I'm expecting the colors to still look off in every photo people post. It's only once it's in hand that I think we'll be able to judge properly.

Michael Crawford already had it in hand for a review. It did not look better.

I believe in honoring a Pre-order, but I just can’t bring myself to pay Exo-6 for this Kira. I just don't believe they succeeded on capturing Kira/Visitor.

Could it be improved? Yeah, probably. It is none the less quite good IMO, and not Playmates by any stretch.Looks like the Playmates version
And I don't think we'll be getting another Kira figure (unless there's a mirror universe version)
Actually looking at the closeups I'm liking it more. It's not perfect. Like many I think the expression could have been a bit better (more wide-eyed) but I think looking at this it looks like her, maybe with a bit less makeup on 
.
The hair isn't quite red enough. The uniform is too bright (this is screaming to be displayed in unique DS9 lighting). But I do still like what I'm seeing, it's better than the Voyager figures (they seem to be getting better!), and it's the best Kira figure by far. Saying it looks like Playmates is just disingenuous...

(didn't know of these reviews until now! Good photos in there, am I allowed to post this?)
I'd still say it's 4/5 stars. I'm probably going to be buying it Immediate Purchase from Exo-6.

Still no in hand pics huh? Mine should arrive tomorrow but thought for sure I'd see some others before then.

That’s what I thought too! And none on the EXO-6 Star Trek Collector’s FB page either. I realize all of the day one paid invoice shipments went out on the same day, but I was sure some of our European friends would have a couple in hand by now.

European (UK) resident here. I paid my invoice on the first day and I'm still waiting. And to top it off, tracking isn't even showing.

Duuude! My Kira just updated to Out for Delivery Today!
Congratulations. Can’t wait to see your pictures and hear your thoughts.
Mine is hovering in New Jersey and I expect Kira to find her way south next week.

Just got mine today! Very quick turnaround on this one. I like the sculpt in hand more than the pics posted here earlier but she could look a little younger in the under eye area. Other than that, I like the release overall. Outfit looks better and the body is great. No complaints there…

Ok! I think it works! Sure, she has some of the drawbacks we were cautiously expecting like the bright-a$$ uniform, but we may be able to customize that some. Your second to last shot of the headsculpt is my favorite! As expected, with some proper lighting and choice of angle, I think she easily beats those dark promo photos we had to endure, and taking her out of the shadows is a vast improvement on both EXO's official pics and Michael Crawford's as well.
Can't wait to see what I can do with her! You know, in photos......

In some of those shots, Kira looks OK. In others, she looks either cross-eyed, or her face is melting.

Outfit still looks pretty darn pink to me. Sculpt is also kind of weird looking to me.

Unpopular opinion…. I think she looks great! She’s going to look TREMENDOUS posed with the rest of the crew. A little too pink, but it’s not jarring in less severe lighting.
