I would agree that this is overpriced. The LC version has a darker skin tone and overall better, more robust, figure. Of course there's the argument that a redhead would be fair-skinned anyway (I seem to remember her fair skin fulfilled a prophecy?). I think where both these figures miss the mark a bit (for me), along with the excessive price point, is the face: they have nice face sculpts but neither captures the deep "eyeliner" look that Frank Thorne drew her with. Yes, she has other distinguishing features and yes, other artists have drawn her, but come on.....Red Sonja is practically synonymous with Thorne.

there's some interesting things done here , accesories and armor wise, pretty close to what they showed, here's hoping to see other folks get this in-hand and put videos up, I wonder if this is an early batch version given how easy the arms pop off/ hopefully not a common thing.
Nice looking figure $50 seems a little steep though.
