Gonna keep it regardless as my sister is a master seamstress. I sent her pics of the cape already and she’s quite certain she can replicate it with higher grade materials. I’m good no matter what the outcome is with the current capes. I do hope SS replaces all the capes with something better. It’s the right thing to do.



I'm already on the run, but got a bit of a head start on you! I feel a little safer now knowing they will catch you before me, lol.

LOL! I’ll try to catch up and escape my tormentors. It’s just too beautiful of a statue to part with. Just imagine how much more incredible it could have looked had the cape been fully sculpted.

thats a legitimate concern and would advise everyone against displaying it cape on for the time being

I left mine at home with the cape attached. I’ll leave in a couple of hours and check on it when I get back home. I’ll be removing the cape for the time being, but will check to see if there’s any bleeding onto the statue itself. A few hours probably isn’t enough time for that to happen, but you never know.....

Got the same email. I would be ecstatic if they truly fix the issue and issue replacement capes. The statue is flawless otherwise.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Just got of the chat with the CS. Yeah, I got the same info, but as mine is going to be shipped to me in 9 days, they offered me the inspection of my statue. It might be delayed for an extra 2-4 days, but hopefully I'll get mine without the issue. Anyway, it's good to know that they are working on the solution
