I'm a huge Uncharted fan, but I can't justify buying this. The body and clothes looks great, but the sculpt is just awful.
 
Even if no changes are made, I'm still getting this as soon as it goes up for preorder. It'll go great with my Uncharted 2 custom by IDM once I get that in.

I've never played the game, but I really dig the figure. The outfit and gear are great. Just a cool looking figure.

They really are great.
I'm a longtime Xbox guy but borrowed my cousins PS3 specifically for Uncharted (and Infamous actually...)

It really is a great modern Indiana Jones adventure with some unique aspects (specifically his older sidekick Scully) that make it feel more stand alone than an Indy clone.

All 3 are great but the 2nd one is really one of the best video games ever. Definitely worth finding a way to play!
 
I think it's the mouth throwing everything off. The nose and eyes look spot on.
Even the mouth isn't too bad on tthe unpainted sculpt. I realy think the problem comes from warping/loss of detail during casting and a crappy paint job. I fully intend to have this repainted when I get it.
 
This may be the first video game character I buy.


Regarding the complaints about the sculpt, Nathan Drake is a generic handsome guy. He's going to have a lot of features in common with various Hollywood types.

Non descript handsome is probably the hardest to get right in 3 dimensions.
 
^Well, just so you know, Nathan Drake was modeled after Johnny Knoxvile, not Seth Rogen :lol. I wouldn't like to see either of them in the sculpt, but Sideshow really has to fix this thing before I even consider purchasing it. The statue looks significantly better than the figure, in my opinion.

I thought Drake was modeled after Nathan Fillion? I remember David Hayter mentioning that he actually called Nathan when he first played Uncharted, thinking Fillion was voicing and facial capturing Drake. :lol
