No, fortunately I was able to discover the issue and rebox the statue before she saw it... She was none the wiser!!!!

Did you get your return label?

My Arkhalla arrived today, and to say she's stunning does not do her justice... Here are my observations about her:
* The sculpt is just ridiculously gorgeous... the only piece I have that's comparably beautiful is Mark Newman's Poison Ivy
* She's HUGE
* Her size, combined with the brilliant sculpt, gives her a charisma that photos don't really capture... she completely commands the space around her, and she's just epically wonderful.
As for the drawbacks of the piece, I think others have pretty well described her shortcomings - there's no positive attachment for the statue to the base, so moving her means you're pretty much disassembling / reassembling her (at least I have to). I was dreading the infamous 'bubblegum' nipple color, but oddly on my piece it's not nearly as bad as I had expected - but let's just say she's an indoor kitty for sure :-)
Overall I'm really blown away with how well the piece turned out, and I'm thankful to have her. Attached are some of my glamour shots of her, which again, don't really do her justice.

Nice pictures! They make her skin tone look kind of tan but she is actually cream skin color, at lest mine is.

Thanks Morgul Steve! Yes, mine has more of a cream tone in natural light as well - the light in the photos definitely gives her a slight tan. Out of curiosity, does your piece have the 'butt dimple'? I think you can see it on mine in the 4th pic - I'm not sure if that's part of the sculpt or just a divot on mine.

Man DD seeing your pics makes me really sorry I passed on her. I just thought 1/3 scale was too big and I had other priorities but she looks fantastic for sure.

Awesome pics! I love the lighting! And yes... She is huge! I wasn't expecting that much difference between 1:4 and 1:3 but there is!!!
