They're a bit loose. The magnets need to be stronger.

Mine were fine. The magnets pulled the arms into place. I don't feel like I will have any issues with them falling.

The arms attached on mine with no issues at all - I don't anticipate any issues whatsoever with them.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I just was browsing on Ebay, and have to call this out as petty.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/ALICE-IN-WO...wAAOSwHBZdbsr3

600 dollars just because it's got the number 1 on the bottom, for real?

Now if there were only like 12 of these statues and they were all hand made and that was the first one to be made, then I could see it being more valuable..

But since SS is mass producing 6000 of these statues, the edition size written on the bottom of it is meaningless... not to mention they just randomly grab a statue and start writing numbers on the bottom of them, as far as anyone knows his #1 could of been the 3000th statue put together

At least, for me, she is the number one of this line.

...and two years from now we'll be saying "I remember when you could get Alice for *only* $600 on Ebay"... More than any other statue I own, regardless of genre, people who know absolutely nothing about Sideshow or superhero statuary go completely nuts when they see her... This piece is transcendent in a way that nothing else Sideshow has done is... I think the closest statue in terms of universal appeal is the Campbell Mary Jane comiquette, and that still goes for over double its original price at auction... I honestly think people will be happily paying $700 - $800 for the privilege of owning her in 3 - 4 years...
