Thanks for the pictures, though you could probably edit your other thread instead of opening another one. Anyway, I think she looks great. I'm really not keen on her face close-up (because of those bloody eyebrows SS didn't fix) but overall very impressed and can hardly wait for my Buffy. Are there any noticeable flows we should know about?

She is just different, I could not say better/nor worse. At first she looked - just not right (but, after looking at her for a while, she is actually not bad). I still prefer the original more. I am happy to have her and would not send her back - no lazy eye either. ;-)

I really just love the original. The alternate is good, the pants look really nice. You really have to see them both side by side in person. ;-) Don't get me wrong, she is great. Honestly, they should have used something different for the shirt. I will try to take more pics.

I am thinking about removing the pics. Wow, I cannot believe how many people are quick to trash her (it may simply be my pics) - not referring to this board at all. The tough part about sideshow items, is many times they do not take good pics, and I would hate for someone not to buy her based on my pics, and later someone takes great pics of her and that person lost the chance to get her, etc. You really have to see her in person to make up your mind. ;-)
P.S. the hairline is off a bit, but I think the pics might exaggerate it some, don't get me wrong - she does have a large forehead.

I am guessing that I am one of the people "trashing" the figure over at the Freaks board... As Lior Knight stated, the hairline is off. That much is fact. I came to the same conclusion without reading Lior's comments first. It is my OPINION that this flaw is entirely unacceptable. My figure is arriving on Saturday, and I will wait until then to decide whether or not to keep the figure. But I seriously doubt that this flaw is limited to the figure that you received. And if my figure looks like yours, then I'm sending it back without hesitation. There's no way that I am spending $268 shipped for a statue with a defect that I consider major.

no, mikey, u have to understand people are giving their opinions, its not YOUR pics particularly, i still see that it does look as good as the proto. don remove the pics, if people on the board are true fans or collectors or simply have the spare cash, they will get it, jus that they are still entitled to their own opinions

Wait, do not get me wrong. It actually has nothing to do with the piece - just the pics. Please, please - do not base a firm opinion on my pics - you may love her/you may hate her? I will again state - the hairline is off.
BillyBudd - I am not attacking you in any way, nor would I.
My honest opinion on the piece:
She is nice, not as good as the original, more work needed to be done with her - such as, change the shirt, etc.

I'm not trying to upset anyone. If you can overlook the hairpiece flaw, that's great. All that matters is that you are happy with the piece. But I am quite certain that this flaw is going to bother me. And I can't justify spending this kind of money on a piece that has what I consider a major flaw, so my figure will probably be returned to Sideshow. In my opinion, Buffy deserves better.

BillyBudd, you are not upsetting me in any way. I have no issues at all with what you are stating, you might change your mind when you get her, you might not. My whole point was just do not base too much of an opinion on my pics, wait until you get her. I would be happy to hear your review when you receive her.
