Updated my FF7 display recently and thought I'd share. Hoping to add a 3rd shelf for part 3

Posting this so hopefully others will make a more informed decision than I did. After initially getting the recast to save money, I ultimately felt it was worth it to spend the extra for the following reasons:

1. The eyebrow colors don't fit the lines. You can see this mostly where they start and end.

2. Visible edges on decals. This is particularly noticeable on the scratches where it's all shiny.

3. The faceplates came flattened. I had to bend them because they were initially too wide, and I damaged the ear on one of the faces. The damage is on me.. but the buyer will carry that risk.

4. The skin is too pink. This one bothers me the least, and it's not as visible in person, but I figured I'd mention it.

There's some difference in the hair color and softness, but i wouldn't necessarily say one is better than the other. Also the pupils on the AH seem more rounded while the recast is more flattened, but again I don't see one as "better."

With the price of the AH where it's at, it's nice having a budget option, and I still think the nono recast looks better than the other heads. Hopefully this makes it more clear with regards to what the extra cost of the AH comes with (as well as extra faceplates)
