To upgrade PCR, or not to upgrade PCR.....

[jhfagan]

A common question I'm sure, but I find myself sometimes toying with the idea of whether or not to work the additional cosmetic/paint details that are missing from some of my PCR EFX pieces, namely the Fett ,and the Ep4 Vader.
I mean, I shouldn't HAVE to, even with the PCR, I know it's not going to be fiberglass, and fully lined, and have every little wonky nuance in the shell, but for that money, I should still get the complete paint job, right?
How hard would it have been to include the C scar and brush stroked gunmetal areas on the PCR Vader, or add the small and also EASILY done thumb print smudge, the tape line, or the little silver scratches on the forehead of the Fett??? Right?

These pieces are ment to stay on a budget. But efx did release a SE PCR Vader with brushed on paint.

The idealized is for the masses who donr know any better or prefer that.

Lucas is know to make companies idolize their products.

If you want a true replica there are talented artists to make that dream a reality.

I cant speak to what the reasoning was to omit them, but the prototype I painted had those details there. If you can add them, and it'll make you happy. Add them.

I remember that conversation. I am tempted.
But, I know it sounds "collector"ish of me, but if time ever came I needed to sell one, and I modded it, how bad would it lessen its value from original?
