That's a shame. The full-sized figure had quite a few quality issues as well, and I think they tried to cover up some of the blemishes with weathering.
Well I think I got a return. Box looked like its been opened. And the sad news, My C3PO has a Big Scratch along his face. Put in for a replacement. Doubt I'll get one. Sucks. There's no way this could have passed inspection in QC. I wanna quit collectiong and sell all my bust now. Getting a "Crap" Statue is so disheartening.
I feel your pain. I'm not sure what is going on with Sideshow lately but there are so many issues. When I bought my first Boba Fett bust I noticed the removable chest plate was a different shade of green than the rest. I went back and forth with Daniel from returns for weeks trying to get a replacement chest piece but they denied it and asked me to return the whole bust. So I finally returned it and picked up my new one today and what do you know I got an open box (probably a return) and a Fett bust with a cracked visor. Very disheartening but at least the the color was correct on the chest plate. Maybe the third one will be a keeper or maybe not.![]()

Thats horrible news mateI know you were unsure what to do about the chest plate colour and to now hear you did get a replacement but with cracked visor is terrible
Makes me think SS just has a bunch of flying monkeys doing their QC
I really really hope 3rd time is a charm mate
Keep us posted!
Mine seems to have issues as well. I'm thinking how I want to approach SS. It is awesome and while I think I can live with some of the imperfections apart of me wants more for the money spent instead of settling.. This is one of the reasons I moved away from SS statues.
I think the issue here is that there are very few of these busts left, so it's conceivable that they may not have replacements.
