"Crummy looking seams? Leave it be, the fans'll still eat it up. Missed paint? Hey, that stuff's expensive! Just let it go. C'mon, we gotta save some money here! I have to take the wife to Rio next month! *Chomps cigar*" The fact that the box is so generic that it looks as though it was taken directly from the set of "Repo Man" only goes to support this theory. I have the Maria figure as well, and while it's certainly nothing spectacular (and her top and bottom halves don't quite fit all the way together, rassinfrackin' castoffable skirt...), it at least looks like they took some time to finish it, so long as you don't look too closely at her waistline. I probably would've canceled this back then if I weren't one of those unfortunate souls blinded by the "ZOMG Hinagiku!!!!!!11one" factor. At least now I can say that I've contributed to the Taki cigar fund.
