Not really sure what's going on here. Paid on the 6th for the replacement head, but no update since then.

Anyone in the US got her yet?

Not yet, I'm expecting mine any day now.

Won my Amy on eBay a couple of days ago, filled the request form an hour later and got an email for payment details the following morning and sent payment. Now it's just a waiting game as to when the replacement head will arrive. I wasn't planning on getting it, but couldn't resist seeing the how much better the new head looked in hand from other members.

I guess I spoke too soon. Head arrived today (March 1). And I'm in the US. Never got a shipping notice, but it did come alright. Looks good too.

 

[Gruff Old Bear]

I have yet to get a shipping invoice. Time to re-send the message again, I guess.

My Amy head arrived in the mail on Friday, so she has made it to Canada. First impressions are good, while not a perfect likeness, it looks a heck of a lot better. The molded hair doesn't seem to have squished the face as much, and I actually like it in profile. I plan to put it on as soon as I can and post some pics, but it's been a while since I got Amy and she's stored in with my other boxes right now. Won't get a chance to look for her until next weekend, then it's new head time.

OK, I've just done the transplant.
Does it make a difference? Hmmm, .... Oh yeah!! It is now an Amy action figure.
The head sculpt is where they should have gone fom day 1. If I were BC, I'd ditch the pics of rooted hair Amy off their site, replace all the figures with the new head and mount a reshoot for the photo selection. Those Amy figures would shift inside two weeks.
I'm impressed with this, and am very pleased with my four BC action figures.

I got my three Amy heads today and I love them. Though it's not a 100% likeness of KG, it sure is 99.9% better than the rooted hair head the figure came with. So thanks BCS for making this happen. Sorry to those fella's for taking a bath with the figure but they came through with flying colors. I know I've been vocal towards them at times but I'm eternally grateful for making this right. So to Mark, Greg, and the others at BCS, well done gentlemen...well done indeed.

Still waiting to receive mine. Hopefully it will get here soon.

I got my "replacement" head on Saturday. It is a rooted-hair head just like the original. Ridiculous. I am waiting for a reply from BCS customer service.

 

[Darklord Dave]

Amy's come along!

And no offense to anyone taking pics - but she looks much better in hand.

 

[SirGor]

Could you please post some pics Dave.

 

[DVD1]

I agree. I'm not the best at taking photos, but I can't take a pic of this figure that I want to post. I really like the way this has turned out. I keep giving it different pistes, and haven't quite got it to the pose I want yet.
Let's just say, it's a figure worth getting now.

Wow, I hadn't realized just how bad that original Amy head really was. Yuck! To say the new one is an improvement is an understatement.
