Statue is great and well packed. The only thing you need to worry about is the damn clothes that is impossible to fit on some (if not most). My Ritual's back got a bit scratched (by the tiny metal rod that sticks out a bit to connect) when I tried to put the upper cloths on last time. Probably gonna buy another one though, I got mine cheap (mint, about 100 euro if I remember right).

When I got this piece for that cheap, I was already planning to get a second; one displaying her (bare) back en one displaying her (topless) front. Topless I cant really go right now because I have three kids ; my oldest (8 yrs old) already says 'ewwww' when he sees some of my scantily clad female statues

In 5 days time I get to see the statue. I've been working abroad for the past 3 months, and ordered the statue before I left, in hope it would show up before I left. It was stuck in customs for an age, then there was import duty, which I had to get a friend to pay and collect the figure from the Post-office. I sure hope it's worth it.

All I can say is, I am so impressed by Ritual.. Compared to many of you people here, with many statues, by comparison I have very little. Here's my, all be it somewhat small display cabinet, and Ritual only just fits. I thought my Stormtrooper figure was big, then along came Ritual. Here's some photo's, iPhone quality (sorry). I will say something, Ritual's outfit is stiff, and a back piece looks un-clipped. Also (being a little picky here) the sword would have looked great, made from metal..






I had to remove a shelf, to make room for Ritual. She's only just fits.


This is the top shelf, with Felicia (from Dark-Stalkers) and a Ferrari F50

Can anyone help me out with "In-Hand" pics of the Gypsy version?

I like it a lot. But after I got two horrible paintups from Sideshow,
I dont trust any company anymore (concerning their advertising pictures).

Yamato is one of the few companies whose final production product comes damn near to the advertised piece! I trust, from experience, what I see advertised is what I will get in the end. Don't let Sideshows shady practice's influence your opinion on all other companies.
