Teeth can be touched up quite easily with some tan and ivory paint.

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

Bros gonna be mad about it no matter what. As I've said in the past, if this statue was complete perfection, without a single flaw for anyone to make a fuss over, the answer would be "not gonna PO it's just a TG endo and that movie sucked"
You can't win. What must suck being a producer listening to these kinds of collectors only for them to not order your product. This endo was ultimately delayed because of these kinds of collectors and who knows just how many of them bothered to order the endo in the end.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I agree I have no issue picking out flaws if they exist but the hobby has degraded to people picking out flaws that really don't exist or are not really flaws in the first place but more preference. Is this perfect no, but does it look really cool and have a presence yes.
And yes most the people complaining never intended to order, granted some did and didn't like it, which is fine, but some just like to tear pieces down just because.

I may have to give that a go if the teeth on mine don't look good. I think overall the piece came out pretty good based on darb's pics.

To be fair, one person made a passing comment. It's mostly the same members anyway.

unacceptable in my opinion. I should not be required to fix something like that when paying $500 for a statue...especially if the producer is taking the time to individually inspect each piece.
They should be the ones to fix it before mailing it to me.

Yeah, just base coat in some acrylic tan paint and try to paint as much of each tooth leaving just a small space in between, no gaps. Then lightly start drybrushing the tips with a lighter mix of tan/ivory and keep going lighter in color to taste. I did this with their skull and while the teeth on this one are a bit dark, they look better than the stark white with black gaps.
