It's actually hard to tell, which is a good thing as either there is a seam and it's well covered, or there isn't and it's just a detail line.

Yeah, I was sure that neck area was detachable, but now I have no clue. I want to order this piece so bad.

I never noticed a seam when I saw it at SDCC. I wasn't looking for one, but I walked around that whole statue since it was on an end cap display, and it looked like it didn't have seams.

I wish there was an unboxing. I'd also like to see how large the box is.

I’ve been eyeing this piece, but I’m not to familiar with IS quality control on the larger side. The only thing I can see is the damaged 1/3 hawkman statue. I seem to recall a few collectors having issues. Also I’ve heard of a lot of breakages from the 1/4 punisher. Anyone else have a better insight?

I bought Punisher off Amazon. There was a broken gun piece that was in the duffle bag. Probably damaged in shipping. Otherwise no complaints. I heard the 1/3 Hawkman had some issues though.

Got my tracking for Daredevil. Can’t wait.

I have the Iron Studios 1/3 Wonder Woman and she's amazing. Granted, the fabric cape was a bit cheap, but that stays in the box. The paint job is gorgeous (minus a little drabness on the base) but otherwise it's a great piece. This Daredevil piece looks wonderful from the few pics we've seen so far.

I think the reason Iron Studios issues stand out more is because they don't make a lot of large (1/4, 1/3) statues so when one of those has problems it becomes a really big deal. With an edition size of 600 and this being a universally praised sculpt this won't last long if there aren't widespread issues. Even though I'm not really ready to get this now I think I'm going to have to pull the trigger soon. I'd rather get it from SS than try to bring one in from overseas although I might get lucky with a seller on ebay.

Not my video, but here's a video.

The head is removable.
