Such a bizarre experience. Can you follow up with the manufacturer?

Yes, I get that- but it’s an odd choice given the plastic hair. A show accurate skirt or adora parts would have been more welcome to me at least.

She looks great! But ... why does it seem like she comes with SO MUCH LESS than Heman? They couldn't squeeze an Adora outfit and head in there? She reminds me of the 2016 SDCC Shera by Mattel- maybe I should just dig that one out. Also- why "battle axe COMB" - this doll has plastic...

Thanks for the comparison- the colors on the ebay one definitely are completely faded and washed out. Fortunately, that kind of "works" for the pajama pants... lol

Yeah actually steer clear of that sweater the Chinese seller has- the picture he has up does not appear to be accurate. Check out the photo included with the above post- the sweater looks amazingly terrible. Which in a way, makes me feel better otherwise I could have just built my own...

$39 was definitely steep for pants. Less than $250, but still kinda ridiculous. If you'd like to print and sew your own, just upload the pattern onto spoonflower- adjust to the right size- and print a test swatch for $5. onto spoonflower and print. Sewing this style of pants would be so...

I ordered this one: T-Shirt for PTGTOYS PT-8601 BOYKA Fighter 1/6 Scale Action Figure 12'' | eBay It's more blue than Purple but I think a bit of Rit dye (which I already have) will bring the purple color up. If it looks a bit muddy, all the better. It's also just a REALLY easy design...

I thought about the shorts- but they are so basic, not perfectly show accururate either- so it seems like any plaid shorts would work... I've debated the sweater, but at that point I may as well get that rainman head too and have another entire figure.... It really is too bad Sideshow...

Looks great. I ordered those Aztec pants from ebay too - along with the robe and other shoe feet. That same seller has a more show accurate sweater too. Ridiculous. I was also looking for a decent purple v-neck "ken" or action figure shirt- but maybe I'll just get a white one and dye it...

Thanks- I agree, the pipe helps a lot. I think this sculpt must have been made with the pipe in mind. Otherwise it comes across as a bit grim. When smoking, he doesn't look "angry" he just looks contemplative.

Well, I'm very glad now that I cancelled with Sideshow and re-ordered from Asmus. Took 4 days to get here- and may have arrived sooner but for the holiday weekend. Yay! X marks the spot by Galacticatt, on Flickr

Don't forget the Jem Roadster (vintage Rolls). It looks pretty cool when painted. Also, those dolls were a LOT bigger than Barbie- so there is more space/it's a better scale. Here's someone else's custom showing scale a bit: photo from: Custom Action Man /Hasbro German Staff car

I had a similar issue from OneSixthOutfitters. My Aragorn was missing a dagger and a strap was broken. I suspected he must have been a return or something. It's not like this guy was in high demand anywhere. They said they were sold out so could not help me but could give me a discount on a...

Most often what happens is the package just SITS at the distribution center one town over for 10 days, 14 days... it is very frustrating. Apparently they are short drivers in Seattle :(

Nooooooo I cancelled and ordered through Asmus. I didn't even lose my deposit since he is on backorder apparently. I wonder how late he will actually be? Looks like Smeagol will be late too. Seems like Asmus is shipping these out pretty fast (although FedEx is pretty hit and miss in my area)

I'm not convinced. Don't get me wrong, I like Neca, I have their Gargoyles- have looked at their TMNT - but I don't think you get "just as many accessories, just as or more detailed". The level of detail doesn't look even close to comparable to me. But lets take Neca Batman. He is $124...

I got this girl because I've always wanted a wasp-girl.... She did not disappoint. Lots of details, and doesn't fall apart constantly like those Max Factory figures... there is a blue version around that you can still find at various places, although most seem to have marked her up a bit...

Prices seem to be increasing across the board- every company. Due to shipping and production costs in China. My guess is that the smaller the company, the higher the prices just due volume. At any rate, I just want the Heman, Battle Cat- and Shera, if she ever makes it.

I guess stuck on a container. Or waiting for a container. All of my preorders for everything in the world, are a few months late.
