Thigh size, now there's a topic, and not one i recall seeing here in this thread

Psylocke's thigh size rate's among the largest, in my 1/4 collection atleast. Paint her green and she'd make for a decent enough She-HULK. Looking at other pieces in my 1/4 collection and Lady Deadpool and Rogue are next in line when it comes to thigh size.

I'm stoked to have this Psylocke in my collection (even if there is a base fit issue). I'm convinced the portrait pictured was designed for this body, and the other portrait was an after thought.

I'd agree with you. It just flows with the body posture so much more naturally.

My delivery was 'rescheduled' by UPS. I assume due to the holiday. So....hopefully I get her today.

I'm still waiting on an update on the replacement I requested. Apparently it takes days for their inventory team to see if they have a replacement available. I wonder if they're just waiting for someone else to return theirs...

I can almost guarantee my Iron Man MK3 was a return. Came in a funky box, had been opened and had the, this is the one we picked to QC sheet attached. B.S. Was a return. Had scratches and a ton wrong with it. Unfortunately the replacement wasn't any better, so back it went.

I think they sometimes 'marry up' pieces like that. Hence why I have gotten blank boxes and that sheet before, but the pieces were at least passable. Actually, Brown Wolverine came that way too, and they wouldn't do anything for me on that, so it was also returned.

Shoot, I just gave myself anxiety wondering what she is going to look like today.

Yep, I'm still waiting too. It honestly annoys the hell out of me that some people are helped within a day or two while others are forced to wait a week or more for even any sort of acknowledgement. I've yet to even get a response to my initial email and pics.

I won't be very happy if they tell me I have to return the entire piece because of one tip of the base being broken off.

they're waiting to receive enough returns so they can turn around and use them as replacements

I accepted a trade off. Keep the piece (that fails to fully insert into the base) and accept $50 in Sideshow credit, which i will probably put towards Starfire PF

Well #42 is here... not issue free unfortunately.
Head sculpt is awesome, the piece itself is a thing of beauty.

First, she has a scratch/gouge on her inner thigh.

Then the tip of the base came broken. In fact it actually doesn’t look like it matched even without the break, so pretty sure that’s a factory screw up.
