This is the official word.

If you would like your Blue or Red Chun Li's face repainted to look more like the version shown at San Diego Comic Con last year then you need to send it to us.

We will offer this repainting service for free, but we cannot cover the shipping.

The reason is that the Chun Li you received is painted per Capcoms official specs and any changes we may make are considered customization and non-official.

We can donate our time to the custom repaint but we cannot incur the costs of shipping.

Also, because we will only be doing these repaints in batches once per month, it may take 4-6 weeks to complete.

See this link for more information:

The whole face. Like SDCC. Eyes, eyebrows, teeth, like we have seen with the black chuns.

Yes I have the same question. I live in Simi Valley (just over the hill from you).
It would be nice if I could just drive the statue to you and pick it up when it is done.

Also can you post some pics of how she will be repainted? Maybe some of the first ones that you do.

Great for you collectors in the states but the rest of the world it's not as good as it sounds with shipping and the TAX. But no blame lies at Jerry's feet but that factory in China.

It's a shame that Sideshow didn't send them all back to China for rectification.

:iagree:

You're absolutely right. Those of us outside of North America will have to pay a small fortune in shipping costs and (possibly) taxes. Although, as the statue is technically being "fixed", the customs forms should be labelled appropriately for return shipping once the statue's been repainted; there's no way anyone should have to pay import tax twice.

I totally applaud Jerry for offering the repainting service but I'm not sure it's worth all the extra expense for non-Amercians. Just comes down to how badly you want a "perfect" Chun Li statue, I suppose; it's not like anyone's being forced to get theirs tweaked.

For those who don't understand the business and keep on bashing on the China or oversea companies. This hobby would be way to expensive if the manufactures was done in the United States. Look around and see if there are any major collectible companies who don't do business with China. Example, ARH, PCS and Sideshow. The fact is they all do even the custom collectors are getting their pieces oversea. Got to give the oversea companies some respect. And of course, their will be some winners and looser in this hobby as any other.

Well that's a shame. They shouldn't stop until everyone who wanted a replacement was satisfied. And I didn't realize the replacement was crap as well. I just knew they were repainting them for free.

What a waste of everyone's time!

The USA workers demand much more money. So in china they are willing to work for 1.00 a day. This also means more profits for USA companies.

I'm saying that it will probably cost me over $100.00 to have this fixed for one let alone two statues. I appalud the idea of fixing the paint issues for free but if the shipping charges are inordinate, how is this a solution for someone in my position where money is very tight?

No.

Please refer to the initial post in this thread. We are not 'fixing' the statues. The statues were painted per Capcoms direction.

What we are offering is a different version that is closer to the SDCC version.

I do not agree that the "free" "repainted face" offer is a "great deal"...This is the face that collectors thought they'd get in the first place. Its anything but "free", as customers have to cover the back and forth shipping costs which can add up to well over 100$ for international customers (shipping + customs + freight, applicable taxes, etc...); only to get what they had already paid for and should've gotten in the first place

So your suggesting that a small business which is what this is, should just eat all the cost and go out of business? At least there is an offer on the table. Much like life you can't make everyone happy. The option is on the table it's just going to cost you money if you want to take that option.

Just do what I did and return it. I for one will never do business with these people again. It is a total sham and a travesty that we were given the old switch to something that we thought we were getting when we paid for this. I for one believe that if no resolution is found satisfactory then legal matters must ensue.

The responsibility of customers getting what they paid for ultimately falls on PCS. Capcom did ask for changes to the prototype's face but they did not request that Chun Li get chameleon eyes which is, by far, the main issue with this statue. This product is technically "defective", so its unfair to a ask that the customer pays for the back and forth shipping costs if he wants to have that defect repaired. Paying the shipping costs would be the fair, moral, right thing to do for PCS (despite loss of income) since they ultimately allowed a defective product fall in the hands of collectors. Making the customer pay shipping costs to have his defective product repaired is simply wrong.

If it is your desire to act like sheep then do so, I for one do not have to tolerate something that should have been. It is also my right to fight for something that I as a consumer was offered. I am sure that I am not the only one who feels this way. So if you wish to go baaa like a sheep then you go ahead and do so.

I might also add that those who agree with this so called solution live near to the area where the "product" is being re-painted so their costs to this is not as high as others.

Just got my blue version today. I actually like it enough to not return it anyway. The eye is a little lazy, but you can angle the piece to make it not really noticeable. I may also prefer the piece without teeth. My biggest concern is actually the potential for the piece to start leaning over time. As for getting it repainted I think Ill wait until some people get theirs back and post pics before I make my decision. I guess Id fall in the vocal minority who think the service should be completely free, we spend hundreds on these things to begin with so we shouldnt have to pay to repair an obvious defect, but since Im only collecting the characters I like (not the entire series) I dont have too big a problem paying a shipping cost if it will make me happier with the piece since its more about a character than it is about a set/resale

While I do understand that people are pissed about paying back and forth s/h. At least the statue is getting re-painted. And to those that sent an email to SS asking about the eye/ mouth. They were most likely given a partial refund. This covers almost all of the cost of s/h. At the end of the day you're still paying the same amount of money for the re-painted statue.

