ebtorres Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I think the pose they chose makes it look that way. Still an awesome piece, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnthaiHERO Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I'm not a Red Sonja fan, but it is easily the best statue of SDCC. Runnet up is the MOTU. Unfortunately both I don't collect. The wolverine looks much better too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F For Fake Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 So SST is making another Red Sonja even though they just released an amazing PF last year and it's still in stock? Looks like a beautiful piece, but I wouldn't have thought there was that much demand for the character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark 1 Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 anybody here collect Bowen Designs statues? Personally I think Bowens are the best I have several Bowens. They are cool. I prefer the Sideshow Premium series if I had to compare but Bowen was nice. Aren't they done now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombat Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 ECC and Hollywood collectibles have some nice ones as well. I'm on my tablet so hard to post pics. Really cool alien and medusa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think all of them. Right, that's what I read as well. Even with that issue, heck maybe even BECAUSE of that issue, I'm really surprised that they're returning to that well so soon. At any rate, these all look amazing, but it's SDCC, so of course they do. What comes out of the factory may be another issue entirely. Unless it's an exclusive I just have to have (which isn't often anymore) I pretty much take a wait and see approach on SST's PF's anymore. (Except for the Daredevil which I went ahead and ordered blind, for which I'm being rewarded with multiple delays. Gotta love Sideshow!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Except for the Daredevil which I went ahead and ordered blind, for which I'm being rewarded with multiple delays. Gotta love Sideshow!) The main problem isn't that the piece is bad as-is, just that it differs from the proto significantly in terms of how her skin was colored. Lots of of people still like it, and it was a good seller for Sideshow. The reason the issue was blown up was because, like this Red Sonja, the last one was the star of SDCC 2013 and the hype/expectations were sky high. Take all that out of the equation, and the piece as-is is still a very nice premium format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
