This looks good. But 1. I’ve been burned by these guys before from proto to production. 2. Both Kit and Giantoy are listing this at $299…?!

What? That price is insanity for swtoys lol.

Too expensive, plus the head doesn't even look like the character. They based the look on her Resident Evil 3 Remake face, but they put her in her Resident Evil 1 costume, and the face doesn't even look right. Also based on the accessories and costume, nothing warrants $300 for all of that. They're pricing her at the official Resident Evil Damtoys brand level and they're just a third party company.

The last Jill toy they made, based on her Resident Evil Death Island movie appearance, was horrible. It has a super tiny head with a massive breasts (that are not part of her original design) and weird body shape.

I hope Master Team would make a new Jill. From what I've seen, Master Team makes really great Resident Evil characters, while Damtoys have been stalled for a long time.

they are some REAL PIPE CLEANER arms hahahaha

This looks like the same lanky body as their Scarlet Witch release

Looks good, except the hat / beret, which looks on the large side, and sitting too high on the head.
Maybe the fabric non plastic beret would be the way to go.

Yeah, the price is very high. But otherwise I kinda like this, especially the head sculpt (I'm not burdened by knowing in what way it is off). Movable eyes and "real" hair are a pretty nice thing to have.

It is a very nice update of Jill in re1 outfit.. this version is re3 remake with classic re1 stars outfit..
The clothes and gear are quite nice, the hs is quite good if the release looks like that,

Unfortunately the proportion of Swtoys seems to be on the skinny jiaoudoll body.. based on previous Jill releases.
kitbashing outfit from Swtoys that are fitting is a challenge on other seamless body which are. Curvier than the jiaou body they use..

Hope superduck will make their version as well, since sd usually only sells the headsculpt, outfit n gear without body, and their outfit so far seem to cater to be fitted with tbleague body

The figurine is not a likeness, because the character takes hormones. It is obvious, his chest has increased considerably

I like the head sculpt a lot and the general attitude conveyed by the figure.  Those arms do look awfully skinny though, and the body looks slight as well.  It's been a while since I watched RE1 and RE3, so I can't pick out inaccuracies.  Those don't bother me, and there is a good selection of accessories with this one.  Oddly enough I passed on an earlier Jill character because it featured the 40mm grenade launcher.  I guess that's iconic with her figure.  

Since I don't have Jill in my collection yet, I would PO this one if not for the current price tag.  Maybe I'll find some of this set parted out and try a kit bash.
