I'm not planning to use the Omega Cannon much so that's okay, but the panel lining - on the body it looks decent without paint IMO, but the hand lacking black segments still irks me. They really should've painted that part.

Funny how this is your first figma, it could be my last. They've become crazy expensive and I don't really see the product quality matching that increase.

But Samus I need, love Metroid Dread, so I'm glad to hear all the good things you have to say about this figure

That's very valid! Collecting is an expensive hobby so you gotta know when you're out so I respect it. Metroid is such an important franchise to me that I really couldn't pass this up. I'm taking some paint pens to the hands to fix that up, and I'd like to find a good match for the lights' green to add the missing foot lights.

Got Samus today. Thankfully, she's fantastic. Considering the masterpiece that is Metroid Dread, everything else would've been a disappointment. There are some really awesome things happening on this figure - the shoulder articulation is mindblowing. I love it. The outward movement is astonishingly fluid and easy. And the collapsing back panels of the knees are so cool, they work so well. Ankle tilt is the only thing that is limited, but understandable given the design.

Yeah this one's a winner, and she goes on the shelf right next to her soulmate.

I missed out on the initial pre-orders, and you guys are making me very excited for whenever my order of the second run is gonna arrive! Can't wait to put her next to Doomguy and Master Chief.

Panel lined Samus.

I definitely gotta do that to mine now. Thanks!

Hope your copy holds up, but I haven't heard anything bad so far.

That looks really good! But I would be terrified to do that with such an expensive toy.

More pics of Dread Samus. In the time since, I've added some black to her hands (a bit rough, but it'll do!) as well as added the green lights on the bottom of her soles (not visible here, but trust me!)

Down the line I'd like to try my hand at sculpting/painting custom hands for her!

For those who missed it the first time around, the figma Doom Slayer is getting reissued.

I literally just sold mine two days before this was announced. Good timing on my part.
