Still no sign of mine, hoping on a good one from the next batch...eventually
I'd very much like this idea. If anyone has already received and returned their Dejah, please post the serial # (it'd be easier if it the serial #'s were posted on the first post on this thread or start a new one). I have one more payment to go and hopefully I won't get a re-packaged Dejah.

I'll be honest with you, mine is only slightly better than either of those. But like I said, due to the design, a small gap in the front like your first one just looks like black/shadow from the choker, and any gap like on your second one is completely shaded in darkness unless you shine a light horizontally on the statue (or flash photography at eye level).

i believe a mix of the hair design and poor key fit play into this gap....if you are willing to play around and sand the neck key or hole you can eliminate the gap....you can also sand off some of the hair that contacts the right shoulder and back to get a better fit on some statues...

The second one I ordered comes in today. And I’m sending the first I got back for a full replacement. Here’s to hoping both this new one and replacement for other are good.
