That is a bit much. Usually, there is only taxes on the statues and depending on the province it can be costly but not that costly.

Easily, as long as you have the height ~23". She doesn't take up much horizontal room at all. She currently doesn't fit inside my Stuva, because the peg doesn't sit completely flush, so it's creating a slight height increase. My Stuva (single) is 22 7/8, so I am hoping that once it's corrected, she will fit perfectly. Gamora AND Angela will also fit in the same cube, just how it's displayed in the prototype pics. Can't wait!

These are the best pics I've ever seen of ANY premium format since I started collecting them! WOW!

What kind of camera/lens do you use?

She is astonishingly flawless, and photos don't do justice to how dynamic and dimensional she is.

As for the practicalities, the assembly tolerances on mine were pretty tight - not a bad thing, but the peg inserts just took some mild persuasion. Other than that, she is as you see her below... If you are getting this, prepare to be amazed :-) Enjoy!

Paint job on the ex portrait looks bad. Sideshow always messing up with the black outlines.

Nah, it's meant to be shadow, so it's supposed to look like that. EX head looks pretty clean (that's my pic)

Some good photo's being posted. Some bringing out my hypercritical eye

Hairline paint app could be better (too much side stroke)
Lips not very symmetrical (maybe they never were (on the proto))


Lips look better in this shot:
