LOADING: Image(s)Today Krysten Ritter / Jessica Jones 1/6 figure arrived from China
All in all i am happy with the figure but.. (more on that later)
I took some out of the box photo's outside in natural daylight, as it is a sunny day today.
Two of the photo's were shot inside the house as i was experimenting with light dark shadows on the portrait (the sunshine outside was used as the source of light)
The 1st photo shows the brown cardboard box the seller shipped in the figure in. This box was wrapped in bubble-wrap.
It is unusual seeing bubble-wrap on the outside of the box.
Inside the box, the figure was wrapped in bubble-wrap and a page from a Chinese news paper.
The portrait:
I like the portrait. The hair is very dark-brown. I was expecting black hair.
Skin tone looks good. Part of me expected the skin tone to be ligher/whiter.
The original proto image's show white below the iris. My figure features iris's that are full height of the white area of the eye.
Grey scarf:
Difficult to work will. I got there in the end.. sort of.
When the figure arrives, the scarf is simply wrapped from the rear of the neck, tucked into the jacket at the front. While this look neat, it is a different style compared to the proto images.
Grey vest:
The lower part of the grey vest that protrudes below the jacket likes to roll upwards. It is possible to roll it downwards. I sense the vest should have been slightly longer, baggy'er.
Black (pleather) jacket:
The jacket looks great. The sleeves should be slightly longer (or the arms on the figure shorter).
I get the impressive the jacket will probably fall apart over time, as it is very thin.
The zipper works fine. Using tweezers, i managed to zip the jacket up further than when it arrived.
Denim jeans / trousers / pants:
From a distance they work well. Up close, i am not 100% sold on the fabric used. I have seen better Demin at 1/6th scale.
The pockets on the rear should sit higher up Jessica Jones backside.
Where the zipper would normally be situated at the front, there is plastic Velcro strip which failed to hold the upper part of the Demin's together. I soon fixed the issue using Super-glue.
LOADING: Image(s)Black boots:
They do the job. The black material feels thin.
On one of the boots there was an eyelet missing and 2 eyelet's were coming out of the sockets.
I re_did the laces to make then look closer to reference images i had looked at of the TV series (the vertical gap between the laces from bottom to top should be the same, opposed to V shaped as the gap nears the top of the boot).
The square metal buckle should possibly sit more to the side of the boot. The boots could use some weathering.
The body:
It's ok. Not the best. It appears to be plastic with an upper area that makes use off silicone/rubber.
The upper part is not pose friendly, as it likes to spring back to it's original position.
The thighs (and backside) should possibly be thicker than they are.
The figure ships with 4 left hands and 4 right hands. No spare wrist pegs are included.
The hands look fine.
NOTE: I decided to add a pair of black gloved hands (not included) which i might upgrade to black fingerless gloves in the future, as Jessica Jones was known to wear black fingerless gloves.
Base:
The figure does not ship with a base.
