Re: New Doom PF?
I'm really liking this new PF. Pose is strong, cloth detail looks impressive, and I'm glad the base isn't yet another pile of rubble. I had the original ex and loved it, and as far as I'm concerned that is the most impressive piece SS has ever and will ever produce. I wanted the LSF for several months after it was revealed, but the arms look like he's directing diners to their table and SS has an absolutely horrendous track record with the QC on their 1:2 and 1:1 size figures. I'll be happy to add this new PF to my collection.

Re: New Doom PF?
I have to say in my opinion the throne doom just looks like he is plotting pure evil and I think the pose is iconic.

If the LSF was never released, I think everyone would be drooling over this a lot more. Kinda wish that they did reveal the LSF after now.

Re: New Doom PF?
Agree and I'm surprised they released 2 such similar poses of doom so close to one another.

Re: New Doom PF?
well if the prices were closer together, I could see it being more of an issue. Not regarding the big price tag on the LSF, it's a freaking huge statue, most don't care for something that big in their collection. As someone who has the LSF on order, I'm very happy they didn't put as much detail into this pf as they did with the LSF. They defn could have if they wanted to. I do think the helmet on the 1st pf looks better than this one and obviously the base/throne is better than this one, but that pf would of cost me $300-500 more than the LSF. Even though the LSF is huge, it was no brainer for me which Doom to get as the LSF has much more detail than both pf's minus the throne.

Re: New Doom PF?
it shouldn't be, that's literally the only pose sideshow knows how to make now.
Re: New Doom PF?
I think what is holding a lot of people back is that this piece kind of lacks that overwhelming sense of terror that one would expect of this character. To be honest, he doesn't look all that intimidating in this design. I don't like his clenched fist. I don't think it fits the character. Clenched fists are generally reserved to the good guys, and not the villains.

Re: New Doom PF?
Fair points Chris...despite already having the LSF on pre order I was totally pumped for this new PF after seeing initially the teaser pic of the base all those motnths ago and then seeing the top half of Doom in the other teaser pic last week...however, upon viewing the pics yesterday I'm just not as excited as I thought I'd be. I'm not saying its 'meh' but I guess looking at the base, I feel Sideshow could have really come up with something fantastic (as they have been doing with recent pieces) maybe a dioramic base perhaps would have worked better? Instead it seems quite bland
As for the pose, its okay I guess...but the Exclusive is another let down...a gun! Really Sideshow 
Like you mentioned, I'm just not feeling that sense of terror or intimidation from this piece which is totally needed for a character such as Doom...maybe a blessing in disguise that I've decided to pass on this one as I'm sure the LSF should be more than enough Doom for me

Re: New Doom PF?
Yeah, but if his fists aren't clenched then you get the LSF detractors saying he looks like hes directing traffic or singing a song or whatever.else they've been saying. It doesn't really matter what they did people will find something.
Re: New Doom PF?
Yea, well, I don't see what the LSF has to do with this piece. They could do both in the exact same pose for what I care. They are two individual pieces.

Re: New Doom PF?
Purely on an aesthetic level, I think the LSF is much easier on the eye...I don't think the cape on the LSF is as dark as it looks in that pic though the vibrant colours on the PF are definitely my preference of the two...but the base on the PF is so disappointing
Assume they both are the same scale, does anyone think the PF is better?

Re: New Doom PF?
I'm loving this Doom I think it looks exceptional. I'm not really understanding the criticism it's getting be oh well I'm more than happy with it
I've always wanted a standing Doom. The base is a little plain but I'm cool with that
The only thing I'm not excited about is the long wait it's going to be to add him to my collection

Re: New Doom PF?
The Ex looks horrible.Hmmmm.
Am I the only one here that would display him with his normal arm instead of the one holding the gun?
I am still not sold on him yet.
Not sure if its the color of green they chose or the way the hood fits around his face seems off.

You didn't get what I was saying. I was saying that even if This piece had open hands like the LSF, then people would be complaining about that as they did with the LSF. People will complain, no matter what the sculpture is, they will find something they don't like.
