Capt. America is hollow and...

Very nice and I don't mind the weight lite. Better for dispaying on glass cabinet shelf.

you got the dusty variant edition

 

[dollfins1]

where's the nameplate?

Wait...

I actually feel bad for the dude.....I shouldn't laugh....

A piece I got awhile back was dusty too... can't remember which one, but it was from SS and the base had dust in all the crevices.

Take an air compressor to it and see if it helps. do NOT use anything wet, including water, to try and get it off.

 

[FQRizzo]

IT'S A FIASCO !!!

 

[JacktheRipper]

The name plate is in the box. Although I like the exclusives for this line I didn't feel the need for a pic of it.

And don't feel bad for me. It doesn't bother me. I still think it's a great little piece. I just found it odd.


and Mesa I don't think that I can get enough air pressure to actually blow it out. It seems to be really adhered to the surface. I didn't use any solutions just a rag and nothing seems to be coming off.

It's not as noticible inperson. The flash really brings it out. It is there, however.

 

[Mesa]

IF you feel like it, try a clean/unused makeup brush, those kind that sort of look like a paint brush. The may be able to dislodge the dust from the crevices and then hit it with a blast of air.

 

[legato]

Just use some clr and that should fix the dust problem.....

 

[averone]

Strange thing about the dust!
I dont mind the weight since its going on top of my plastic cubes. Mine will be here on Mon.

 

[IrishJedi]

That actually looks like it could be shop dust (or, overspray) to me. Then again, it's not on the star (the head was probably painted separately). Interesting...

 

[averone]

Yes the more I look at it the more I think this one need to go back!
Look at the box behind it, no dust on that!

 

[jye4ever]

Yup

paint problem more like it, booooooo

 

[DinoLast]

This looks like a job for...

 

[NotDolls]

I didn't realize these were already shipping, I haven't even been charged for mine yet.

 

[Hulksmashed]

Are you sure its dust and not just a poor pain app? The "dust" seems to be at the edges of the scales where if the paint was sprayed on carelessly it might just miss those areas. AS in they sprayed form the top for the shoulders but straight on for the rest?

 

[SolidLiquidFox]

I see Sideshow is sitting on about 60 of these but it is still listed as a wait list item.

Come on Sideshow, let people use their points and giftcards on this. LOL!

 

[Hulksmashed]

Yeah, same thing with The Thing. The day after I added my name to the waitlist it converted. They just don't want to put it on second chance because if you have to go through a waitlist you can't use points

 

[XMAN]

no way.....dust can't be intenttional......what for ?
Why would sideshow supply you with dust anyway?.....
I'm sure they must know that we can manage to get our own.....makes no sense.

Looks like the design of the paint. Look at the seams on his mask, they are the same color. Looks like a wash or something to show the scales better. Also look around the neck, same color. It looks like an attempt to shadow the piece.
