Beautiful figure and photography! Not sure about the hat though, can't wait for Black Beard!

I love it! Your awesome photography skills show how magnificent the figure is in its detailing and craftsmanship. Unfortunately it also shows how far off the likeness is to Penelope Cruz. Great figure nonetheless.

I especially love the ones with the two of them together. Great work Luka!

I showed my wife the close up shots of just the face (I knew if she saw the full figure she would know) and asked her to guess who this was....by the way my wife is probably one of the world's biggest fan of Pirates of the Caribbean but it took her a while to guess it was Penelope Cruz.....the likeness is definitely off....but having said that I still want the head sculpt I love the way it was painted. the freckles and the texture is superb....as well as the photography....thanks for the review as always I enjoy your work.

Great photoshoot! The way her eyes are painted looks like she's been smoking something

Great photography skills bro. I have to wonder why HT made the hair look like straw?

Thanks for the photos but I think the pics actually hurt this figure. It looks like the eyes are really red, which is how Gordon's looked in Luka's photo review of that figure, but I thought if I were chasing the Joker all over the city my eyes would be red too.

The black backdrop with bright lighting really makes the hair look like a mess. It looked like Hot Toys has a mixture of red and brown, so that could also be the cause of the 'straw' look.

I think it resembles Penelope Cruz, but like Babydoll, isn't spot-on, however I do like the figure. For $150 this would acceptable. Even adjusting for Hot Toys inflation, maybe even $175.

They cheaped out on the hat! After all the other details in the clothing that look so great!

It's a great figure, but why save such a good job for an exclusive!? If she'd been a regular release it would have been much better.

I don't mind the hair, I doubt they had L'Oreal in those days!

CHEERS!

im having a hard time with the use of ric rac on the corsette, Hot Toys is notorious for their great attention to detail, yet they use ric rac?

Its a nice figure - since it does NOT look like ms (mrs?) Cruz, I think a buy of the body and HS is in order. That said, I have never seen a figure in 1/6 with so many blackheads (google if you dare)...

In other words: Its a very nice paint job.
