Does anyone know what type of paint to use for touch ups? I have a little white I need to fill in...

My Sinestro arrived with very minor paint flaws. A few dark spots on the back edge of the left leg, small scrape on the white collar (which I want to fix), but overall it's doable. Can't really notice unless you're specifically looking.

I finally got this statue and the S on his chest is absolutely horrendous. It's not centered with the red border has round corners and just looks poorly made. It's unfortunate because the statue looks great other wise. But for me the S makes the suit.

I feel like I got cheated as the photo from their site looks awesome.

I contacted Sideshow and they said the pictures on their website are of the prototype and not he final product.

This is total BS.

...i am not surprised by the response from them...

They're gonna tell you to glue it or have a $30 refund. I highly doubt they'll make you smash it for that. I'd get on to Fedex staright away and tell them your disputing the item due to damage in shipping and they should put the tax bill on hold while it's sorted.

Why on earth would he try to fix it? They will send you a new body.

If you fix it then the statue loses half its value easy. Sideshows fsult, sideshows problem

Wow, how many times have you fell for that?

Your taking $30 refunds for statues that have cracked in half?
