The Snake and girl is in 3 boxes. Conan is in one with two layers.
Strange.... I remember Averone mentioning the Dio comes in three boxes as well..huh, then seems you have different packing because my snake dio came in two boxes.

I got my 3 boxes today, took a peak at the smaller one. Dam that snake is big, and the slave girl looks good also. This is definitely going to be a grail piece in the future. I will assemble this on Thursday night and post some pictures of Conan when done.
looking forward to them! please let us know if conan and the snake line up, pics make it seem like it might be a bit off.
So I got my Conan and some parts of the snake dio and slave girl. These are the few problems I had with mine. I didnt take photos of them but the ex sword and the sheathed sword that goes on the hip were completely bent, but easily fixable. So I just heated them up and straightened them back up.
I received the bases with a couple chips in them. The magnet on the hip for the dagger, (I think it might be the dagger) is weak. One of Conan's boots, I dont know what it is? But Im thinking condensation got onto the boot, dried up and left faded marks on it. The tail end of the snake had styrofoam rubs on it and had rubbed off a bit of the paint. And the biggest thing is that the pegs on conan and the post behind him only go in half way. I'm in talks with Averone right now working to get a replacement on these. But I have to say overall, that this piece is a keeper. Very VERY impressive piece. You can feel the presence that this statue possesses. The paint and shading is excellent. Ill do proper photos of the whole dio when I get those replacements though. I love the ex head and ex sword and will keep those as the default display option. I got the other package today but will be opening tomorrow.
On another note, when I received the two packages, fedex decided to just drop them off in my driveway without any notification. No doorbell ring, nothing. I was completely pissed about that, called and complained about it. Theyre saying that ARH didnt fill out the proper paperwork and declared value, so when that happens, theyre instructed to leave it in the driveway. Who does that? Why would a company such as fed ex leave packages out in the open for prying eyes to contemplate stealing? Not smart.
