Does anyone know if it is possible to sharpen the tip of some of these quills (material) ourselves?

With knife you don't keep the smooth round shape. But would it be possible with sandpaper or anything else?

Buy a small file kit. I've used files to widen stubborn key-in holes on bases before, but be careful you don't put to much pressure on them or they'll snap right off! Then wipe down carefully to remove small debris before painting over the tips.

Better bring your A Game! You have to bring the surgeon skills to pull it off.

US customers are receiving shipping quotes well over $1k for the City Hunter (One poor guy has a request for $1784!) Imagine what this will be!

It could be a mistake, mine altered to $388 which is more than enough for a relatively small statue..

Reminds me of the Hot Toys AVP Elder Predator back in the day, poking holes in the head with a soldering iron and gluing the quills in. Good times.

Mine is showing $198 on my order page. But if I place a new order & checkout it comes up at $828.

Just ridiculous.

Then I assume that is what ours will alter to I just added another city hunter to my cart and shipping was virtually the same as my adjusted price is. My Jungle hunter is $248 currently. I'll stop worring about subpar paint now as my order will likely be getting cancelled..... Crazy times.

Yep, same here. It might sound mad but I’d be happy eat their $150 NRD over paying $800+ for shipping.

You don't have to eat the NRD the emails said they will refund the NRD if you cancel.

If you are not satisfied with the above shipping fee, please let us know by replying this e-mail. We will be able to:

hold your order for the time being and wait until the shipping cost is decreased again.

cancel and refund the full amount including the Non-Refundable Deposit

change the shipping method to economy (for US customers only)

*note mine is already economy shipping so the 3rd option is useless for me

Yup. Done the same earlier today, $828.
