He's amazing, unfortunately I did have an issue. There is a chip on his right glove. I sent in a replacement request so hopefully I can get it replaced.

I mean, how the h*ll hard is it to visually inspect each part before it gets boxed up? Seems pretty d*mn simple to me. I'm mine arrives with no issues.
I honestly don't know what's going on with thier QC. It really is hit or miss with SS. I understand some pieces are gonna be duds but in my case it seems like they didn't even try to assemble the damn thing before they sent it out. The freaking arm rest doesnt even fit the throne lol. Just seems odd to me.

In any case it appears most people are getting acceptable pieces, at least from what I've seen on this board. I expect a long journey ahead until I get this sorted. Such a pain having issues with a statue this large.

Hopefully yours comes in an acceptable state. Best of luck.

My 17.5" rotating roundtable is ideal size for this. Nothing hanging off and not too big. Rotates well on test run.

Received #44 yesterday. I knew he was going to be a huge statue, but man, it's a night and day difference seeing pictures on the internet, than actually seeing this piece in person. Mine arrived without issues that some people have been reporting. I did notice that something is rattling around inside of the body - I know it's hollow in spots, but was wondering if anyone else has this issue?

Only had a enough time to inspect to make sure he was ok before I had to head back to work.

Dude, pick up the Reg edition at retail on sideshow. Plenty left. I have the EX and while it's dope, it won't be worth the extra you are paying. The Reg edition is perfect!

Awesome you got yours!! I 100% agree. I studied pictures and videos before I got him and I was still not ready. Not even close. As for the rattling, I've heard that from a few people. If it isn't from the result of damage, I wouldn't be concerned. Probably just some additional plaster inside the throne or something.

LEDs shouldn't case any harm. Natural sunlight with UV radiation will breakdown paint though.
