Totally agree?she?s just a perfect representation of Ivy. For all of you thinking of getting her regular version from SSC, I hope she goes on a daily deal so you can get an awesome statute at a great price!

From all your photos she looks really good and I agree on the paint app, it's fiiting for a video game character. I doubt this will go on sale here in Germany, but you never know. Faye Valentine did, but I passed on her. Even a 30% discount on SSC will unfortunately be "useless" due to the shipping costs for 1/4 stuff (plus taxes and custom fees).

Wow?even a 30% discount is negated by taxes and fees?that?s horrid! I felt a bit of that when I had PCS Chun Li shipped to Canada (tail end of the pandemic border lockdown); she was technically $0 as I used RPs and thought only the shipping would be a bit higher even though I?m close to the border. They dinged me at 100% retail value for taxes and customs so I?m never doing that again!

Unfortunately, yes. I've had multiple in-stock 1/4 pieces in my cart already and shipping for those is always in the 120-200 range. Put roughly 20% taxes and custom fees on top and the discount is gone^^

Just got mine yesterday. They had the whip sword folded in such a way that the metal bits (the parts that aren't supposed to bend) were warped and curved. I had to use a heat gun on them and bend them straight.

Other than that (and a gem that apparently didn't have any glue on it) I really like this piece. I paired it with my other battle babes, looks great! ^.^
