most customs start at around $600 US plus shipping.

Here are two pics from Alfie Bolanos on Facebook. Looks like the seam is quite minimal, if at all there. Mind you, the distance of this is greater than the images posted here... I'll confirm once mine arrives.

Those pictures do look a lot better...

^^^^ yes, I checked mine again and If I install the head first followed by the cape, there is no neck seam. In my original pictures I had installed the cape first and then the head, which didn't allow the head to sit flush with the body.

Brilliant. I'll assemble mine in this order as well. Thanks for the update.

Out of curiosity, how long did it take for yours to arrive? EMS hasn't shown any updates since the 14th, which I find surprising. Need to figure out when this will arrive so I can make every attempt to avoid having my wife come home to a huge (and heavy) package while I'm travelling for work... These sort of events always end with the "how much did this cost" conversation that I'd like to well-avoid.

If you're not getting EMS updates then the package is already state side. Go to USPS.com and enter your tracking and you'll get the most recent update.

Hopefully this is the case. I'm in Canada, and I know Canada Post is the default once it arrives but they have no updates either. I hate being in limbo.

Uh-oh. I think I figured out a very real issue with the shipping on my Superman statue. I paid a bit more attention to the waybill when tracked through EMS, and it says that the final destination is Colombia, with the most recent update (Aug 14) saying that it's being transferred to an international mail centre there (COBOGA).

The problem: I am in British Columbia. Which is in Canada. It appears that this may have been shipped to an incorrect address. As I remain puzzled as to how a Canadian Postal Code would allow one to ship to South America, I am also trying to remain calm as I await updates from Peter of Xtreem Sculptures. This could be a huge problem.

shoot, sorry to hear. But I am sure he will make it right, one way or another.

Thanks bud. I'm sure it'll all work out in the end with just a minor delay. Hopefully.

EDIT: Peter's on it! Will fix the problem. Great guy.

Looks like this guy turned out fantastic! Congrats to those who ordered. Would love to see him next to the SS PFs.

Here's my quick setup and initial impressions of this piece.



Some QC issues, to be sure, but overall imposing and a great sculpt from Daniel. Bravo to Peter for distributing.
