Possibly. I imagine they could be waiting on the prints or still pairing them up with the statues for shipping.

Picking mine up now! I'll post photos/video later today, assuming it's all intact

Edit: I decided against the video but photos are done.


Pros


She looks great.

Scale-wise, she's very accurate.

She fits well into the base.

The rusted effects across the ladder and chimneys look legit.

The hundreds of stitches are all painted neatly.

The criticisms about the mouth and eyes aren't noticeable at normal viewing distance.


Cons

If there are any complaints, I think they're mainly going to be directed towards the mouth and eyes. Keep in mind, this is looking from an inch away.

The polystone towards the back of the throat is a bit messy.

The bottom row of teeth are painted as a thin white line across the tongue.

The colour used for the spacing between the top teeth is the same colour as the tongue.

The eye shadow looks like water colour. It's not a smooth blend from skin to eye shadow.

The stone bricks are painted too thick. The paint application across the Shreck cat head is a lot more successful.

I'm missing a foam foot under the base.

The base is not numbered.


Final thoughts


Honestly, I'm writing this up before properly viewing her but I'm very happy with what I've received.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

She's probably a tad too tall to go with Hot Toys Batman Returns, right?

They are, but the companies seem to have different measurements.

TH's Julie Newmar is significantly taller than HT's Adam West, for example.
