Glad I picked the CAT toys version, very affordable, and very good in term of headsculpt (with rooted hair btw)

personal pic of her headsculpt mounted on a phicen the time of a photoshoot...

Wow! That is sooooooo bad! The promo pics looked good so I was interested but she doesn't fit into my male/female warrior collection so I did not buy her.

Three Zero should be ashamed of themselves for producing something so completely different from what they advertised.

The usual disclaimer that the actual product may differ from the images should not be used to protect fraudsters!

I thought this was a KO when I first saw it as I hadn't seen any ThreeZero logos anywhere. Then I saw a pic of the back of the box. Oh boy! They've gone to the same factory as VTS and Star Ace!

CHEERS!

This girl is causing quite a stir and rightly so.
I recall being critical with their previous figure and got even more put off by some of the replies. There was one person in particular that really grinded my gears every time something negative was mentioned about 3zero but oh well it is what it is.

Those are very poor pictures.  

I was delighted with the Nora sculpt that came with my fallout armor set from threezero, so I shall keep my order in and wait and see for some more pictures

Heres another, which shows some eye detailing and the work on the brows.  It might still be ok.

And in case it isn't, I have a custom one made using the Gac head...

Regardless of how this turned out, I'll be keeping my PO with Timewalker. I'm not comfortable with screwing over good retailers, as they are very few and far between in this tiny hobby of ours. I canceled my PO for Jack Burton with Sideshow, however (even though I'll lose my NRD, I don't mind screwing over a company that charges more than HT and produces product almost as bad as Star Ace).

If I didn't know any better, you're defending the figure and quite frankly that is BULL$%^# coming from a collector like you short of having an absolute affinity for the character regardless of likeness ad quality faults.

The in hand pictures thus far clearly shows issues, but I find you're wait for more in hand pictures, etc. reasons to be . . . odd.

I've been informed more in hand pictures are pending, but from initial assessments . . . it's not pleasant.




Im just living in hope, thats all, and trying not to fall down the hole we fell down constantly defending Triad. I loved this proto quite a bit, especially after Hot toys failed attempts to capture the woman properly.  

Damn.  I am defending it.  I've become the  Threezero cheerleader, and I truly hate company cheerleaders.  

I'll go hang my head in shame now.

At least you acknowledged it. That is the first step. A step many others can't admit.

I'm thinking about using this head sculpt, to replace this one, after I give her a haircut.

This.

Threezero is incapable of doing human characters, whatsoever. Their flesh paint utterly stinks. But even if the paint was up to snuff, the sculpt doesn't look good at all either.

The likeness may still be there and it does offer being a bald sculpt which would open her up to custom rooters and painters. When they've done their part we may yet see something. Not suggesting anyone gets the complete figure, but, the head loose could possibly be handy for some.

I still would have been narked if I'd PO'ed this based on the promos though.

CHEERS!

Yep. That's me. I'm "narked." I thought the proto looked pretty good. But so far, it's not looking promising. But then, I have yet to see any early photos that DO look good. I swear, these early pics are made by someone who works for HT just so people stop ordering from other manufacturers. Wink
