Very disappointed how long that cape is. Looks huge.

I don’t mind the sculpt at all but yeah the cape is a bummer. I thought that was the first thing they fixed. Weird decision there.
 
At this point, I'm trying to convince myself I'm not crazy (by collector standards I mean)

It's his cheeks mainly. It's a very subtle difference at a glance. But it really changes how the face registers in my eyes.

I know, his mouth is slightly open. lens distortion and such.. there's no such thing as a perfect comparison, but I've looked at countless references and it's all I can see. It's like, his face just needs to taper, and I don't see it in the sculpt.

You're 100% on the money - it changes the shape of the overall look.

Personally, the more photos I see, the more I think the "skull" effect of the cowl (and I could even go so far as to say the whole cowl) looks oddly shaped and wrong :( It's like his lower face is exploding out of the cowl - not sitting in it.

Glad I'm not crazy... ish

To your last point, bear in mind that some of these pictures don't have the mouthplate fully inserted, making it look a lot worse.

This is gonna vary way too much depending on the reference that you use. Too many factors that goes into this that can have it looking even slightly off. Camera focal length, angle of his face and the angle in which the camera itself is in. Is it angled from down under? Slightly up top with his face tilted slightly one way? What focal length is the camera lens in this one shot using compared to another? Since that can cause the face to look flatter than others. Is Pattinson clenching his jaw? Is he frowning? Is he relaxing his face in one shot but not the other?

Personally wouldn't get too hung up on it since it falls into a margin of error that is to be expected in this hobby but that's just me. Hard to look past stuff that your mind accepts is how it really should be. Even if they scanned his face to be 1/1, you can find a shot that would have it looking off because of the factors I listed above.

Funny enough, this shot below I'm using even shows how spot on the neck collar and neck piece itself is. It's a near 1/1 match but then like I said, you can probably find another shot that has even those pieces looking completely off. You just have to draw the line somewhere.
