The artistry & talent that’s here on the RPF, never ceases to amaze me.
The eyelids look, even unpainted, perfect.

Our baby finally arrived tonight and I quickly surrounded him with all his favorite things I’ve made and acquired for him (thanks to Soulinertia for the frog idea)
This has been a long and at times frustrating wait, but I’m so glad I received one with the more subdued rosiness in the cheek areas.
I’m so happy with this piece, but I’m looking forward to modifying it to be more posable.

I went ahead and modded mine. I used armature wire for the arms and padded them with some foam and gaff tape. I used loc line for the head. It's just pressure fit in, I haven't decided if I want to glue it on or not.
It's really crazy how big a difference it makes being able to pose the arms. It's a fantastic figure, but I have no idea why the picked the pose they did. You could barely see the ball in his hand before.

Mine finally arrived today. Over a month after literally everybody else for whatever dumb, frustrating reason.
The rosy cheeks weren't that bad on mine. I used a baby wipe to remove some of the redness anyway. I didn't have to touch the eyelids or the nose.
Here's a side-by-side with Sideshow's other baby.
Edit: Updated picture with final display.

I haven’t even gotten a shipping notice yet.
Just got the notice that my February 1, 2020 preorder will be shipping early... December 18, 2020. We have different definitions of "early"... still I'm grateful it's finally on the way!!!

That is quite concerning in terms of longevity. I’ve heard a few times about ot Toys figures with seamless arms breaking down and cracking over time. I hope that whatever rubber they use here is built to last a little better.
One reason I don't buy toys like that. Don't want to spend a fortune on something that will break down in a few years.
Hottoys rubber work is notorious for falling apart. Their Batman figures from Batman Begins/The Dark Knight (the rubber suit before the upgrade) had such a bad reputation they reissued them with a different rubber formulation. When you pay that much for a figure it should last.
Exactly what I was going to mention. I LOVE the Dark Knight batman figures but have always held off because of their rubber suits. Sooo much money for something I'm only going to be pissed at after a while.

I made a completely new PVC & wire armature for the little one and was able to make him sit down to fit in one of my Detolf shelves.
Widened the collar a bit more in the second pic.
