No need to mentioned the frog, but I am not sure if triss and Yen did really sell that well though, they took a lot more time to be sold out compared to Geralt and Eredin. Yen also dropped in price for around 36K Yen on Amazon.jp

Nah....there was issues with Arkham Catwoman arriving with broken legs, and there was issues with Huntress also arriving with a broken "ear" flap from her mask. To be fair, these are packaging issues - which while a royal pain in the arse, it's still not as bad as poor paint apps or "bad" sculpting......

Wish they made a Henry Cavill Geralt.

I DM'd Prime 1 and they confirmed it was a painted proto.

Just found out my pre-order for Ciri was cancelled when I was expecting to get her this week... I'm pretty upset to say the least. I'm hoping that Prime 1 will make a 1/3 Ciri to go with this Geralt since I won't be able to get a good Ciri statue any other way at this point. Not really expecting Sideshow to do Ciri justice but maybe they'll surprise me lol.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

I pre-ordered her from Man of Action Figures because I had canceled my pre-order directly from Prime 1 back in June 2019 but decided this past April that I still wanted her. By then, most places no longer had her available so I didn't really have any other choice even though I had heard about people not having their pre-orders fulfilled in the past. I managed to use a coupon with my pre-order, which I thought was great at the time, but turns out it shouldn't have worked and the store owner thought my order was cancelled because of it but apparently never was. They only had one Ciri ordered from Sideshow and someone else must've taken my order since they thought my order was cancelled. I'm assuming they shipped Ciri out to the other customer and they only sent me the cancellation email today when they realized what had happened. It really sucks especially since Ciri was the first high end polystone statue that I was interested in getting. At least they immediately sent me a refund but it still sucks.

Sure it's not like the proto, but I am very happy with my portrait. Wish she was looking up a bit more, but thankfully I got a nice one.

I was playing with my Ciri statue’s portraits to see if I could get her looking more straight on. Sadly, couldn’t. But holding the portrait so that she’s looking more parallel improves the look dramatically. I suspect it was supposed to be that way and the casting on the production pieces were not quite right. I’m lucky I display her at eye level. Otherwise it would look even worse.
