    Does Starfire Really suck this badly?

    I'm looking to pick up a loose Starfire made from FTC. Or at least I was?
    I looked on ebay last night to see if I could pick one up.
    And then I saw these pictures.....

    What is with her head? it looks flat and off kilter at the same time, like the whole expression is turned -30 degrees off center?
    or that just these pics? Can someone confirm who has her is she really this bad?

      I thought both raven and starfire were fine for what they were.

          The face definitely looks off kilter to me, but it might be less noticeable in person. I've found that heads that seem crazy crooked to me in photos seem to be less noticeable when viewed in 3D.
          Expectation is the death of discovery.

              I bought both her and Raven. HORRIBLE head sculpts. If you are not dead set on having her, like "must have", then skip her. The head sculpt is off kilter with crooked eyes, a flat head and she just looks angry. NOTHING like the source material at all.

                The one I bought has been packed away and will most likely never be seen again until I decide to customize her with a better head sculpt or just get rid of her and Raven.

                Three words. Angry. Drag. Queens.

                  WOW!
                  thanks lilbrosj66...I could not believe from these pictures just how bad she is.
                  It will be a definite pass unless I find one less than $10 to re-customize.
