The bottom of the base is fantastic

There are a few thing I would've like to see done differently, such as the costume needs some sort of shading depth, it's a touch too black for me, and I'm not crazy about the hooks just hanging in the back of his head, I'm gonna make my own. I am not a fan of the base, it's not tall enough, I think that's half of the problem of him looking too small, when you display him next to say the Jason PF, he looks so small cuz his base is a lot shorter than Jason's. The figure itseft is a bit smaller but he should be a little smaller than Jason, but the base makes him look way smaller.
 
I just noticed. there's no blood splatter on his belly button piercing???

That sucks!
 
The dress looks really Bad. I'm wondering if it could be fixed by using small weights or something... To pull it down and closer to the body. I'm happy about the pins and details though. Still on the fence, the skirt is just too princess like.
 
Got mine today, well before the Thursday delivery estimate! :rock (Do we still do :rock around here?)

I have some issues though:

1) The peg did not want to slide into the hole on the base at all. I eventually got it in there, but I'm not sure it's ever coming out. It's actually not quite all the way, does this pic look similar to yours?

2) Mine came with a white mark on the skirt. It's not coming out with a (very) damp cloth, anybody here have any tips?

3) It doesn't fit in a DETOLF. (Not really a mark against it, I'm just throwing it out there if anybody is thinking of putting him in a DETOLF.)

I'm extremely happy even if he looks a little smaller next to other PF's. The thing looks phenomenal and will shine in any horror collection. And just for grins (and to answer the call for more pics), here's a pic that's not attached to a complaint: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/10279016/Photo Dec 15, 8 48 05 PM.jpg

I don't have mine yet, maybe today but I think that foot peg issue would bother me. It appears to be preventing his other foot from even touching the base so it looks like he's floating. I don't know about the white mark, but it looks small enough in the picture. If that were the only issue I could probably deal with it.

But he won't fit in a Detolf? Damn! I was hoping he would. What is the width of that base?
 
That white spot looks like paint.

If you can get the figure out of the base, maybe you can scrape the inside of the peg hole. Sometimes extra poly cakes in the peg holes preventing the peg from seating properly. Not saying that will work, but could be an option.

I am sending mine back and I have exclusive, I am not happy with the value of the statue to me it seems cheaply done and I have gotten cheaper statues with better quality than this. This set me back 5 bills and the quality is not there. I beginning to love gentle giants statues the quality there is remarkable and I find deals much cheaper than side show. I think they dropped the ball on this and I had this on pre order more than a year ago. This to me I just can not keep. Its not horrible however its just not eye popping and that is why I collect for the quality and love of these statues and it could of been thicker better paint job had a scuff on the base just amateur quality in my book. People either will love this or hate this I am in the middle but not good enough for a 5 bill drop!
 
Loving the photos. He is supposed to arrive today. Sadly, UPS usually shows up at about 6:00pm and I will be gone by 5:30. Se la vie. I'll get him tomorrow.
 
Congrats BG! Looking forward to your thoughts on the piece.

Also, regarding the outfit... there should be a simple way to gather the pleather and gather it behind him so that it's not flaring out like that. If anyone is displaying their piece in a bookshelf or enclosed case, then you wouldn't be able to see the back anyway.

Yeah GG is fully sculpted and details are insane. Mine will be here tomorrow night. So hope it will be a keeper. I'm getting nervous now about his puffy dress, scale next to other horror statues by ss, and here now is lack of details said by some owners. Not sounding promising. Hope ss will prove me wrong when it gets here. :pray: If GG can do a fully sculpted pinhead with coh that would be insane.
 
The skirt flare out is an easy issue to fix if it bothers you. Just pull the back a bit tight and use a small rubber band to keep it tight but do it to the inside so its not visible. And as far as detail goes, sure its a character in a jet black outfit. From a distance you cannot discern the detail. This is a piece you need to look at closer. There is alot of little details packed into this piece. And the main issue with the height comes from the base. Its only about and inch high if that. Next to a freddy or jason whose base is massive of course he will look smaller. I really do not think anyone who is a fan of pinhead or hellraiser, will have any issues other than nitpicking. And thats fine. As collectors were **** lets be honest hahahahaha. But its still an impressive piece, well to me at least. If my computer did not poop the bed i would have posted a ton of pics. But hey a 10 year old mac has its day someday i guess hahaha
