where does Bandai get off thinking a figure of this quality level is worth two hundred dollars?

I really wish someone else would get the license to make SM figures...

What's up with her left shin? It's not even that bent in the original picture. ugh?

Hmm... I wonder why all three images are from the exact same angle? Maybe they'll post some more later that show it straight-on or let you actually see Tux's face. I rather like that particular manga image, but would like to see a few more angles before investing that much in a figure.

You're right, it's not the same, but it's messed up in the original image, too. The angle of the foot is wrong for the shin. She has a lot of little problems with perspective in her artwork, but man, could they have been a little less faithful and fixed that crap?

As much as I love Sailor Moon, I don't love the franchise enough to pay $200 for a figure when I could spend that kind of money on more manga and anime.
