So, I got her yesterday and I love her! Unfortunately the vines that wrap around Ivy look nothing like the prime 1 video on their YouTube unboxing (which I’ve included a picture of for comparison). Honestly I may just leave them off anyway.

I’ll have pictures from my actual camera soon, but for now here’s what I took with my iPhone

Also I didn’t plug the 2 big tree things all the way for my pictures, but it held together. I fixed that this morning but I didn’t see it until after all my picture taking.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Congrats!! You have to get the hair dryer out and slowly bend the vines to the correct positions. It will take roughly 10-15 minutes to get them right but its worth it.

I had to use a blow dryer to get the vines positioned the way I wanted. It wasn't that hard and did not take all that long.

How are you shaping it with a blow dryer? Won’t it break after being heated?

The heat makes the vinyl (not polystone) bendable allowing you to reposition it as you see fit. Once it cools it keeps it shape.

I could not have said it better myself. That's exactly what I did.

Thank you! I’m going to use your picture as reference!

Also, I broke one of the vines that plugs into her (on your picture it’s the part of the vine near the one that’s sculpted onto her ankle) but I’ll try to glue it back on. If I can’t glue it right I have brown paint I can use. I’m not to bothered by it since it was my fault.

So, most of these were before I tried to fix the vines. I still haven’t glued the broken vine together but I don’t really care.
Anyway, here she is! I took over 180 pictures, but this is all I’m posting for now.

Next order of business, take out all 4 of my 1/3’s for a big group photo! (That would be the OG TDKR Batman, Arkham Knight Catwoman, Huntress, and now Ivy)
