Got one from Sideshow Seconds, and it was unfortunately a mess. Her skirt was broken on the front, there were brownish streaks in the resin on the neck, and both of her earrings were missing (!).

I don?t have it in me to send it back, wait for a week for it to get to Sideshow, wait for them to process the return, then wait another week and keep my fingers crossed to see if it arrives safely. I tried to see if I could destroy the broken body/head and just get replacements, but Sideshow ixnayed that idea. So I guess it?s going back.

It was an enormous pain to repack. There?s 8 million pieces. I?d suggest taking pictures of how the statue is boxed if you get one.

Quick picture of Chun Li. Noticed missing 1 piece. Hopefully it's inside the box.

Kind of weird. Couple pieces, especially Chun Li's body and rice have some sort of mold and dirt all over. Good thing it cleans off.

Little disappointed on the skin paint. I think it's too thin which makes the forehead darker or black because the hair piece behind shows through. Wish the paint was thicker or not use clear resin. Hope they improve this on the next release. Otherwise, everything else is well executed and painted.

Looks awesome besides Ryu.

That's a great move, thank you! How does it work if one hasn't ordered directly from your site? I got mine through a german shop (special order for me) and it should arrive within the next few weeks.

Thank you so much. That's the only nit pick I have. Otherwise, like I've mentioned, it's well executed and painted on everythingelse. Very dynamic. Regardless, still the best Chun Li. That's why I ordered it.

Hats off to you and the whole Kinetiquette team. Awesome customer service 👏.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

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