>>5785958It actually IS that bad, at least in my book. I had more than enough money to afford this, but couldn't justify it due to the fact that it looks like absolute shit.
- Clothes fit very poorly, it looks more like a college kid's shitty Jacket cosplay assembled at Goodwill
- Poor selection of fabric, leading to hyper-oversized grain on jeans. Companies like ThreeA learned to circumvent this look with better materials.
- Shitty weapons. The sword was bending even in the promo images, the shotgun looks cheap and lacking in detail, and the bat looks straight-up bizarre--why does it get all thin by the grip?
- Cheap, shitty base body with ugly hands
- Lazy, sloppy sculpting--the masks are such an iconic part of Hotline, and these look mushy and decidedly amateurish. I don't really like Erick Scarecrow's sculpts in general, but he really shit the bed here.
I figured I'd need to replace the body with a Hot Toys TT (another $50-ish) and even then, the head and clothes and weapons still looked like shit, so that basically left me with nothing. Highly disappointing. I would have paid even more than they asked if they'd pulled it off well, but for this piece of shit? Nah.
Not OP btw, just a random passerby who hated the fuck out of this toy.
