Thanks for the empathy, everyone.

I liked it quite a bit actually. My woman and I both enjoyed it very much. It isn't one of my top favorites flicks ever created, but I will most assuredly watch it again at some point.

Since seeing the movie, Rocket it now my favorite of the bunch. Not only is her character extremely charismatic and lovable, but she is hot as a the Dickens. Yowza!

Contacted EE to see if they have any replacements...we'll see what they say before I decide what to do. Of all the statues to come damaged, just had to be this one!
Ouch! That's a real pain in the ass. Sorry to hear it, doc.

To add to that, there was basically no glue on the straps (the ones in the middle) of the sheath so they were loose and also came off.

Pretty much all the problems came from the sheathed area of the statue. It's nothing that I couldn't fix if I had to but I'd rather just get a replacement if any are available.

Glad you liked it mate. I still haven't watched the extended edition on BD so may watch it again today.

That really does suck mate . . . As you said, of all the statues to arrive damaged.

Her acting was probably the best of the 5, and I don't like that many women with short haircut but she pulled it off well.

I doubt it, I'm hoping they (either EE or GG) kept a couple sitting back in case of damaged ones but I know it's unlikely.
