The prevailing sentiment was that the entire head-sculpt needed lots of work. The likeness/portrait and half rooted and sculpted hair.
But imo, the majority are fine with the specific look they went with. Most people just want the character. Cause IMO, most collectors are good with whatever companies puts out in terms of selections. Sure, there’s that vocal group that are against the S8 Winterfell look due to narrative reasons, costume preference, and because Season 8 wasn’t well received.
I also don’t think INART views S8 as “bad” like other parts of the world. I read an article where the public reception for S7/8 in China was positively received. The question is are they in tune or privy to the fact that the later GoT seasons aren’t as critically acclaimed or well received in other parts of the world? These things are also not globally licensed, but who knows. Something to consider.
Edit: to add, Seasons 7/8 aren’t even that negatively received when you think about it. It was still great TV and better than most TV schlock. It’s just that the vocal critics/fans really hated S8 cause Daenerys snapped and laid waste to King’s Landing? I mean the pieces were always there that she was descending into madness, it was just poorly executed by D&D.
