If we were talking about Sideshow or Kotobukiya whom I've been buying from for years, then I would agree with you.
Then read past posts (Chad posts here including recently in the Superman post to address a issue over there) or better yet go to their Facebook and watch the videos. Educate yourself. Would you rather wallow in worry or set yourself at ease? With ease of access to information I never understand why people would choose to remain uninformed.

I was afraid bringing superman and wonder woman out so close together might be scary if Quality issues arose.

Unfortunately for some of us, a seam in this area is an absolute deal killer. I even hesitate to keep it with the intention of selling it off for a profit as the line gets deeper as a new owner might end up balking as well once they get it in hand and see what the deal is.

I just don't see it being worth it.

Still looks like a beauty, and a bargain for anyone that will be displaying it at, or below, eye level.
Okay, so today was the first that it was brought to his attention. I let him know about the issue some on here had and on Freaks board (I think it may be the same collector. not sure). I do not have my ex in hand so I cannot say with certainty if it's an issue with all.

Yep, that's me. I wouldn't want you to confuse me with all the other members named Karnis.😉😁😎

It may not be the gaping, shadow filled chasm that Karnis got, but imagine someone drawing a line in pencil across the neck of any of your other statues.

At least you got a nice refit in production to console you.
I bought a Tena control set for my kit this past summer, but the aztecing paint scheme is daunting me, and it looks like people are painting this in sub assemblies so there isn't the luxury of building the whole thing up and then painting it. I really should break the ice on it soon though.
TH thinks that Karnis' issue may be an extreme case.

I'll report about mine as soon as she arrives. I'm hoping in about two weeks? (I ordered directly from Tweeterhead for the EX).

I'm guessing she's coming in batches? I haven't received a notice yet.

Exclusives have not been shipped yet. Regulars have been hitting other retailers.
