Sacrifice is in the house and set up. Absolutely no issues putting it together. Conan, girl and post all fit flush. Magnets were all good and the snake is stable. Paint is excellent. Only thing I had to do was to straighten out the swords with a blow dryer. Took 5 minuets to fix.
All of the portraits are beyond good. The slave girl came out very well also, contrary to the initial negative reaction to her blow up doll looks. Trust me i've gone out with chicks that make her look like a super model.
ARH has a good factory. The paint apps are excellent and all pieces were packed securely. I don't subscribe to mint or perfect when it comes to collectibles. You can always find something if you look close enough. That being said there are no major flaws just a few miniscule paint spots on the snake body but nothing to really matter. I have never been nit picky.
I took my time unboxing so the styro pebbles were kept to a minimum until I got to the snake base. Keep your mini vac close.
Conan EX has an ES of 50. Snake dio has an ES of 300.
The dio is a big win. The five portraits and three weapon hands offer many display options. Very impressive and spectacular. Glad it's part of my display room.
My mediocre pics coming.
The swords were bent but 5 minutes with the hair dryer took care of it...The dagger magnet is very tight in fact it doesn't quite fit in the hole but the Magnets do ok holding it...all fits like a glove on the base...I like the extra base, it looks like the bigger one but is really different, I like the fact he's (realistically ) not nose to nose with the snake otherwise he would get bit big time...I think it looks better using both bases...well worth the money no doubts here folks....good job by ARH
