Hot Toys 1/6 Hoth Leia

[Darthrazz]

I haven't read through the whole thread, but Im ordering this today from BBTS. Where exactly are the "dots"? What should I look for when I receive this?

Well it's the first time i open a new Hot Toys and feel ****ing pissed.

Hope a Tide-to-Go stick will work. Simple water worked on the boots only.

I used tide to go on mine and it worked. Just a small gentle application, then wiped with water to dilute the solution in case of any long term damage. I had a milder case of dots though. Sorry about your figure. Hope everything clears up

Oh man, Dresky, so sorry. Not sure how that gets passed the factory -- it looks like a clown suit.

Where did you order from? BBTS or ebay?

Holy cow, that's the worst one I've seen yet.

 

[Dresky]

It worked, but man... I hope this never happens again. Expected 2-3 dots, not 40.

So who sold you the bad figure?

Ordered from a local shop in Canada. The Hoth pox is spreading.

Whereabouts? I got mine from Toytards. Some dots, but not to the level you got by any means. I thought about emailing and exchanging, but who knows how long that process would be

Man, that's a BIG FAIL on the part of HTs; you have to wonder how it could have been boxed like that, was the dot-removal lady out sick? I'm hoping these or similar pics work their way back to HT...should be pretty embarrassing.

def keeping me from pulling trigger, just cannot be bothered to deal with gettin it like that.

That's exactly what i thought when i opened the box. You can't have this figure in your hand and place it in the box thinking "It'll pass, they won't notice".

I'm a crafty guy, i'm used to buy stuff and fix it. But this is shocking.

It's a freakin' white suit with around 30 blue and red ink dots on it.

If I decide to get this it’ll be from a seller who’s inspected it first. Those dots...wow.

 

[Wor-Gar]

This is precisely why I wouldn't buy from a seller on ebay that didn't communicate on 20% off coupon day.

Luckily the guy with the free shipping got right back to me and had pics of the open box.
