Canceled mine as well. Can't believe how horrible the production sample looks. I never expect final figures to look as good as renders, but this looks like a cheap knock off.

I cancelled mine as well. You almost have to at this point and wait it out to see how the in-hand pics look.

It's still surprising to me Boss Fight released those photos.

Same here, I'd like a Sonja but I'm not locking myself in without knowing for sure what we're getting. The heads in those shots were abominable. If it turns out the final release matches the original promo pics, I'll be happy to reconsider.

Yea its that bad. If it stays that bad I'll just repaint it and see how it looks after that. I still like the body despite the faces, but it is definitely too dark skin tone wise. I saw pics of the black, white and red one in the case for SDCC, and the paint job on that face was alot better then those pics for the normal one, so I have no idea what's going on anymore. But I am also sadly debating on canceling my preorder too now since I've had a while to think about it. I just don't wanna cancel, it turn out good, and then not be able to get her.

Well... the sculpt is there. The paint is absolute trash. And the body looks different then what they showed previously. Her diaphragm joint looks a little lower and more noticeable. Her neck looks... a little off, maybe too long? And her skin tone is too dark. I don't know many red heads that can tan like the figure did between early shots and now. Most of them just burn lol. But yea, she looks like she got a spray tan and had a 5 year old do her makup. Oh, and the chain mail is like a very shiny silver now, before it was more muted. I don't mind that part so much. But it is definitely noticeable.

There's a newer promo pic of both the colour and mono versions doing the rounds and they look better than the previous horror show but still not up to the level of the original renders. Not going to re-order until I see her in folks hands.

That's a shame, but I guess not surprising. Those renders looked amazing to the point where this figure was on my radar even though I could not care less about the property. Not surprising, but still disappointing, they couldn't meet that level of quality.

Package shots mean she's probably gonna be within in a couple months I would think. But I don't know how Boss Fight works, they could be different.
