I got the Eva yesterday. I'm in all kinds of love with it but as you say i leaves a lot to be desired.
Let me just say that sculpt and design way it is beautiful amazing and out of this world and I mean that.
It is still lightyears in front of HT's female which looks like the body of Snookie from Jersey Shore. It's boxy, stubby, can not look feminine no matter how hard you try.
The way the eva poses is second to none. The way the legs cross over in front of eachother, the body weight shift, the way the hips can sit on axis to the torso/shoulders captures a real sexiness that the HT female does not have and never could have.
Quality wise- It's bad. The plastic feels very brittle, soft and the chest swaps, which is freaking fantastic sculpt wise. leaves a huge unsightly gap at the seams of the neck.
Joints are loose? Well mine are really good to be honest, Knees are solid as hell same goes for wrists, feet and shoulders. Hips? Well if you push them all the way ito the pegs they are OK but they keep popping out. Something that I hate and wish they did not come off at all. .
I've had such horribly floppy female TT's this is a welcome change of pace in tightness of joints but overall plastic quality i twice as good on Hot Toys.
Hot toys heads will not swap whatsoever, i founds some random peg thing from a wrestling figure to get mine to swap.
Feet will NOT swap from HT. Hands WILL.
Color: WAY to orange
'm in the process of swapping Silk Spectre on it which is all kinds of better already. It took me the whole damn day to get it to work.
but a lot of that was the way the SS suit worked. I had to repaint her hips and chest not so orange. I had to shave her wrists to get them to slide into the latex suit make the knee joints a little smoother and more seamless and chop off the ankles and drill a hole for the HT pegs to fit into and try and sand down the ankles to mah the HT feet in width as best I could.
I may try swapping ANH Princess Leia too but she kind of is a stubbier build. so i might not
