oh i see....thanks for sharing that....i didnt know thats the arrangement

It's my favourite portrait as well and yet that was the portrait that received no love at all, everyone seemed to hate it...go figure

Sounds like they either screwed up then and accidentally sent you a return, or UPS mangled the box so bad they had to repack it. Usually Sideshow does a decent job of replacing the shipper if the original is missing so I would lean that way. Shouldn't be a problem to get it swapped out though, she is well worth the effort.

Yep sounds like they accidentally shipped you one that just got returned....i am sure at 1000 ES they still have a lot of these to ship out as replacements

Yes, that's a good point Stingray.

They did mentioned that the shipper box is only their to protect the merchandise it contains. Which I understand. But using two pieces of boxes to make one huge one, (even though the statue is big) just didn't sit right when I'm sure they could have gotten one box and not create a Frankenstein of a box.
Cause that's what it looked like LOL

I had to return the whole merchandise though, oh well. I'll find out, if my replacement comes in tip top shape.


I agree!!
