Got mine and set her up on my desk, and her arms fell off. Thankfully they didn't break, but the magnets fell out for both of them. Gluing them back in was a major pain, because the two in her torso/shoulders that fell out, are forcing each other back out by magnetically repelling one another in the bust itself. I had to glue one in, wait for it to cure, then glue the other by holding it in place with a plastic brush handle until it set up. But I am left to wonder if they will just sit there repelling one another for eternity and may re-push them out again. I really loathe spending $100+ to receive defective items. But the seller is sold out, so I can't get a replacement for that price now either, so I'm stuck with this one. Both this and the Ahsoka bust from Gentle Giant I just got, had serious design flaws and damage, that I just had to repair right out of the damned boxes. (The Ahsoka bust's lightsabers broke at the ends you insert into the handles. They tried to reinforce them with a clear string, almost like fishing wire, inside the blades, and it didn't bond at all, so they just broke off the ends. Frelling hell man.)
