How is it so bad? It looks like a 3D representation of the anime charicter to me, she isn't in a silly pose and appears to have good paint applications. Or maybe it's the automatic Toynami = BAD philosophy?
It's the face... the face is awful.
Personally, for me, the face is the most important part of the statue/figure/item. If it's not right, or looks close, then it's junk. I refuse to buy it.
As a result, I own no Leia figures from the new PotF Star Wars line. Not a one....
