The head would not wobble if the peg was in tact (not broken).

Get that glue on Amazon. Any certain one by that company and just put a Dab on there. U think that does the trick?

Agree. This break won't even be noticed when glued.

Anyone else has these flaws or am I just paranoid?

Seems like there's an inconsistency here on the clothing. Also I have these texture inconsistencies on the face that causes a redish line.

I dread to think how you might react if you were to receive a 1/4 from Sideshow
You might need 100+ arrows

You can usually tell apart a brand new collector from everyone else from the level of their critiques. As those either don’t last beyond a year, or they learn to accept it, unfortunately. But then again, these are JND pieces, and they’re supposed to be perfect….

I remember moving from Hot Toys to premium formats and the whiplash on QC was terrible.


In 10 years of collecting and hundreds of pieces, I’m not sure I’ve ever received a statue that came in absolutely pristine.

Singuy should be happy Catwoman did not arrive with the head snapped off.

True.

I’m wondering if JND would ever consider having the headsculpts connected via magnet and pegs, so that they can ship separated during transit. As this isn’t the only piece which I’ve read about heads breaking off during shipping.
