Just got mine today and it is amazing in person, one of my flippers was also broke but an easy superglue fix, I'll take better pics in the AM, but here are some quick phone shots!

Thanks TJ. I'll let you know when I get it.
Thanks for the quick response, and you sending me an email. I should have contacted you directly instead of posting in a public forum. Sorry about that.

I do appricate the fact that you checked the statue to confirm it's good and modifed the shipping so the statue hopefully won't break in transit.

Looking forward to this one will let you when I arrives.
Thanks
Alan

Hey man, hate to tell you this but I see a part in your photos that should be one piece. It looks like an easy glue fix. You have two hanging parts from wires, the red breather and the black cylinder? If you look at the breather, you'll see a circle of bare resin where the black cylinder should be attached.

Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

I need to look up Mylanta...But yeah, I was listening to a sculptor I believe on Radd Titan a few nights ago. He said that Sideshow had three of their top painters on Red Sonja. And that we are basically going to get some artists in a China factory to attempt to match it. That started to get me worried...

Nice catch! I must have done that when I flipped the base, I put it on wrong at first (had help from the wife) but at 1am when I realized it was wrong, I layed her down and did it solo, and I though something was off but could not figure it out, but I see it now. Should be an easy fix, but thanks a million for letting me know!

After all this, I am overjoyed I was able to score the variant that year at SDCC.

Here is a question: What do GG do with the prototypes once they've sold all the statues based on the prototype?

It would be good to own a prototype
