I'd imagined the special would have a more complex paint app for the extra Yen, but it just seems to be paler and have more highlighting?
It has a definitely more complex paint job

you are getting the special version right ??

Stab in the dark, but any chance of picking up the unpainted kit from anyone here or online?

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Well I finally received my Special Version and typically for my luck it's damaged

The tail is broken off at the base - easy fix - but the dome is broken off too, and there's a massive scratch across it that's just not repairable. There's also an odd blemish in the finish of the dome that's also not fixable. These must have been done prior to shipping.

I ahd a bad feeling about this one ever since we saw the early packaging. Sano makes great statues but the difficulty seems to lie in getting them to people in one piece!

So now I guess it's time to contact HS and see what the replacements procedure is. Hope I don't have to send it back!

Damn it so sorry to hear it came damaged
They will send you a replacement for sure but you'll have to send it back...but only after you receive the replacement one!

Keep us posted.

Mine was damaged too Robo. tail broken off at the base too. Easy fix and I preferred to keep as I really didn't want to roll the dice again with a replacement, yours definetly needs replacing though and sorry to hear.

That sucks! Maybe this will teach Roswell to use magnets for the limbs. So they can be shipped separate from the main body. Which will mean safer packing.

Yea, shipping the arms and tail, even the head separately could prevent a lot of damages and replacements.
