Just got my Tarzan vs Gorilla statue... The box is huge but I was surprised at how light it was. I didn't have time to open it tonight but should have it opened tomorrow... I'll post some pictures.

The quality is nice with the exception of a minor paint flaw where his stomach meets his loin cloth, the paint is just a tad sloppy there but it's minor. Otherwise the rest of the statue is pretty flawless paint wise.

The color of Tarzan skin is a bit more yellow then I would prefer but overall it's not bad.

One thing that stands out to me is the apes face, it looks like he had a stroke and the left side of his face has kind of slid down like a stroke patient. One eye is smaller then the other and his teeth are kind of warped as it comes around to the left side plus the one eye tooth is smaller then the other one. I don't know if that was the intent of the artist or maybe a casting flaw. It does seem the prototype teeth are more naturally curved instead of being twisted/warped like on my piece... but since they don't have a really good prototype picture of the front of the apes face it's hard to tell.

This is my first ARH statue, the foam box is really messy but ARH did double box it with foam corner pieces to absorb any shock, I have to give them props for that.

Overall I'm happy with the statue with the exception of the apes face. I'd give it 7/10, had the apes face been more symmetrical I would of gave it 9/10

Looks good man!
Like you said, a little sloppy around the loin cloth but overall looks good and the eyes and faces are done well.

The apes face looks the same as the prototype and this was a criticism at the time, so it is what it is. I think he still looks good though.
