken jaw or something. Looks puffed up.

 

[The Josh]

hmmm...

*thinks back to ACI LOTR thread*

I don't know if a photo will fix that.

B/c it is. SS Catwoman has an eye problem too

I think anyone who buys this and says meh I'll just repaint it is a dope, like why pay that much then just spend more money to get it right?

Indeed. I used to by SS pieces and say I'd repaint them but considering how much the prices have increased, I shouldn't have to take the time to repaint them. Same for those spending money to repaint them

You maybe said like 1% of that. Flash can totally make something look ugly. Having taken as many photos of Collectibles as I have I got a pretty good idea. Some of the folks here are posting really ****** photos, which gets the natives all crazy. Video can have lighting issues as well. Too much light or to little will also distort things. Those cell phone pics are awful. Only a fool will judge if something really looks good based off a cell phone pics, which some of them have too much light or not enough. Not to mention they're not sharpened enough to give you a good clear look.

hmmm...

It's like a half of a Travolta jaw line.

Not only the eyes, but the lids are wonky and make it look worse.

This is the worst sculpt I've ever seen from a Sideshow Figure. Now I have a bad feeling about Snake Plisken Good thing he only has one eye

I'm sure that can still **** it up with poor placement of the iris.

 

[jimmie_dimmick]

Seriously the left side looks like a bubble got in there which puffed the left side out, thus making the left eye larger. Poor QC.
SSC should fire their manufacturer and should fire whomever OK'd that for mass production.

Just find it odd that's all
