A couple pages ago I mentioned the misplaced arm band, and how it clearly affected the statue. I haven't had time to follow up with my pictures, but using the pictures provided by statueloverlee it's clear that it was a broad factory issue, and not an isolated issue with mine.
See how at the base of the deltoid, where the arm band should have gone and did go on the prototype, there's an abrupt smooth area with no detail? It's perfectly round, and goes around the entire circumference of his arm. If you touch it it's a smooth area, so there was no sculpting done. In person, up close, it's pretty obvious. A shame.
Deal breaker? No. But a flaw nonetheless.

I replied to you before, this is not a flaw but a production adjustment. Its been moved on every statue.

Well, I'd argue that it's a flaw, since they didn't adjust the sculpt appropriatly but instead decided that a simple band-aid fix was acceptable.

I find this criticism baffling, makes no change in the appearance of the final piece. No one would point it out upon viewing the production piece cold, no one.
Amazing statue, love its size as its big but its not over powering in the room, all the previous PFs still also stand out.

Personally, I don't find it a flaw. Paint drips, chips and cracks are flaws.
That being said, it is different than the prototype. No doubt about that. But, it just doesn't bother me.

Got this in finally! He looks pretty good. Love the ex head and the reg head. Best is to have both options! He's heavy! My shelves will hate that. One chip on the hand. Will contact ss. The art box was torn big and crush on one side. I wished ss would use Steiner brown shippers instead of the paper thin boxes. Why not double box it like they did with leopard lady? That was packed so well by ss. Double boxed! I'm debating if I should ask for a new art box. Mine is damage pretty bad. Other than that his size not too shabby.

You guys! Now that many of us received our Bane, what lights/LEDs do you guys recommend for this piece? Warm white or cool white? I'm not sure which one looks better. Please keep me posted. Thanks!
