I contacted SS today, and want to see how they?d like to proceed before I post review pics.

Fortunately the upper torso is a separate piece, so I?m hoping they can simply replace it.

We?ll see.

Here are the defects. Tell me what you guys think. Im not a super nitpicky person. But unfortunately all of this is right on the front chest and belly. And for the price of the piece, I?d like a good one.
I'd ask for replacement.

That?s what I?m leaning towards, but the only issue I have with that is that the Poison I received is perfect. And being that they are numbered the same, I?m guessing they?ll have me ship BOTH back.

Idk, never had a dual numbered statue before.

I?m hoping they?ll just send a replacement Torso for Hugo and call it a day.

They emailed that they?re reviewing it, so hopefully I?ll know soon.

If it?s a credit or replacement, I?ll take the replacement. Probably even if I have to ship both back.

But with the luck I?ve had with this set thus far, I?ll probably get some wonky eyes or broken hair.

Defect aside, I have some high praise to give these pieces.

Hopefully Sideshow will come through for me.

Yeah they are bit wonky but can't really expect to get much better from this stuff.

Back away and zoom in. Getting that close makes them look super walleyed. If you still don't like it you can tell sideshow and see if they agree. They have limits on what they accept as a variance vs a defect.

I hear you, it's a frustrating decision for collectors anytime there's an issue and a bit of an oddity here with numbers matching pieces like that.

I hope sideshow takes care of you.

Send me the defective torso! I may not be able to afford Hugo, but I can put his floating body on display!
