I got her this past week, and she is really nice, love the sculpt of the face, and the pose, even though a bit awkard in pics, in person works well.

Unfortunately I had a slew of problems, chipped boot, scratches and unfinished paint on the stockings, paint rubs on the arms, an indent on the back of an arm than covered up with just paint. And the nose has some excess material on the edge of the nostril that looks like boogers. Waiting on a response.

I liked how the stockings weren't all black, like some pics showed, and the face looks really good, both paint and sculpt!

I can't believe no one has done a custom off the Ms. Marvel PF. Even a retro version of her outfit would be AWESOME.

I wanted to do a ms marvel custom, but sold her as she was going for too much. I don't think many would buy a $700+ statue to make it something else, for me if I were to sell it there would be very little profit.

I did get close to someone commissioning me to do one of Wonder Woman, but haven't heard anything....good news is I think he has been on vacation, fingers crossed!

Got her now, have some paint issues on her leg, arm and some scratches too + the sword is broken, asked for a replacement.

Do the braids fit 100% completely into the head easily? I had to force them inside (yes I put them into the correct position ). Maybe someone can take some close up pics and post them?

But she's REALLY looking gorgeous.

I have to go get her. She's sitting at the local FedEx waiting for her ransom to be paid. Customs tore me a big one this time!

Mine don't fit fully in but it's not noticeable from the display angle and I didn't want to force them and risk causing damage.

Just opened mine, exclusive #59. Amazing dynamic statue, and face sculpt is a good likeness. Several scratches on the legs, but I can overlook them. Serious problem with the pony tails though, don't fit in receptors, and paint chipping. Hopefully they will offer a replacement pony tails.

The pony tails kind of bother me, I can't seem to put them in 100%
