And the gap between the pelvis piece and the legs is just plain ugly.

Rashid is okay I guess, but I don’t care about that character, and they also gave him a really creepy rape face here.
Looks at this face. Looks at PCS 1/4 Cammy statue's face. Looks at this face. Looks at PAK Cammy's face. Looks at this face. Looks at RAH Cammy's face. Looks at this face. LOOKS AT LITERALLY ANY OF THE FACES FROM ALL THE CAMMY FIGURES WE'VE HAD OVER THE YEARS.

Wtf Bandai. WTF.

It's not like they can't sculpt faces. They literally have the in-game models to work off of. And Rashid and Ryu's faces turn out pretty accurate.

Do they just have a mandate placed on them by marketing that says "make the women's faces flat, 2D, generic anime faces! People won't buy them if they're not 'cute'"?

Edit: Same deal with Revoltech Spider-Gwen. The unmasked face looks 1) anime and 2) too small for the body. And it turns out they literally got a different sculptor to do the unmasked face, because.... Yamaguchi Katsuhisa isn't a good enough sculptor? Were they afraid he was going to make the Gwen face too... oh, I don't know... American? They had to hire an anime-face-specialist sculptor, who probably had poor communication with Yamaguchi, to do the face, and end up with one that's too small? Just wtf, Japan....
