I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I returned it and am getting a replacement.

The end of that umbrella sure does seem to want to be a separate piece pretty badly.

The irony is that they went overboard trying to prevent damage to the rest of that body/umbrella. I was almost surprised the other end of the umbrella wasn't breaking from their protection attempt. The wrap-around they have around the umbrella and the left leg seemed so tight I was scared I was going to break something unwrapping it. Then I noticed the broken piece and didn't need to bother.

I got my replacement and I am wondering if some of these just weren't packaged correctly. This one had a piece of styrofoam under the umbrella handle and everything was secured into place similar to how the top of the umbrella was. I do not recall that from the first. Whatever material they had in that area I recall just slid right off. I had to unwrap some plastic wrap from around the right left and lower umbrella before I could slide that styrofoam out this time.

This worked out better - no damage.

No, it hasn't yet been in-stock. The first batch fulfilled preorders, but there weren't any extras for those who hadn't preordered. So it maintains its "preorder" status.

Sideshow Penguin Premium Format. This is what the title of "Premium Format" means; excellent design with perfect execution.

The sculpt, paint and mixed media are on point with this statue. Sideshow nailed it. I think the only thing that could make this better would be some sort of light up effect in the base to illuminate the translucent resin.

Agreed. A perfect Penguin PF finally realized after all these years.

Even tho not a mixed-media fan, even I had to get this piece. Had to have it.
