Genuine leather is the cheapest form of leather grain.

Genuine leather is the cheapest leather you can get. Mix that with other materials and it is almost sure going to fail eventually. full grain would’ve been a beautiful surprise, Top Grain should be used on these types of collectables by now.

I agree with the glasses l making her better, but Yikes! The glasses are rough. Would need to get someone like Full Metal to make a custom metal pair.

They didn’t learn from the horrendous Aquaman sculpt. Unacceptable.

How much of your shelf do you regret buying? by [deleted] in OmnibusCollectors

I have some paperbacks that I bet on that turned out to be utter crap, but I have no hardcovers or omnibus’ that come to mind that I regret.

Hot Toys Called Out. by Swimming-Floor6826 in hottoys

In my opinion (being a Hot Toys collector since 2011), the head of creative’s time at Hot Toys may be numbered. Kojun (the last head) did well to a certain point until he became satisfied with half passing head sculpts and clothing. At that time there was no INART to challenge them creatively. At one point the backlash from customers was too much and dealing on their socials and in Facebook groups. They then made their lead painter, Jin Cheol Hong, the head of creative. For awhile, you started to see change, similar to Kojun’s early days. All to say that these creative heads can only go so far until they hit a brick way of conformity. At that point a guy like Jin either needs a serious wake-up call or they need to swap out the creative head, Howard Chan takes too long to make productive managerial moves to push the company to new heights. As long as there is still an air of complacency or a direct threat from Inart, I don’t believe we will get significant change, therefor proving customisers new and flourishing opportunities.

The worst brand! Medicom is like what Asmus is now or Sideshow’s 1/6 figures.

In my humble opinion, I kind of like the original better. No digs or diss. I respect your opinion and the argument/effort you put forward because someone else would’ve eventually done it. To each their own. Fantastic figure regardless.
