Really? The large majority of people here have had some kind of issue.
Visit the Supes, MJ & Gwen threads. Almost nothing but happy customers.
This item definitely has a substantial amount of issues.

I think people's quality expectations increase with increasing price. Since Apocalypse cost more than those statues mentioned, people scrutinize it much more.
While there have been some issues with Apocalypse, moisture and some cracking, the majority of complaints in this thread are nit picking IMO. No statue is going to have 100% crisp sharp paint lines. If you can't see it at a normal viewing distance of ~ 4 feet, then it isn't an issue IMO. People always complain that the production pieces don't match the prototype, but I have never seen a 100X zoom on a prototype paint job. If we did, I bet we would see similar mistakes (paint smudges, bleeding, etc) there too.
Totally disagree...you should expect clean lines, crisp paint, etc. Idk who set the bar that smudge lines and whatnot is acceptable...but it really isnt. And this is coming from someone who has a PERFECT Apoc EX sitting @ home right now. Im not 'complaining' per se, but understand that people shouldnt accept sub-par work...by any means...coming out and saying its never gonna match the proto is a bad way to judge your piece imo
Will never match the professionally painted proto but should look good with no bubbles, cracks, smudges etc...
Unconditionally agree on the cracks and bubbles. Those are unacceptable.
Conditionally agree on the smudges,etc part. For those, my rule is if you can't see it with the naked eye from normal viewing distance, then it isn't an issue. If you can see it, then it should be replaced.
I wouldn't say the problems people have been posting here are minimal. Ski had one if the best looking Apocs I've seen and he even had a small blemish in his pics. That type of issue I could live with. The majority of these statues have been really bad. Let's not pretend that this run has been consistent of a couple small blemishes guys. These issues have been on almost every single statue and they are worse then the average SS blemish
