The fabric top looks iffy. One side is lower than the other. The left and right yellow parts are wider on one side compared to the other. I just got a bad one. The rest of the piece looks fine. I've thought about turning it.



They suggested pulling the top downwards. That fails to work. It appears to have been joined together poorly (one side higher than the other). The amount of unpainted resin section on show looks terrible.

Compare it to this one which belongs to 000hjs000


The lower left and right yellow curves are the same height.
The left and right yellow parts running up the front are the same width.

I've been asked to smash a part before they send replacement parts from Sideshow. Sometimes they don't though which leads me to suspect it depends on the nature of the defect. if it's a crack I don't think you have to but if it's just a messed up paint application I think they make you smash it.

The ones they ask you to send back are ones they think they can pass off onto another poor sucka

It is a defect but no a serious one like paint or damage. I wont hold it against you if you want a replacement but if the statue were mine , I would leave it like that

I can see it, he should have taken a picture straight on but they aren't even. It's like if you buttoned your shirt wrong and now the sides are lopsided except it's sown together.

Agree with dao, it's not the best pic to highlight the issue but I can see it as well. That would bother me.

Hope you can get it worked out shaun.

Believe it or not I decided to let Rambo be my last piece from PCS.

I’m using the credit to grab Hot Toys John Wick and I picked up a $275.00 9.8 comic that I’ve wanted for years.

This statue appears to be gorgeous, I may pick it up down the road.

Believe me, it was a tough decision to let it go. The only 1/3 Street Fighter remaining in my collection is Battle Ryu, as I recently sold my last Akuma.
