I don't know, the body looks on point to me. Cavill is short, has short arms and tiny hands. And I can see that in those pictures. What do you think is wrong instead?

That comparison actually makes me think SooSoo's has the better likeness by a mile. However their hair sculpt is bringing it down a bit. Seeing this sculpt with some high quality rooted hair would really do it wonders.

Uh, yeah clearly. Not sure what to tell those that are Buzztoys as superior. Almost like that "what color is this dress" from a few years ago with how some people see visually.
 
I was looking forward to the announcement but now for some reason, I don't have much interest.
Can the head even be turned with that sculpted hair ? And with promo pics not showing much articulation is even more concerning.

I'm so torn on this. I kind of always avoided SooSoo, mostly because of the stuff Kit has talked about with them being shady. I had heard they were mostly reliable when they release stuff, so I went ahead and bought that Wilson Fisk figure. It's really nice but the yellow staining (that some are saying is already getting worse) on the white suit is a bummer. So I figured I'd stay away again.

But this Geralt looks really nice. At least, the armor does. I liked the season 2 armor so much more than the season 1 armor. But the hair and eyes (looks a bit crosseyed to me) are a big turnoff. But the likeness definitely looks stronger than the Buzztoys version. That said, Buzztoys was supposed to be reworking the sculpt, so will that look just as strong upon release?

I'm going to have to think hard about this, but I certainly hope for Buzztoys sake, they get theirs out soon. With Cavill leaving the show, and the show being subpar to many, I can't imagine this will be a character people feel they need two of in their collections, so let's see if the Buzztoys version releases in the coming weeks, and maybe it'll be easier to make a decision.
 
This is what SST was going for:

This is what I think BT was going for:

Which is what I prefer. Because SST version, while pretty good, it reminds me too much of HT BVS Superman portrait...and I’m not the biggest fan of that sculpt.

I’ll still be getting this no doubt...but currently I think BT portrait is better. And apparently they’re re-working the sculpt right? I hope they don’t deviate too much from the prototype shown.
 
The sculpt looks really good! I soured a bit on SooSoo with Comedian and some other releases as I thought the paint was not great, but then Kingpin was released and is excellent, so I hope they reach that quality of paint again. I kind of wish they did another hairstyle since this looks a bit odd, but I guess poorly rooted hair wouldn't be much better, so I'll accept it lol
