Hot Toys Crow fig looks better and that fig is years old. Seriously SS try a bit harder or just give up.

Wont stop them charging HT prices for it either.

While the HT sculpt looks better, I think SS chose the right expression, unlike HT giving him a smile.
The chin on that SS head looks too small and pointy.

Found a new pic. Looks good to me.
You know in the HT thread I said someone else needs to make an updated 1/6 Crow figure, I wasn't talking about you sideshow. It doesn't look bad in that pic, but I would be worried about production.
I agree with the clown, I like the expression on the SS one better.

- Better facial expression
- Better hair
- Better body
- Far better tailoring on the pants, thank goodness
- Hands are immaculately sculpted, if only they had HT paint apps to really make them sing
Shirt is underwhelming, but if it'll be covered by the trench coat (which I hope to be an improvement over HT's), this will be the Eric to own.
Was never impressed with the HT release, personally. I was thrilled when they announced it, but the final product felt so half-assed compared to their other figures at the time that I sold it within a few days. While this Sideshow isn't an outright masterpiece, maybe it'll feel like the figure we should've gotten from HT back in the day. Guess that's as good as we can hope for.
The PF is still my favorite Crow piece to date, but the base ruins the elegant work they did on the rest of it.

He's got the face scar across the nose. I never understood why HT neglected the scar? I thought it was at the request of the Lee family, but this new figure had it.

And Brandon had a pointy chin so no biggie there. I'll be watching this closely.

well gotta say this is a surprise! Can't wait to see the full reveal. Sold my HT one a long, long time ago. Like many, I was disappointed with the end result. Hopefully it will come with the leather coat. Was it said during the stream if it will or not?
Sideshow leather/pleather, tends to last longer than HT so at least there's that.

They said accessories are still being worked out. I skimmed over the whole thing when it was over, saw the PF then it panned over to this.
I was pleasantly surprised.

Minimal accessories, plain black hexagon base covered in scratches and greasy finger prints.

Yea, it seems unless a figure is considered a “deluxe” like ROTJ Luke and Gambit, then it will more than likely come with very few accessories. Shame that they are also too cheap to put a graphic on the display stands anymore.
