I just got my Killerbee statue. I notice her thigh looked bigger than SF2 classic and when I measured it from the top, it’s about 2mm thicker. Also found that her peg position is slightly angled differently than the classic base. Anyones notice that difference? I’m also confused why killer bees braid is longer than the classic? Anyone know the significance of why we got 2 different lengths?

On a side note, I can’t believe the seller threw away the bag, the foam corners, silica packs and remove the white gloves from the statue. There was a small paint chip on the hair where the peg braid inserts goes in it. I’ll have to clean and paint over it. I did get $50 refund so $900 USD plus global shipping was ok. Haven’t decided if I want to leave him a feedback or not though.

Why can't people list statues accurately? They just want to sell for as much as possible. See so many auctions listed as Brand New only to read the statue was displayed in a curio.

Statues are too fragile and part of Brand New is you know something hasn't been removed so you know it has less chances of problems.

Regarding the braid length, my guess is they just wanted another distinction between the classic version and the Killer Bee version besides swapping her costume. Comparing the two in the video games (i.e. Super Street Fighter II for classic versus Street Fighter Alpha for Killer Bee) her braids seem about the same length. Artwork, on the other hand, seems to depend on the whim of the artist. I don't think Capcom ever established any "official" braid length. Again, this is just my guess so take it for what it's worth.

Cammy looks great!
No hard feelings, but photo's of statues with the owners pet/pets is not my thing.
Not that i have anything against cats, dogs, birds etc. I prefer cats, followed by lizards
