Tough crowd, I think this looks killer. I’ll PO the whole line as soon as they put up a Drax.

Is this the first seamless female sculpt that Hot Toys has ever done? Also looks like they fixed the overly long torso and saggy left shoulder from the first Nebula figure.
 
Looks cool but not a *must* have of its own accord, if you already have the Endgame one. Although if they end up making a Drax or even a Gamora with sculpted hair (probably a longer shot), I'll have to get everything from this.
 
It looks good. I just think this is her most boring look in the MCU.
 
It's crazy how a bald blue cybernetic woman manages to be the sexiest character in the MCU.

You picked the wrong sister…and it’s not even close

Not to mention…

I think the main advantage of this figure is the looser clothes mean better articulation but otherwise doesn’t seem compelling. Those accessories seem nice but the stay on the box kind. And only two sets of hands? That’s pathetic. No regular blaster? The lack of separate rolling eyes is possibly because the female head is small plus bald but seems a bit strange given every other announcement recently had rolling eyes including Wasp and Padme.
 
I was expecting they'd do the swap-out arm accessories but wasn't expecting her cool jetpack. Facial expression feels pretty somber though which is an odd choice.

She's up at Sideshow for $285, $20 more than Star-Lord. I guess jetpacks are worth more than rolling eyes.

Well, they also couldn't reuse her mechanical arm due to the complete redesign, so that plus the swap out pieces no doubt factored into it as well. Star-Lord is a rather bare-bones release by comparison. That said they each should be $10-15 cheaper IMO, but it is what it is...
 
Especially since this particular head has lines all over it to help hide a 'hatch' to the eyes.
But her eyes are almost entirely black. They probably didn’t think there would be much gained in pose-able black eyes. Probably goes the same for Mantis. They’ll more or less look the same with very minimal to be gained from eyes looking in a different direction.

I guess that's true.

Bald shouldn't be an excuse when the head and neck are separate like here. You can access the eyes from below in the neck opening like the Darth Maul and the TDK Batman headsculpts.
 
I’m pretty sure the head and neck are one piece though.

I thought so too but it appears to be just a low cut at the joint for the opening.

You can see it here that it’s still a separate head and neck piece just like the previous Nebula figure. They just try to hide it in the photos. You can also tell by the way the head tilts at the top of the neck rather than the base of the neck in a lot of the pics
