If an imperfection is covered up by another part of the statue when displayed then I wouldn't worry about it. If it appears "mint" on the shelf then that's fine. Out of sight, out of mind.

Your legs however seem to have enough issues that you should look into getting a new one. One scratch hidden by her skirt when displayed, fine. A number of small scratches on her knees, thighs, butt...now you've got a case.

The neck marks, if they're hidden, whatever. Hide them. Don't worry about it.

The Joker doll looks flawless. You fixed it.

I'll give mine a close look over tonight. I haven't had time to give her an inspection. But that said - hope you love her. She's an amazing piece.
I've been collecting since 08 so I should know better than to be ocd but it's hard to help sometimes, haha.

But yeah I agree nothing is perfect. As long as I get replacement legs I'll be more than happy.

I tried to resist this statue, but every picture I see of her, she is the perfect Harley for me. If you are gonna get 1 statue of a character it might as well be the one you can not stop staring at.

Price was steep, but after looking at all the additions, heads, and just the overall look of her when she is displayed it felt worth it.

Free shipping from SS helped the decision as well!

I'm mad I ordered mine last week and missed the free shipping, but I'm definitely not mad I ordered this piece. She is by far the most gorgeous piece I have ever seen! I stared at her for about 2 hours straight the first night I got her.

Go ahead. If you don't get a replacement you may get credit.

A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.

Oh I definitely will. She's a great piece so I don't want to return her.

It just sucks cause it's already been a LONG process to get these. Took forever and now I have to contact them yet again and wait some more.

It'll be worth it in the end.

(Also I can tell the paint job on these prior to the breakage was flawless,...bummer)
