Go Hero Buck Rogers review

[Alice Adrenochrome]

I see you actually got an COA Michael. Many of us that ordered straight from Steve never got it. It was not in the package. Did anybody ask Steve about this lately? I still would like to get it. The 'package' is not complete without it - IMO.

I didn't know were were supposed to get a COA either... my box is number #217, but the COA would have been a nice addition.

Where was the COA located Michael? Hope it wasn't in the mailer.

GB, I remember that in the Buck Rogers thread (https://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/showthread.php?t=39897) someone brought up that there was a QC check list of things the figure should come with and how it should have been verified before sending it off to the customers. The COA was also on that list. I think some said that they never got the COA. I checked my box and the shipper box throughly, there was no COA.

Apparently Steve was aware of the missing COA's at the time. Here's a comment of him on the matter I found in the Buck thread:

I just sent Steve a mail about this to see what can be done.

It was right inside, laying on top (not inside) of the plastic tray.

I bought this today from my local dealer. The bubble is broken and I am taking it back to him. I'm pretty sure he broke it accidentally when trying to put it back in the tray after showing it to me. The problem is, he sold it for it to me for $140, which is way below retail and he can't get another one from diamond. He called and they are sold out. I don't know if I should still keep it.

So Mike, your dad thinks it's "crap" too eh?

Your place must be even more overrun than mine!

Actually, I was taking literary license in an attempt to be funny. My dad is as big of a collector as I am, it's just different stuff. People think I'm eccentric for having a outbuilding for my collection, but when I was a kid 40 years ago, my dad turned our garage into a 'museum' for all the stuff we collected on our vacations out west - rocks, traps, spurs, guns, antlers, artifacts, various western odds and ends. So he can't really say much now

Cool,
Let me know... I've lived without a COA this long, but it would be cool to have it. Number 217 here

I see that the Atomedia body with the audio is going for $85 and the regular body for about $30. Do you think Go Hero would ever consider re-issuing Buck without the audio body and sell it for sub $100? I would totally go for that since I don't really see myself using the audio feature much if at all.

Helpful as ever, Steve suggested he'd inclose the Buck Rogers COA with an other order, if I had one. Of course I have the Flash Gordon on order from him, so, problem solved.
So I suggest, you send him a mail. I'm sure he'll do the same for you.
Now, we only have to be patient until the Flash Gordon ships. Knowing how awesome the Buck Rogers is, it's hard to wait for Flash!
