The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Won't expect her shipping before Summer 2018.

I take any full-body image and potential pre-order as "dropping"

I don't expect to have her in physical possession until 2018.

So I received my Evil Lyn the other day and she looks great. She has no paint application issues at all, however, that lean is just terrible!! I just cant look past it.
It definitely has to be a sculpting issue. Something went wrong between the prototype and the production piece.

Has anyone contacted Sideshow about this? Are they aware of the issue?

For those of you who have the statue, what solution have you come up with to fix this. Is anyone brave enough to perhaps bend the peg enough so that she appears to be standing straight?

Yes, I had a terrible lean on mine (and some chipped parts, but the lean was the most concerning issue). Contacted Sideshow, took me ages, i.e. almost one month and a half to finally get a new statue on the way, which is now being shipped and should arrive on Monday. I hope that she's standing straight on the base this time; I have explicitly asked them to check her before sending her out....we'll see. I will let you know what she looks like once she arrived.

The statue is designed with a very distinctive lean to her design. There is no fixing that.

Are your statues leaning more than that?

Go to the SS website and look at the scaling pic (the one with the apple). That's where you see the lean the most clearly.