As for international shipments, I think there is a way to ship the item out as not purchased goods, not sure though.

jye318
08-21-2012, 02:26 PM
I think the worry is not to pay the shipping fee, I am just worry about If it will get damage during the shipping time.
Since there is no time limited for the repaint , I am still waiting to see if anyone sell cheaper on the bay. Hope Jerry will get a date that we won't miss the repaint

There was mention of a time limit of 6-8 months and the risk of breakage is the same as with any statue. Just make sure you insure it and then if it breaks you get the money back and can repair the statue. Also with the new styro I have heard no word of breakages so wouldnt be worried on that side.

I wouldn't expect any of the flippers selling on ebay to have the re-paint version on offer only the standard.

Well the safest way to ship her is in her styrofoam. You can pull the other pieces out if you want as they do charge by weight.

Unfortunately we cant make that kind of a change. Its a bit of an assembly line and if we offer to change one persons eye color then we open the door to everyone wanting a total custom paint job.

Its anything but "free", as customers have to cover the back and forth shipping costs which can add up to well over 100$ for international customers (shipping + customs + freight, applicable taxes, etc...); only to get what they had already paid for and should've gotten in the first place

Just do what I did and return it. I for one will never do business with these people again. It is a total sham and a travesty that we were given the old switch to something that we thought we were getting when we paid for this. I for one believe that if no resolution is found satisfactory then legal matters must ensue.

Ungreatful...

Do you honestly think if Jerry could have avoided issues he would have?

The milk has been spilt and he's offering a solution to help the collector instead of doing nothing. What would you have done in his place?

To those of you who may have known Sarpedon, you would know he was not a bad person, in fact he was the nicest guy I knew. He was waiting so long for this piece to come out before his demise. The situation with the paint issues were agonizing to him he really wanted to see the completion of this statue for along time. When it finally came out, he was disappointed with the paint job since he had waitied so long knowing his time was short. I remember when it was solicited he was excited with this statue. I will have the statue repainted and have it placed with his final resting place. So to all of you who had bashed on him to hell with you. I for one will share his disappointment till it is my time as well.

It's difficult on forums to really know anyone. There's just a screen name and most don't use their real name or profile pic.

People bash each other all the time. We are all passionate and often disagree with each other. This is a place of opinions.
But we know little of each others lives.

Is there a thread dedicated to your friend where we can find out more in regards to his story and his life?
Or could you tell us?

I'm sorry to hear the news of your friend. You have my deepest condolences.

I gotta call B.S. on this claim of your "friend" passing away. Gonna put the repainted statue near his final resting place, huh? Sure, guy. Just like you're gonna share in his disappointment in how this statue came out until the day you die. Wow, at least you have passion for the statue. Nobody can deny that, based on your above post. :thumbs2:

Hi PCS. Will you guys be repainting ONLY ones that have been sold and sent out? What if I decide to buy a Chun Li directly from Sideshow? Will those be repainted also or should I expect the same paint mishap then have to send it out?

I know you guys are getting tired from this lol. So I'll field this one.

Any Chun Li purchased at retail will have the Paint defects. Otherwise known as "Capcom's requested changes" + a lazy eye:banghead:

Jerry is providing a "customization" to make Chun look like her SDCC 2011 appearance.

So, in short, unless you've sent your Chun to Jerry it'll have a less than savory look on its mug.

Hope that helps.

To you Andrew, you can piss off. The man did not realize he had cancer until it was too late. Never knew he had it until he passed out one day and went to the hospital where the scan revealed a brain tumor. To all the others who were more compassionate I thank you. May you never live thru something like this.

Actually, my bet is that you are both MACHINEMAN and SARPEDON. Not many people on this forum create usernames with all caps. Some do, but most do not.

SARPEDON makes a post on 08/12/07 and doesn't post again for 5 years. 07/12/12 SARPEDON comes out of no where to post again in the Chun Li thread just days after you (MACHINEMAN) get banned for a series of angry and insulting posts in the same Chun Li thread. Your last post (http://www.statueforum.com/showpost.php?p=4344375&postcount=4907)before you were banned was 07/07/12 and days later SARPEDON makes a surprise return after a 5 year vacation from the forum. You're both angry about how Chun Li turned out and the last couple of posts by SARPEDON talk about pursing legal matters (http://www.statueforum.com/showpost.php?p=4391627&postcount=56)against PCSC for the way the statue was. Really?

