oh i see. thanks.

statue arrived in excellent condition and looks really good. the dangling shoe laces are a nice touch and the paint apps are great for a production piece. no googly eyes.

however thats just plain dirty false advertising to print on the box that it includes extra pieces like the dog tags and an "exclusive charm." what do they mean by charm? is it an actual physical accessory or just the sex "charm" appeal of the statue? lol. thats pretty creative to use mind games as a marketing tool to fool you into thinking its an actual accesory. i'll keep that in mind since it's a useful trick.

Each of the ladies had a charm (like in a charm bracelet) that was on the necklace with the dogtags. What was shown at SDCC for Lucky was a 5.56 cartridge. I would suggest contacting Gentle Giant customer service (even if you didn't buy it direct) and question why the box says it comes with dogtags and charm when nothing is in the box.

I'm still waiting on mine from Spec Fiction. I guess this statues hasn't made its way through the distributor chain yet.

Here's the photo of the prototype at SDCC. You can get something like this from an Etsy or ebay seller. I bought one from someone Etsy a while back. If you decided to have your own dogtags made, I suggest replacing the serial number with the statue's serial like I did with my Sucker Punch collection.

I emailed GG about the Dog tags a few days ago. No reply.

I think Lucky will be my last statue from GG. It would be my 7th statue but I just don't like how long it takes to releasing there 18" line. Not a fan of the clear acrylic bases also.
