Another disappointment...Help anyone?
Well I asked before I bought and was reassured that not having the OG packaging wouldnt matter it would be packaged very well and do not worry....famous last words. Any help on what I need and how to fix this fiberglass would be greatly appreciated.

If you paid via PayPal, you're in a position to get your money back. However, you'll have to pay for return tracking/signed postage.

If it were me (and this is just me mind), I'd try and reach agreement with the seller for a partial refund and just repair it (assuming all the pieces are there).

Yes I already talked to the seller and he will be refunding me for it to an agreed amount I have to wait forr the insurance placed on it to come back. I didnt want to give up the statue so I thought id just repair it as i would be out $100 to ship it back.
What id really like to know is how to repair it. Just glue the fiber glass then place avis or some kind of putty to fill in the little pieces that are missing then a repaint? Whats the best way to go about it?

That's a bummer but I think it's great that you got some money back and made a wise decision on keeping it. That can be easily fixed and it totally doesn't distract from the piece. I think you are on the money with the assessment of how to fix it. That's how I would go about doing it anyway. Congrats man it's an awesome piece and I hope you can display it proudly.
