So have the rosy cheek been toned down? Was it only the first batch that had the stronger pink? I am STILL waiting on BBTS. Coming up on a month since I got the "expected to be in our warehouse in 10 days" email. :gah:

But if I get one with rosy cheeks being toned down a bit (so I don't have to do it myself) I'll be happy with the wait. I am hoping they get it on it's way to me in this coming week....
 
After delayed shippment, wrongly shipped shippment, delayed shippment again, I finally got mine aaaaaand the eye is not straight. One eye is not completely centred. I assume this is not a valid point to get another one right? Has anybody experiences with this kind of stuff? I really wanted to print the head ball joint as soon as he got here, but this journy was a complete let down on every step and I kinda lost interest in it. 20201228_131444.jpg
 
Honestly I can predict the next gen batch receivers will be super disappointed, I absolutely love the rosy cheeks, I'm thinking of selling mine as cash is a bit tight right now, but because of the cuteness I might as well keep it

The reason I predict the disappointment:

If this is the next batch, rosy cheeks will definitely increase in value once the fiasco hits the fan

I doubt it considering most people are removing the excessively rosy cheeks.

You can't make up your mind. You complained about how the production version turned out quite a lot and said you would cancel. Then you changed your mind and started complaining about how long it was taking Sideshow to ship yours. Now a couple weeks later you are talking about selling....

Googly eyes are one of my pet peeves, but not seeing a huge problem here. One eye looks a bit rolled inward, maybe. U could try gently pushing to better align like one board member did. I've seen worse for this piece. Of course, after SSC's hype, every one of these should be flawless.:cool:

Sorry to hear of the shipping problems:(. December shipping seems to be a mess anyway - I was happy to wait until later to avoid it. Couldn't pay him off anyway. Maybe in January.

Yes, one is rolled inward, and pretty heavily in my opinion. The eyes are so important. I already tried moving/pushing it, but there is no way of moving it. The thing is, the chinese factory workers dont care, I get that, they are getting payed so little to move as fast as possible. But I dont want to carve out all the fom from the head. Chances are the eye is full of foam and no way of turning it anyway. So I will leave it as is and just modify the paint and pose.
 
He's home! Absolutely love this little guy!

If mine doesn't look this good, when I can afford to pay off - especially the eyes, back it goes. ALL of them should look this good.
 
This took me quite some time to get together, but I finally finished my Mando costume :) So I took some pics and recorded a video of me wearing it and have the Child in it for some of the shots :) Thought I'd share!

Happy New Year by the way!

Thank you so much! I'm super happy with it :) Although I am already well on the way to upgrading it to a S2 version lol
Jetpack, spear, dark saber and S2 armor all are in the works :)