You're telling me that your "friend" (SARPEDON) spent the last few weeks of his life agonizing over a statue and was more concerned about returning the statue and taking PCSC to court than he was about the fact that his life could be measured in days?

Why don't YOU piss off and STFU! There's a real board member here on this forum who just found out his cancer came back (http://www.statueforum.com/showthread.php?t=131297)and probably won't live through it this time and here you are making up stories. :thumbsdow

Sorry but it really is the topic.

I started collecting about a year ago just when the doctor told me my father didn't have but only 5-6 months. Don't really know but I think it played a relief role, and still does.

It is a very serious matter and I wish nobody ever get involved one way or another. This is not something to debate about in any way because it definitely brings pain memories to other people. Just think about it whenever you are about to post.
Man it is serious.
Some people are here just to have the opportunity to distract their mind of various issues or problems. So lets discuss about Chun -li and Ryu and Sagat and leave the other issues to be dealt the proper way by the people who are really involved in them...for whom I really wish the best.

So Chun-li rocks. She is the first playable female character in a fighting game isn't her?
The statue also rocks! No matter lazy eyes or not!

To create a fake user (by the way I found your THIRD fake user also and that one is also all CAPS) post with that handle while you were banned and then claim he died of cancer once your ban is over, well that's gotta be the lowest thing I've ever seen done here at SF and believe me I've seen A LOT. To do this while another, VALUED member of SF is battling cancer and we all feel powerless to help, well that's just disgusting. Consider yourself perma banned and it's now my daily mission to search your known ips and catch every single time you try to sneak back in. Any of you guys ever suspect this guy of posting under a new alias, please let me know.

Yeah those two from yesterday were interesting. I thought they were the same but MONSTER referred to them as clowns and I noticed one was using English terminology and the other US. Even though they appeared to have the same sense of humour and inability to spell.

Jerry told me he does them in batches of 20 (or something like that).

So it depends when he gets to a total 20 delivered I guess.

Theres a million pages on this previous but to cut a long story short the factory made a hash of the paint job and she looks cross eyed and a bit rough around the edges facially.

Additionally the eye make up was over done on the final version and at the last minute the whites of the teeth were painted over (this looks last minute too).

If you send it to Jerry the below changes will be made to make her look like the original pretty protoype ....

Eyes will be re-aligned
Lower eye make up will be removed
Whites of the teeth will be painted back in

If you live in the states this is a no brainer as the custom paint changes make a huge difference to the aesthetic look of the statue. For International buyers it's a little more challenging

No man, it's fixed. And it looks great.

But your camera and that flash aren't doing the statue any favors. It's doing a 'fisheye' with the face.

I'd back up at least two or three inches. Maybe some natural light, or at least better lighting.

People used to do that with the Ken PF all the time. I'm convinced that's why ppl think his face is ugly (horrible photos).

Anyway, congrats on your Chun Li! Can't wait to get mine back.

Please feel free to post more pics. I'd like to see more.

s_paulik87
01-08-2013, 01:01 AM
no, it's fixed Titan and looks way better than the original, but yeah back the camera up and get some natural light. In your pic it looks like the under eye skin is painted a completely different color and is all blotchy or something, and the camera not focusing on her eyes make it look like the paint on the pupils is sloppy when it probably isn't.

Here's what you have to do.

Take the COA and the Hands out of your box. No need to send those (they could break or get damaged).

Send the base. It goes on the base to dry (So I was told).

Put a paper in the box. It should have:

* Your Name
* Return Shipping Address
* Phone number
* Email Address

* Thank you note? Lol.

Mail it to the address he provided you. You'll be contacted for a return shipping payment when the job is complete.

Free advice: Be patient. The job took a Sh!t load of time for me. It was over a holiday, but still.

It takes a bunch of time. But it's well worth it.

Good luck. (Hopefully this post will also find Comicbookguy)

uhm.. no :laugh: Customs has even put a stamp on the box that's says 'free of charge'. I never get a bill afterwards, I live in The Netherlands, we don't get a bill afterwards, we always have to pay upfront (to the mailman or postoffice if you havent got cash money at home) in case you have to pay, you cant have your package until you paid the customsbill :) Almost all the stuff I buy are from outside of Europe and paid a lot of customs so I know the drill.

Anyway, if PCS is still doing repaints of the face (they stopped in june 2013 I read, one forummember here got a 'no, we don't do that anymore' answer): GO FOR IT.

Coool... I'll ask Audrey anyhow just to be sure..

Had to pay my customs later. Like 2 months later. Ones with Fedex and one time with Post NL. Im also from the Netherlands. Maybe it depends on transporter and the stamps on the box. Dunno. Goodluck anyway with your Chun.

Thanks! i won't get a bill because I know why it was 'free of charge'.
