I´ve posted with a pic on the beginning of this thread what on this mask is complete wrong.And its a lot.So you must be no expert to see that.;-)

Do you have an in-hand pic of the shipped product to share?

Why does that matter?

They're advertising an inaccurately sculpted bio mask. Do you think they're going to completely re-sculpt it to be accurate before it ships out?

Looks like the Bio on the Maquette...Inaccurate.

I really like the base on this, much better than the others.

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

Agreed, though I prefer the HCG base.

I preferred the SS base when it 1st was shown(the only part of the piece I liked). However I recently acquired the HCG prop disc and now don't think the SS base would work as well. The 2 discs are not similar enough and it may look distracting.

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

I like the SS base. I just think the HCG base is more subtle, while still perfectly representing P2.

Sooooo..... You're trying to say sideshow's promo pics are exactly what we'll see in hand?? Come on kiddo!??

When it ships and some in-hand pics are posted then all the poo talk about every little inaccuracy will have some merit.. That's all I'm pointing out.. Until then, all the talk is just that... Talk...

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

No, that's not what I'm saying at all.

What I am saying, for the third time now, is that it's highly unlikely Sideshow will fix the inaccuracies in the sculpt before the bio mask ships out. That's not really something they're known for. So it's completely acceptable for people to be disappointed and express their disappointment.

The "poo talk" you speak of is simply well-deserved criticism. Looking back through this thread I don't see anyone relentlessly bashing the bio mask, but simply acknowledging the inaccuracies. Some people have even posted comparison pictures to an actual prop to identify the inaccuracies - i.e. constructive criticism.

Yea, it is too bad SS won't fix the issues. I would order this and the Maquette in a heartbeat if they would.

If you don't like the professionally painted proto you're going to hate the production piece.

I think paint is the least of the issues with them.

The shape isn't going to change...

I'll display my little squishy face alien mask with pride!!

I have one ordered as well, I have an HGC version, and this one will stand by its side

It's a nice thought that the prototype will correct certain aspects

One day somebody will give us an epic P2 hero bio.... And i'll pay whatever they ask for it!!!

 

[mr.thrifty]

[Python]

I like your optimism lol.
