Love this guy but just noticed this break on mine today. I had to go back in the box to find the piece. Anyone else have this damage?

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

Does it have any plastic or PVC part?

I don't usually look at pieces this close but the way the paint flaked off of that broken piece has me concerned that the paint is not sticking to this guy very well.

I just found this paint crack. I wonder if this guy was primed before it was painted.

I really like this guy and the price was good but ugh, don't know what to do.

You know, I'm not 100% sure. It doesn't feel like PVC but the end of the wings are bendy. The rest is firm. Maybe this is what they call resin. It's unlike the cold cast resin I have in a different collection so I don't know what this is made of.

Mine did require re-gluing the prosthetic tail fin section back on to the tail. But was simple. Honestly seems I have to glue something back on half of everything I buy whoever it is produced by. LOL Sort of routine. Everything else as expected for mass produced statues. They nailed the eyes most important of all.

Just purchase the next piece they unveil that interests you. You'll be fine.
