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

Congratulations! Did you find her easy to assemble?

Thank you.

No serious problems with mine, I follow Sideshows instructions to put her arms into her hands, which are connected to the base, and then her lower half in the center; followed by the tail in the back of the base.

There was a slight misalignment with her lower half, but I gently move the base to the opposite direction and the magnet sucked her right in place.

I picked up the store version and it looks awesome. No problems with her fitting into the base. The arms are aligned as far as I can tell. Put the left arm in first and everything fit into place

Finally took some pics of my store version. Luckily, she arrived with no issues though I had to use some force to work her arms down flush with her hands.

She arrived earlier than expected and I absolutely love her. Incredibly beautiful, photos don't really do the statue justice. This is my first ever Sideshow piece and I'm pretty pleased, the paint application is incredibly neat, the face is perfect. The only slight issue I can see with mine is that the end piece of fin that attaches has a slight mark on the paint. It looks like it was put down on something before it completely dried, or maybe it's some glue residue.

As a side note, anyone know why the attachment photo rotated?

If you used an Iphone to take your picture than that would be the issue. For some reason when taking picture with these phone, it takes it sideways.

Just stunningly gorgeous this piece.

You'll have to open these using photoshop and saving it to desktop. there It will save upright and you can than post that picture.
But here you go.

Here's the scuff on her tail. Unfortunately it's facing towards the front. I think it's glue residue, as I can see the paint underneath. The area towards the magnet is the worst as there appears to be some kind of white fibre stuck to it. When I gently rub it, the small white area changes shape, almost like if you had tissue stuck in it. Am I being too picky with the tail???
