Eh, it doesn't look bad at all. I've seen far worse. Besides, if they'd made the windows smaller, nerds would just waste time complaining about how Batman can't see through the windows or some stupid shit like that. See the weirdness about the recent Stinger in the o-ring thread for examples of what I'm talking about. There's no pleasing all the nerds all the of the time...or even some of the time.

Okay, it's one thing to use a L/R flipped photo in your promo pics but am I seeing Supergirl's S flipped wrong on the actual box itself as well?

Yeah, I thought that was funny but I cut it slack. First, it's a store exclusive and a repackaging of toys you can get other ways, and it's geared towards kids who throw packaging away anyway. Second, it may not be like that on the actual product. Pre-production photos have gotten really hasty/lazy.

Why in God's Name would they choose to actively flip one character in a picture-within-a-picture? I mean, there's a photo of the box and then a photo taken of the figures. They joined those together and flubbed flipping the promo shot before assembling with the pic of the box. That's an accident plausible for anybody to make in a workflow.
But the pic being flipped on the box but the text being normal means they flipped her *twice* for some reason. That's either deliberate choice I can't make sense of or indicative of repeated incompetence; not just a one-off accident. It being an exclusive is irrelevant since Amazon wouldn't be the ones making any of those decisions or actions. |

I like to think it means, "*snicker*". If I worked for a toy company, I'd do shit like that intentionally all the time just so I could read the comments from adult collectors later & save 'em for the Xmas party.
