Alex is a great statue. And mine has some pretty nice shading. While he's much lighter than Sagat, he's not supposed to be as tan.

But the absence of the painted vein work really hurts. After seeing that type of paint app on Sagat it's difficult to go back.

On the plus side he fits in well with the older PCS statues that didn't have as many skin tones. Even with the missing vein he probably has the 2nd best pair app in the PCS lineup.

(Of course I love my repainted Chun Li, but she's not showing much skin)

Bottom line:

Alex is an amazing statue. And it's equally amazing that he came our as good as he did with the Junk Factory that worked on him!

From breakage to paint app, (to botched shipping) this PF was nearly doomed.

Thank goodness I've got him in one piece.

I agree --- the one thing the factory did nail was his portrait (in regards to paint, the shading is perfect)

My portrait is still incomplete because pcs still hasnt sent me my hair.... i was also one of the last people on this forum to receive their piece from pcs and it still isn't complete. Pcs is a small company but even my patience disappears when they take this long to follow up. Site problems where you can't order a piece because of traffic or being oversold is a tech problem but this is just negligence.

Hi BarrelCannon,

Did you also send back your magnetic hair to PCSC to get repaired / repainted and have you got yours back.

I've sent mine and still not got word on the repair and if they've been sent out?

No, for me the hair was actually missing from the box when I got my Alex. It finally got shipped to me this past week. It was an unnecessarily long wait, but I'm glad my piece is finally complete.

Bumping because this seems like a good deal for people who missed the statue
