this late in the game it is almost 100% a return. my waitlist for a Mad Gear Poison converted after a long time and I got an AP with the vinyl sticker on the base misaligned and white powder all over the black base. it came from SSC and the shipper carton was hardly taped closed. i was amazed the contents where still inside and intact. it also had some red tape on the shipper carton which indicated it was a return.

So was there any actual issues with it?

For anyone wanting to know the size of Millena 1/3, i make her:

Height 29 inch (top of head - bottom of base)
Width 22 inch (left - right tips of dagger-like sais)
Depth 12 inch (front - back base)


The Sideshow website provides the following info:
Product Size: Height: 27.5" (698.5 mm) | Weight: 30.00 lbs (13.61 kg)
Box Size: Height: 15.00" (381 mm) | Width: 26.00" (660.4 mm) | Depth: 34.00" (863.6 mm)


While the height size is incorrect, there is no mention of width or depth.

Thank you for this... greatly appreciated. I've been noticing a lot how the measurements on SSC's site tend to be wrong for most pieces.

I hope the Sideshow sizes are correct for the new SSC Catwoman PF, as i have a shelf ready installed, as space is tight'ish, hence the reason to put the piece on the wall.

I plugged in my Mileena 1/3 for the first time to day, and it failed to light up. Any suggestions?

The reason it has taken me so long to test the light up feature is because i needed to pick at a US - UK plug adapter that lowers the voltage. Also, the US plug design is different to a UK plug.

After some research, reading reviews etc, i settled with:
Tacima SC5474W/BP Step Down Voltage Convertor, 230/240 Volts down to 110/120



Could the issue be the bulb?
I've not attempted to gain access to the bulb - is it possible?

No way to tell for sure without troubleshooting, could be anything; adapter is bad, switch on base, wiring issue, or LED issue. If it is not the adapter you will probably have to get into the base, the label should peal off, but you might need to cut into it even if it does.

If they've used LED's i doubt it's that, as they are pretty strong. I can't test the adapter as Mileena is the only US product i own that requires plugging in. US plugs don't appear to be fitted with a fuse. Thinking about it, it can only be the adapter or the bulb. I'm not 100% sure, i think i caught a very short 1/100th of a second pulse of light when i first plugged it in. It does sort of point to it being the bulb. I have a feeling it might not be an LED inside, but an old style filament bulb, which blow with ease.

Hi, its not my picture but it was from 2017 when a guy got problem with his Scorpion... maybe this helps you cause I guess Mileena got the same inside the base. Also a good indicator to get inside the base for a repair if needed. But first I also would use another convertor. In germany the 220V works with my 99cent adapter.
