The front of the hair is, and works great, seems the horns could have been as well, I also wouldn't mind different materials being used, I have a few statues that used PVC and they have a little give on the small pieces and unless you pick it up you will never notice just looking at it, I've contacted sideshow and I'm sure they will help me out, but I'd like to end with the positive, this is the 1st PCS statue I've owned and the 1st 1/3 scale, well both blew me away, the statue is enormous and the paint is really great, awesome job on the sculpt, and paint, makes me really feel good about the Dejah, and hoping a Red Sonja is coming in this line with hopefully Mark Newman sculpting, and I'm definitely a new fan of 1/3 scale, it's a space eater, but the level of detail is just so great I think it's my favorite scale now
sorry to see you've got issues with her Atlantisatdawn but as you say hopefully SS can help you out.
she is a bit gorgeous though isn't she...

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

Thanks Lonewolf! Yes it's just unbelievable, the size is awesome, the paint is just as good as any piece I have, the breaks were disappointing, I'm waiting to see what sideshow tells me, I dont wanna send it back, but gonna need a few replacement pieces

Well we now have a pretty good presence from PCS with Matt here, so there's always another avenue if all else fails.

Yeah exactly, I think sideshow will help me, they have always been good about it, I could honestly glue this stuff, the wing tip being the easiest, but since this thing cost with shipping almost $1600 I'm hoping I dont need to glue pieces, I do understand a wing tip breaking, it's not the first statue I've had this happen, but the fence should have had more packaging around it than just the styrofoam, and the head should have been secured a little better from the factory, if the head didn't have the horns it would have been packaged fine, but any movement with those can lead to breaks, I'll update my photo's when sideshow gets back with me

I had a few pieces of foam in the box to help secure the parts.

Yours looks like mine, I did wonder why the head wasn't taped down like the other stuff? But like I said, I'm not to worried, sideshow and PCS are both good companies, so I'm sure they will help me and seeing how good this is makes me excited for future PCS stuff!!!

Me too, I've read the possible Red Sonja, that's the only one I've heard, but plenty of great comic ladies they could add!

Given the price of this thing its packaged like crap guaranteeing breaks. I think most who buy this thing will have a break. Pieces are not held in place properly. A wing talon, a horn, and the fence were broken on mine. Plus I got a paint blemish on the face of all places! Her skin isn't flawless. Got another blemish on the breast.

The paint for the skeleton (you can see a sloppy brush stroke for a rib) and grass are crap. The wings are very well done followed by the body. You're going to have to use a hair dryer on the fence to get it in.

Do you guys think the flaws on her skin are worth sending the whole thing back for exchange? Big Bad Toy Store must love me. I got terrible luck getting statues from them.
