Freaked Out
Yay mine shipped too! Should be here monday.
Mine just arrived last night. This is my 13th Sideshow statue, and I finally got one with bad eyes. Oddly enough, half the iris looks chipped off on both eyes. I'm surprisingly not too upset, just disappointed, 'cause it was bound to happen eventually. But atleast I'll finally get a chance to try applying the Archer eyeball decals. This will be my first attempt, so does anyone have any helpful tips they can share? I've watched a couple Youtube videos, but any additional advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Please tell me your at least asking for a replacement...guys, don't just accept these flaws. Even if you keep the statue, let SSC know!
I actually sent Sideshow an email with some pics attached. I honestly don't expect any sort of resolution, but I agree it's important that we speak up, otherwise it'll just be business-as-usual for them. In case anyone's interested, below is an excerpt of what I sent them:
"I know Sideshow's reputation has taken a major hit in recent years, and while I'll continue to purchase your statues, I really hope you're able to improve your quality control in the future. Your customers spend thousands of dollars and are fiercely loyal to your brand; at the minimum, Sideshow should be able to ensure that they are putting out a quality product free of defects. You've got extremely talented people working for you and great employees who care about their customers. It's a shame that mangement seems to look the other way when it comes to the quality control process. Whoever is in charge of QC needs to take more ownership of what is produced, starting with the paint application. I love Sideshow, but 'buyer beware' isn't the way to operate any company."
Won't matter
what won't matter?
The email to Sideshow about improving their quality control.
For everyone who has already gotten CW, is she heavier than Ivy?
In regards to getting her foot peg in and then out of the base, buy some Tri-Flo lubricant spray. Spray it onto a Q-Tip and rub that on the peg. My a Catwoman went in and out of the base much easier after that. Took me a lot of work to get her in and even longer to get her out before that.
After looking at thomphan's CW, I can't complain.
Hope you get another one bro.
For mine other than the eye, everything else was okay, although it takes a while to actually place Catwoman on the base, and too take her out of it.

The base of CW, makes her heavier.
But if you are holding only the body CW is lighter, compare to Ivy.
