P1 said the Dog shown at the event is the 1st prototype so don't be afraid guys

I stand corrected. I was merely pointing out we shouldn't jump to conclusions based on one poor photo.

They're all poor photos, I was a little underwhelmed when I saw them yesterday, Hearing that this is the very same prototype that we have seen looking glorious on many occasions has put my mind at rest. The power of good lighting and camera skills hey. The flexible tail is a nice surprise also, it wasn't even hinted at until now.

Gotta be honest... these new pics are starting to aggravate me. Looks quite a bit different that the earlier pics we had. I used $650 in points on this so if I end up canceling of sending it back I’m going to be furious.

Yeah, I dont like the colors on it now. Is the camera and lighting doing that?

Have flexible parts been seen on any other statues? Given how expensive this is I'd be worried about the fragility of that.

Wonder how that flexibility thing will work. Will it still be heavy? If so, wouldn't it sag?

 

[clutch]

Is it gonna be like the NECA bendy tail figures?

 

[Python]

I'm assuming it'll be flexible for safety reasons, we've already seen the prototype tail broken. I assume it'll be designed to be posed and left alone rather than played with constantly. Maybe something like the whip on the Wolf Predator LSF.

I’m guessing it’ll just be a material that’s strong enough to hold its position but flexible enough to take a knock

Argh. Fixed tail plz or we'll see lots of battle damaged Dog Alien with broken tail in next 2 or 3 years or even sooner.

Was looking at this a little closer in some videos that were posted and I’m pretty sure this guys legs are going to be separate pieces along with the head and tail.

Just because of the way I saw in some photos, his or her hands were lifted up like something was out of position and Im now seeing seems behind the front shoulders and near the rear end.

Not saying it’s a bad thing. I’m just putting it out there.

The tail and heads will most definitely be separate pieces. I don't see any reason for anything else to be separate.

The the legs seem pretty thin and fragile. I bet they did for shipping. Unsure as to why they needed to do it for support reasons?

I would think they would need the legs to be part of the body to assure it is supported properly. If walk by and brush against it, breakage..

But then again they have done the in legs separate pieces with the transformers pieces.

Here’s a few shots of what I’m talking about. Look at the Bust where the shoulder meets the arm area and then look at the statue. There’s an obvious seam on the statue where there isn’t one on the Bust

Here’s one for scale. It’s huge! Definitely keeping my order if comes out looking this good.

Notice how the hands are sitting back having the fingers not touching the base as it is in most other pics.

Back feet are all the way down, so how do you explain the front hands are elevated back like that, unless the arms are separate from the body and they didn’t fit her together properly.

Here’s another one of the rear end seams. Look closely where the legs join near the tail.

They would need to change the separation points on the heads/busts to match the arms, if they are separate pieces.
