[VIVA STUDIO] Ace Ventura (new pics on p.23)

[Punishment1218]

You're basically paying $110 for the clothing. Who in their right mind thought this headsculpt was good? Oh well......I guess a Headplay sculpt it is.

Thanks.


That is pretty bad.

 

[armysoldier74b]

Picked one up.

At that price its a steal and plenty of talent on these boards who can make a great Ace HS.

Outfit looks not bad will probably do the job. Sculpt is horrific though! Was really looking forward to this and it's a huge let down. Who on earth looked at that and thought 'yea Jim Carrey, nailed it!' WTF lol it looks nothing like him. No idea what happened to Asmus sculptors but recently they've really been putting out really poor sculpts...

If you don't have the other one, couldn't you just pick that, superior sculpt up and pop it on this figure?

 

[Cap'n Cook]

I actually like the sculpt!

I actually like the sculpt!

There's always one

 

[batfan08]

I think it's the teeth that are throwing it off more than anything, IMO. I'd be curious to see what it would look like with some modifications to the mouth.

 

[Bullet]

I'm just gonna throw it out there, the sculpt is downright terrible across the board there's no Carrey in there at all! It's needs scraped and done from scratch.

 

[batfan08]

I don't know. There were a few shots where I could see quite a bit, but, again, it's that mouth. That being said, it probably would be for the best if they just redid the thing in its entirety for you guys. Especially after they've delivered results with the likeness that blew this one out of the water in the forms of their previous Ventura and Riddler.

I'm not gonna lie was really excited for this considering the 1st was so good but now this isn't so good they could of done way better the sculpt is just so terrible aha.

I got a reply from Asmus on FB

hi
Thank you for leaving message in our FB,
the Ace Ventura figure is not out for pre-order in the following link...
https://asmustoys.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=91
However, we do have seen the response online,
even though we feel the figure is very well done,
we still would very much like to learn to fix the problem.
so if you have any suggestion, please do not hesitate to let us know

 

[Pajji]

Yeah got the same message...don't know if they wanna hear what I think of the sculpt

 

[philmah]

Good news is that if the interest is there, mg2065 will do an Ace Ventura sculpt. Perhaps we can use this opportunity to get some accessories sculpted as well?

 

[EarlHickey98]

Just pre-ordered mine, really excited as I'm missed the first one!
The headsculpt is terrible, no resemblance of Jim Carrey at all! But for £76.00 it's worth it for the clothes and other stuff.

Someone should start interest list for an Ace Ventura headsculpt?

 

[galactiboy]

Glad to hear they are responsive... what's odd is the quality/refinement of the sculpt is very high. I'd say even better than the original version, but the features are so distorted that it looks inhuman.

 

[galactiboy]

I realized what it reminded me of...
