Darth Maul – STAR WARS Mythos Statue

Re: Darth Vader (Mythos) Statue

i go through this bs ever other order. return it and get a full refund. i bet they try and make you pay for return shipping tho. and just wait until the correct arms are done and order again. there is no winning with ss so i think that is your best option.

yup it killed me but it went back today. thank god they made 5000, this should last plenty long enough. ill just hope the next one isnt painted like a nascar.

A paint chip on the helmet. But that was it. The eyes I wouldn't say are perfect, but I can live with them.

I think physical flaws SS will work with the customer more then just opinion based flaws. There's a lot of grey area in the quality based complaints... even if it is somewhat justified like in BLS's case.

I hope your return is in better shape and its not someone else's return.

The only way to win with Sideshow is not to play. If enough customers start voting with their wallets and stop giving Sideshow business they will learn to fix their QC issues and stop being so disrespectful to customers who have spent thousands with them.

I hope you get a good one thats not broken and thats less orange than your first and isn't someone else's return.

Can anyone with the statue please post a pic of how the belt loop for the lightsaber should look?
I don't know if mine is chipped or what but it is painted over

Hope mine ships out today. Cancelled a pre-order that they keep pushing back and moved the funds to this.

Re: Darth Vader (Mythos) Statue

I've got Gammy and Maul and debating on when to get this guy. So is SS going to ship the correct arm with new orders, or how are they handling that?

Re: Darth Vader (Mythos) Statue

Excellent paint apps!!!! Nice job! Did you customize the "Power of the force" fist to fit in the right spot or did you get the correct arm?

I cut the arm at the bend and glued it in the correct position then resculpted most of the arm with Aves epoxy putty.

The orange overspray is a bit much for me, but congrats to those that got good ones and are happy with it.

Re: Darth Vader (Mythos) Statue

I really want to like this Vader, but the orange "lighting" effect is killing it for me. These things always look better in hand, but it's too much of a risk for me.

Big congrats on those that have him.

Re: Darth Vader (Mythos) Statue

The orange is intense.... but I like it!

Re: Darth Vader (Mythos) Statue

I know it's a lot of work, but if someone would p-shop this piece without the overspray, I think it'll show how different this Vader would have looked.

Re: Darth Vader (Mythos) Statue

You know, the point of the Mythos line is NOT to give us the iconic image of each character.

It's to create something different.

The orange does not make for the iconic Vader. It was never supposed to. It's to tell a story. The orange tells a story.

Re: Darth Vader (Mythos) Statue

I do wish the orange was more of a red.

But I still love it!!!!!!!
