You gotta be quick mate. CDUK are long sold out.

Not sure who will have it now.

Keep your butt hurt to yourselves, but the Rex's fence will require some assembly on delivery

i.e. Bending. Will be the first statue I've bought where I'm supposed to inflict damage to it.

Can you display it without the fence? Anyone know? I just want a T-Rex roaring.

I don't know why not.

I spotted that, as you confirmed what I was rapidly beginning to grasp, I've ordered it from them
Cheers

Oh god.

Oh god.

It's not that bad. Watch the fb live video on Chronicle's feed to know what going on. I think the info comes around the 8 or 10 minute mark.

 

[Collectorcol]

I'm not on FB. Can I still watch?

If you remind me I can post it to YouTube later

2 things bug me about this fence bending thing. One, I'm kind of an OCD purist about my stuff. I don't like altering things, even to touch up factory defects. I feel like I've altared the piece in some way and it's not all original anymore. In that vein, I'm likely to drive myself nuts trying to make it look like the prototype. I guess you could argue a person should think of it like posing a figure instead of altering the piece. But, for people like me it's almost a cruel prank lol.

Second, some people have zero artistic talent. And for those folks, even bending the wires is going to be beyond their skills and the statue might not look as good as it could. And they'll know it. So, that's a bit of a burden on folks like that, even with the instructional video they're putting together. BTW, if it needs an instructional video, probably not the ideal way to go.

There must have been some sort of packaging issue that made them go this way. Regardless, fence bending is not something I'm looking forward to.

Gutted figureland can't supply it

They opened a production piece and the factory did great

Looks good in video, will wait to see high res pics as video is fairly poor quality and hard to see much detail.

 

[Collectorcol]

Let's hope that's a true representation of what we will receive.

Bait 'n switch fellas. BAIT. AND. SWITCH.

Uhm.... not really good in finish.. That little arm looks like an action figure arm that you can pose... Like it's glued on. The paint on this one is not like the one they unboxed.
