Quick question. Has the broken leg pieces been a mix of EX and regular? Or just regulars?

I forgot to say that I think Sideshow inspected my
Catwomen as it came with obviously attached
cardboard reinforcements on all sides and corners.
It also looks like one section of the container was not
set back as tight as it appears when new.
Not complaining, just saying.Maybe they
should check a percentage of all statue's
that have issues like this.Though maybe
that's hard to do.

Maybe they did. Definitely would be in their best interest to do so when there’s a known issue as it’d save them from eating unnecessary shipping expenses.

I believe all of them came with the card reinforcements on all sides including mine which still came with a broken leg.

Wow,I didn,t know that. it is a heavy box for it's size
though because it's box is quite a bit smaller than
my Prime one Batgirl box and they are very similar
in weight.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I’ve done this several times with pieces just a bit too deep to fit into the stock enclosure.
Hadn’t thought of that, those are great ideas! I might do that with some pieces I already have.
