Just to be clear then, the ones from HK are labeled differently? Sorry if I'm missing the obvious I'd just rather not make a $350+ mistake.
From videos I've seen, the Hong Kong versions only had that "special edition" sticker on the box. Not sure about the numbers though.

Sideshow mainly distributes to the western market. There's no need for the sideshow labels in hk.
 
Some pictures :)

I believe what's printed on the shippers may be slightly different between HK and Sideshow's stock as well.

Cool. Thanks for the help fellas!
 
I'm not sure about the figure itself, but if we're basing it on what is stated on the shipping crate, it would make sense why a figure directly from HK wouldn't say "Sideshow Exclusive". SSC is just the distributor for primarily the western market, as mentioned.

I think you're good.
 
Question, does anyone else's 43 have loose ankles? It's tough to get mine to stand on his own without bending the knees a certain way. It's not a huge deal but I'm curious if there's a way to tighten them up.

Yeesh, no ankle articulation (MK3).... too much ankle articulation (MK43).

Hot Toys can't get ankles right.

It's like, ankles are to HT, as feet are to Rob Leifeld lol
 
From IG, not mine

I don't know whether to call the 43 too skinny or the 3 too fat...
 
3 looks bad in that pic, birthing hips and a short torso.... looks like a little caveman mark

3 looks like it's molded for a set of tatas like Pepper will be wearing it. :lol Looks terrible but I'll chalk it up to one of the worst pics I've ever seen.
