>>6123517The one on the left is what was in the package, the one on the right is what NECA sent me.
This was around 3 years ago. I had gotten acquainted with Leonardo Saraceni, and we had been emailing back and forth about Valve properties. He did me a personal favor and sent me the upper torso of the figure on the right, straight off a workbench. I never posted about it because I didn't want people thinking they could just email NECA and demand free figures.
It might not come out as well in the photo as it does in hand, but everything about it is much nicer, from the mold to the paint, with no seam lines or anything. it's not perfect, but I never saw a single figure in the stores that looked even close to that good.
