Thanks for the response! Yeah I figured it was intended to create some sort of contrast. I'm happy with Terry and Mai so I hope Dizzy will keep up the good streak.

One minor complaint is that the 2 bases do not fit together perfectly. One can see the seams between the bases and there are some gaps—albeit relatively small.

Honestly that's so minor I never even considered it. For me the two bases fit together pretty nicely and the seam is hardly noticeable since it just looks like separated pavement.

I like you guys, I really do.

But that answer just isn't cutting it. That arm is keeping me from buying the statue. Stylized is one thing a grossly inaccurate oversight on a f̶i̶g̶h̶t̶e̶r̶/b̶o̶d̶y̶b̶u̶i̶l̶d̶e̶r̶ HUMAN $700+ statue is another.


Every other angle and pic I've seen is top notch. Please do better than this.

To be honest I think I would have never noticed the arm thing if I hadn't read the post about it. When posed you just won't see it.

Thanks for the input. We will do better. FYI, the person who complained about that arm in Facebook does not even own the statue. He saw the picture online posted by a collector and chose to criticize based off that one picture. One thing about statues is that sometimes, it's easy to pick an angle and lighting to criticize as no statue is perfect. We sometimes look back at our previous work and cringe how we could've done certain things better. We will keep doing so and keep pushing ourselves. Thankfully, so far we have received mostly positive feedback for Terry.

We've had some stock surrendered by one of our distributors so we have a handful available on our website if you missed out. This is the last chance to pre-order with the exclusive art print that comes with the statue: https://www.kinetiquettes.com/produc...scale-diorama/
