Thanks for the pictures, Browncoat!  I must say that while the statue, by itself, is very nicely done but there is absolutely no likeness to the gorgeous Inara.  I don't know how it got approved but I do hope Morena Baccarin would be more picky with the next Inara statue/bust/figure.  |

She does look a good statue and captures the dramatic scene perfectly. However, I would have to agree with Lior that unfortunately she doesn't look like Morena at all. It's a shame because she's a stunning beauty and this could easily have been an incredible statuette as opposed to just a decent one had they captured her looks right.
Thanks for the pics!

thanks for pics!
I hate to moan about lack of firefly merchandise and when it does come moan about it as well but sorry...wtf!
Compared to river she is beyond shite. River had some likeness and an intense looking base. to me this is completely boring with quite frankly one of the worst likenesses i have ever seen. She kinda looks like the series one charmed figure of paige in the face.
I hope some of our brilliant customizers can alter her in some way to prove me wrong that underneath that crap paintjob a good sculpt lies...

It's hard to find a good angle to display her. It keeps blocking her face (then again, maybe that's a good thing ). |

I thought the perfect statue for inara would be her standing outside the geisha place in that red dress she wears when the assasin guy walks up the stairs. I dont mean he should be part of the statue, but an elegant upright posture with her in that red robe with a base full of greenery and flowers would have been much more appealing. I think if they make a zoe though she wont be as bad. She has very prominent features such as her large lips etc whereas inara is just a very attractive woman which can be hard to sculpt and get it exact without it looking like a generic attractive female sculpt...am I making sense? Overall Im saying if we do get zoe I think she'll be better than this inara and an action pose along these lines would actually suit her character. |

Stakey, not sure if you know this but they are doing a Zoe and she isn't much better:  |

I would love to get River to have as my terminator Cameron figure but I am hoping for T:TSCC figures soon.

Same here, and I haven't seen any word from Neca saying they'll make any. (Neca make a T-800 awhile ago so I thought that maybe they'd make the Sarah Connor Chronicles figures).
