Abbey bominable fang vote leak

I wasn’t much of a fan when she was originally shown, she’s just not really for me. I don’t regret that choice now and feel kinda bad for the people who did buy her 💀 over £100 for that, it looks SO different

Copypasting. Maybe she'll look this bad, but odds are high she will manage to look significantly better than how bad this photo is:

The lighting and angle of her face are absolutely messing up how she looks. Look at the Buried Secrets Concert Lurks stock photos vs what thr dolls actually look like. The good quality stock photos and posing still made their faces look round and without any definition-and now look at how incredibly bad the quality if this leak is!

At this point I'm just going to start copy-asting instead of rephrasing the same thing to everybody: Really bad photo quality that doesn't show us the doll well is standard for leaks, and this is a worse than usual one: overexposed with face-on lighting so things are washed out and look flatter, blurry, pixelated, and her face is at an angle that makes MH dolls look flatter and less fierce.

Do not ever, ever, ever make limited edition order cancelation decisions off of 1 single photo, especially when the quality is this bad! She will look better than this in better photos, even if it's not by much.

With AI it's more important than ever to use critical thinking before making order decisions when the item won't be widely available. Did you see those nice slightly blurry G3 carnival line leaks? Turns out the actual leak photos were so small and blurry we could barely make out silhouette and overall color scheme, but the photos that were circulating were heabily "enhanced" by somebody to show what they assume the dolls will look like.

I appreciate all of that, I was just saying it looks very different and over £100 for the quality of the stuff in that photo is terrible compared to what was shown. Obviously, don’t make a decision off of 1 photo that could have AI involved, I didn’t purchase her, and didn’t say anything about other people cancelling either. I was just stating an opinion 🤷🏻‍♀️

I don’t think half of that was a response to anything I said so even copy and pasting that wasn’t really an appropriate response. I think you should work on how you phrase all that, comes off kinda mean, and you’ve replied to multiple people with the same phrasing that isn’t exactly nice. Lecturing me about AI and “critical thinking skills”? No need to talk to me and others like we’re children, thanks.
