So what happen with this statue? I finished paying for mine on February 20th and now almost a month later no statue. I only ordered this because they said it was not a pre-order and it would ship right away (after paying for it in 3 months). I sent emails to them and as usual no response.

Hi Morgul,Maybe a month or more ago on ARH Facebook there was a short video explaining what happen. Basically The first Valkyrie was mailed out. It came broken at the glued joints. ARH decided to redo the design and recast a better/more stable Valkyrie. They sold the remaining sets as kits. The statue had some structural issue. I would agree getting one of the kits. The kit sold for a $150. I bought one. Its a beautiful statue. The original cast does have some structural issues. Some of joints don't line up and the statue doesn't fit stable on the base. They did the right thing and start from scratch and build a better design Valkyrie. The original would have a high chance of coming apart at the joint while in transit to the collector.
The kit takes a lot of time to fix and paint. I spent way to many hours. They made the right choice. Any updates on the new recasting gotta contact Spencer. He's working hard lately to get back to as many people as possible.
Good luck

Thanks for the really informative update. I haven't had the time to follow all the news here on this.

Just Fyi i had started to post some pictures of the shipped parts broken earlier in this thread. Spoke with Arahom few times, he is working on the redesign. I have been working on "fixing" the ARH sent Valkyrie that i have on hand. They are allowing me to keep this one and going to send another once redesign is finished.

That's pretty cool because now you have a statue you can just toy around with... or pull bits off for other statues!!!

I keep thinking this is Arhian and I just realized it is a Valkyrie thread.
