The red inner hood segments should be individually sculpted not just painted lines and it should be raised from the torso not flat across it. Hood/torso should be longer with a narrower waist, thus shorter legs. Shoulders should be wider. Arms should hang down straighter. You have to figure a way to add articulation that allows the arms to move straight up and down.
These aren't nitpicks, these details make it look significantly different from the source material, and for a buck twenty five you got to get these things right. That's too much money just to donate to the project for attempting this figure. |

It is instantly recognizable which is a key factor, despite minor differences. Sculpting in all those ridges would have been an extra cost.

I believe they stated on FB that slight changes were made to avoid copyright issues...

I love this!!!
$125 is a very fair price considering the size and limited production run. Hoping to get two!!! Thanks for sharing. |

Pass. I get that it's meant to be cartoon-ish, but that's a turn-off for me.

10 inches is too short. Looks are awesome but it should be closer to scale. Bigger size bigger price.
