Same. but if it has flaws i'm definitely blaming the es.

Obviously there is a demand for this guy and whether there are a total of thousand or 6 thousands there will be issues regardless.

I will say this about high ES, I got the collectors edition of Spiderman and my number was 2700 of 5000 and it arrived absolutely flawless. So a high ES doesn't always mean QC issues. Sometimes a later number or second batch can be better because initial issues are corrected, I saw this with the recent Thanos and the smooth spots on the legs.

yea, for the missing textures around his groin area Sideshow responded with

As for your other issue with the body, please know that the indents on the inner thigh are intentional and will be on every statue. These are for the tunic, and based on how that particular polystone statue cooled, they will be more evident on some statues than others. These variations are present across the entire edition. Several final retail pieces we examined in our offices looked virtually identical to your collectible.

Yeah, they might have been intentional but they shouldn't have shown. That's why they corrected the issue on the next batches and you didn't see those marks at all. I know one person who contacted SS and is getting a new body sent to him because of them.

The ES this company's issuing is nothing more than a cash grab with terrible quality. Read the Thanos on throne thread. Nothing but flaws with odd one that was legit. You just don't read that on XM pages. Sure it's more costly but I'm getting my money's worth with XM. Few pieces I'm waiting on to round out my fav characters I'm so done.

This hobby is biggest money pit around and the loyal fans are getting hosed by greedy companies producing crap!

Go buy XM products then. Problem solved.

Huh ...I must've missed this. I don't believe I've seen any pics or even posts of this issue. Where there pics of this issue with the inner thighs?
