don't start me off andy:lol,I'm seriously thinking of getting this elsewhere,as I've heard nothing for the last 10days from my seller:mad:.
I asked him to contact me regarding his issue with his payment transfer in FEB!!,then it was ''i'll pay via paypal''.
yes I'm gonna love this,but I'm in the not liking the eyes dept,and a repaint maybe on the cards(as may tinkering with the arms)
regarding the ''damage to the base'' someone did post(not sure if it was on youtube) about the little bits on the base being brittle-ish and one had broken.........or I can not get this and your collecting days are over:rotfl
looks like goodshipped has this in stock now

What do u think of the painted Bangs and side burns SAB?

Honestly, I really like it. Our figures so far essentially have a hair 'helmet', clearly separated from the sculpt (and the headsculpt here is more like a figures than a standard polystone statue). I like this way of blending it in. Taking a pic of the sculpt at close range obviously show it up but I think i blends well overall with the statue on the shelf.
 
SAB, are the iris in the eyes all black - or do they actually have a colour ?

I am happy that you love this by the way :)

Thank you!
I'll check the iris's tonight. Can't say off the top of my head.

And the answer is ...... I don't know sorry :D
I really tried to look from different angles but even under bright light its hard to tell. The eyes are reflective and have a glass look (they look quite real) so it makes it difficult to see if there is any color. They are either so dark I can't tell or they are black....
 
...and here I have made an attempt to have him look slightly to the left (his left that is... hehe...)

Hi
Are the eyes repainted or just readjusted position?
Any tutorial how to do it?
Thank you
 
Repainted, I think it does look great especially the positioning.
Bruce Lee had incredibly dark eyes and in regular light you would never see the brown in them. I've looked at several close up lighted shots on-line and can see a tinge of dark dark brown only in some and most they look black.

For example...

Can you tell me if the eyes are all black - and if so, will it help to maybe repaint the iris ? :)

The eyes are really dark but not totally black although they look black. I used a magnified glass with LED bright light and saw that there is an iris with dark brown star like pattern around it as seen in normal pupils.

And the answer is ...... I don't know sorry :D

Try and do what I did SAB and should be able to see the iris in both eyes then, although even doing that it is still not noticeable. U still really have to look hard see it.

:panic: :panic: looks my collecting days maybe numbered!!! Aghhhhhhh :gah:

joking aside Chris, that's pretty lame news that you may have to sought Brucey out elsewhere :( what is the sellers excuse again for the delay? Hope you can sort this out asap mate...have you checked with CollectiblesDirect? That's who I initially had my order with :)
 
no idea andy.last heard on 17th with him retrying the transfer thengoing to try paypal.kinda strange I thought,as this has been ongoing since early feb.
so why the delay is beyond me.i'd rather a ''sorry deals fallen through''reply rather than silence from the seller.
but as from 1st april I'm contacting another retailer who's given me the cost and arrival date,so my £s can go to him
really cheesed off with the lack of communication a simple sorted or not happening is all I need.
yeah checked collectibles direct,they say sometime in april,the seller in Italy has told me 3-6 april and is £50 cheaper.

So who will repaint this for u Chris? Since u can't take off the head without breaking it u would have to find someone local. Then again u could always glue the head back on since u are getting it repainted anyway.

If collectibles direct get theirs in before your seller does my advice would be to buy it there, especially since it is local, despite being more expensive.

:goodpost: I agree with Steve, Lee at CollectiblesDirect is an awesome guy who has a great reputation when it comes to checking the goods and delivering promptly, it may work out a little more expensive but you know what your getting will be in fantastic condition
 
I have a sister in law who's a bit of an artist,and she's done my 1/6 kits for me.i think the UK sellers will be late april or early may,as is the norm over here
I've just sent an email to my seller saying confirm or cancel.enough is enough.regarding the head steve,I take it its not just held by a magnet in the shoulder joint then?
I hear what you guys are saying, i'll see what the info in the UK is but toy heroes are also a good shop,and 48hr delivery to the UK.

collectibles direct steve.yeah sooner than I thought. if I hear nothing over the weekend from my seller,then this is most likely my best option.
at least that saves andy giving up collecting:wink1:
