I'd post a screenshot from Facebook, but the language is certainly not forum-friendly.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

From what I saw on FB and Instagram etc, the feedback was exactly the same as here (with more colourful language). There's dozens of people screaming bloody murder and claiming they are cancelling or returning. Only one guy is keeping it and he's been telling everybody to stop whining before his even arrived so make of that what you will. I believe Kevdeo is keeping his though as he's already repainting it. That guy can make anything look good. Although looking good isn't the problem with this disaster of a collectible.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Yep. This statue is definitely not doing any better on Facebook.

Just so you know I wasn't making this up. I snapped a few pictures. I've had a few days to compose my thoughts better. I'll dig through the images I took earlier and post a few up in a bit with my thoughts on this as a whole. If I'd done it a before now, my entire post would have been negative and served little purpose, the sad thing is that there are some good things. I'll get into it all later. For now though, have a chuckle at this little gem, it would have made too much sense to use a pencil, or to fully engrave it in deep, large letters on the part that actually glues inside the head. Much better to stick it right on the front of the bust in plain site..
I'm assuming this may be fairly accurate to the total surviving ES number on this products run... It's so care free that it's almost funny.

the story on this thing gets worse by the day. I'm going to venture to guess SS will probably not make the full run on these that they initially planned LOL!!

As posted on Freaks -
Now I know what you mean, I checked mine - I have a "16" too, along with a "31" on the dred next to it, and a "17" and "32" on dreds on the other side . . . and it goes on-and-on-and-on.
Basically, seems like they ALL have numbers, and it just depends on how they have been put in place as to whether you can see them or not.
When they said these were the first dreds sculpted with texture - that was NOT what I thought they had in mind
Once again . . .
