Greymane + Saurfang Blizzard Legends collection

Just wanted to make a thread for these two particular pieces. They came pretty much like a combo so I think its fine to keep them in one thread.

Just got a notification that mine were shipped today. I will try to get some good quality pics up when they come.

Said I wouldn't buy these, but could be tempted. Interested in a review!

Just got mine, I don't think they look like little cheap pieces at all. I mean, they're not what we are used to, but I like them a lot!

So I got my statues today. I love them for what they are. Boxes look good, packaged nicely. They come in one piece, no assembly. They weight very little 1-2 lbs at most I'd say. They statues feel sturdy, but their base is like a hollow plastic, which does feel a little cheep, but the statues themselves feel fine. I have some pictures to compare to a 16oz bottle for size, then the other pictures are just flaws with the statues that I see. There are flaws in both...

Saurfang - I like him better than Greymane, just looks better on the eyes. The flaws I see with him is there are some pain issues like the brown shoulder where you can see green coming through. There are outlines of glue around the spikes on his shoulder armor, there are some issues with the pain on the base/rocks as you can all see in the pictures. There are some more issues that are small and my phone cam will not pick up.

Greymane - Feels like there are less flaws on him then Saurfang (maybe because its darker color??). He also feels sturdy, but all of his appendages are more flexible, feels like a different construction material than Saurfang. Flaws that I see of him (and pics) are the base has paint issues, and at the base of the foot, there are finger prints that are visible in a light blue color. ANd then other small pain issues that cannot be seen on phone.

So these are what $55 each. I have never bought statues of this type and for this price so I do not know what to expect. I'm a Warcraft fan so I am biased towards these statues. They have some problems, but I did not notice until I started looking. I love them and I feel that they are pretty perfect for what they are. I don't mind the flaws I seen, like I said I only saw them when I was looking. I will buy more if Blizz continues to make these. But I hope again, they don't stop making their high quality ones.

I wonder if other people will have the same type of quality control issues that I have, or is it just me and I should be asking for replacements? So if someone else who has these could let me know too.

Let me know if anyone wants pics or anything else.

Thanks for the great review HowToLitho101. It's a shame about some of the paint issues but I guess for the price you can't complain, but the instances where they haven't let the paint fully dry is pretty severe. It has tempered my want for them a bit though.

Not sure I'll pick it up as it'll end up costing me $75 USD by the time I pay for shipping and whatever else... I think I'd rather put that towards a premium statue.
