I’ve seen it with other products period, which is why I recognized the sticker instantly. Production includes several steps of QC. Both pieces had obvious defects that were caught on the factory floor but didn’t get corrected/ got shipped anyway. It’s rare, but happens.

Just got my Huntress and WOW!! One of the nicest paint apps I have gotten to date from Sideshow and I agree 100% with the people that have said this is one of the nicest portraits to date. Just a beautiful statue and just so excited to FINALLY have a Huntress that perfecty represents the character in my collection. With Huntress out of the way my top 3 most wanted are now Batwoman, Supergirl and Dejah Thoris!
All in all, just a stunning statue all the way around. And yes, my cape has the bleed issue as well so it looks like my Sideshow streak comes to an end today. Hopefully the next statue will be the start of another very long one. And I have already contacted Sideshow and will upload some pictures of it later tonight on the "bleed" thread.

Yes she is.
And I am glad that my faith in Sideshow was not misplaced. I felt from the very beginning of this issue that Sideshow would do the right thing as this is just not the company it was 3+ years ago. They have raised their game in just about every way possible IMO.

Sounds like they’re going to replace the capes. That’s great.

Received my Huntress today- gorgeous portrait, really stunning. Such a beautiful statue!
Unfortunately I also had the cape bleed, as well as a noticeable paint chip on her chest Just submitted to Sideshow for a cape and possible body replacement - fingers crossed.

I didn't put mine together yet, just went through and made sure all the pieces were ok, but I did take one pic of the portrait as it really is just stunning!!
Its a tad bit blurry as my hands just arent very steady, but man is that just a beauty of a portrait!!
