It looks like a rather fragile piece?

They may end up having the arm as a seperate peice like what they did with Katana or 2nd gen Black Canary.

And then you would just attach the arm using magnets.

That would be awesome. In any case, I think I'll take my chances... I still regret passing on the original Catwoman Bombshell and I was hoping they'd give her the "Deluxe" treatment like they did with Harley and WW. This is not exactly what I had in mind by "Deluxe Catwoman" but I do kinda ship "BatCat" so it pleases me

Saw this pic on Instagram. Posting it here because the variety of statues let's us see different lines/scales compared to each other.

I don't collect Bombshells (all of the ones released in the first wave seemed to come broken for my local shops so I was always scared of the structural quality of the pieces) but I love the artist style of the pieces. I really like how that Bombshell Flash looks. That has been one I have been considering picking up for a while now even though I don't have any others.

I can only speak for my own experience, but no issues thus far for me. Any pieces that have fine or thin parts (hair is a common one I see) are susceptible to chipping or cracking.

This particular statue has easily broken hair despite the use of wires.

90% of the time on the secondary market if there is minor damage it seems to be hair chips. It doesn't seem to be specific to any particular line of figures.

I have 7 bombshell statues and all of them are undamaged. Since I'm not in NA, I was thinking it might have to do with local shipping there.
