Yeah saw that thread after thanks

I just return the Endo. 1/2 scale. The eyes would not lid up.

Hey buddy, I know what you mean, mine did not light up. I got the replacement but have not unpacked it yet. Sorry about that happening. It is a lot of unpacking and assembly on that endo to find that out.

Are you getting a replacement?

I wouldn't hold your breath.

Pics are posted. Not all of us fall into utter disappointment that it cripples us when we get a broken piece.

So much for all the "yeah bro, this initial batch will be FLAWLESS, and the later shipment guys are screwed!!!".

Whose laughing now?

Hey, have you had that many doubtful experiences in collecting that there is that much doubt in what SS does?

The fact is that there are many people who work hard in putting this line, and others, to make our incredible collectables happen.

I am never opposed to constructive critiques or some fun jabbing. If you have some then you should post those.

Maybe there will be many broken ones, maybe there won't.

All I know is they packed the one I got very well, and it was just chance that it broke in my case. Nothing else.

What are you yapping about? You do realize I already have one of these Maquettes on order and paid for right?

Funny how you interpreted what I said to be a knock on the manufacturer. Some pretty interesting comprehension skills you've got there. Not sure how to make it much more black and white for you?

You guys getting yours early basically scoffed at the rest of us who are on the fence or who have to wait until March (maybe not you personally, but quite a few of you did) by saying you early few "had it made and nothing could/would go wrong, and that everyone else would basically get the leftovers". Then you get yours and what happened?

Karma. That's what happened.

You're $2,000 statue looks like it could use a serious tourniquette. Tough luck buddy, better luck next time?

Hmm, sounds like some self-esteem issues going on here, and yes I know you have one of these ordered, no need to brag about that. I have read no posts in this thread or others who have purposely scoffed you because they got theirs before hand.

Of course, I may have missed these posts. Please provide the quotes of those members, myself or others, who have personally scoffed you for not getting yours early; which you did not instigate.

My break did not occur because of Karma. It occurred as a result of chance, no bad packing, no bad Karma, not because I received mine early, etc. Just chance.

And I do hope you get yours in one piece and one done with an excellent paint job.

It is not fun getting a broken one, nor is it depressing, and it is certainly not life shattering. Yet, I do not wish this on anyone, whether they got theirs early or late. Not even on you.

If you cannot provide these quotes, please consider our conversation in this thread closed.

And please do not refer to me as your buddy. I am not your buddy.

Yes, i am getting a replacement. It might comes back in the same shipment with the IM 1/2 scale.

You have to consider too that it may not just be chance. There may be a design flaw where the casting is too thin in that area making it more susceptible to breakage, even if packed properly using their current box size. Perhaps a larger box is needed in the long run.

Obviously not every single collector is a member of this forum or the others so we may never know how many in the long run. However if you are a forum member, you would be more likely to take pictures and post so we shall see if this is a trend or just a one time fluke. Your box didn't look like it had any damage like being dropped at an angle with a corner crushed.. So far we have two boxes, one broke, one perfect. That's 50/50 so far.

The good news is if you order from Sideshow, they replace it and pay for the shipping if it is broken. You can't beat that service. I know I am going to order this, perhaps if there is an EX version with a little IM bobble head to go along with it..lol.. Kidding.. I know if when I get my tax refund check and I have enough in my bank account, I will then place an order. No sooner and no later. So I hope it is not on a waiting list by. The good news is there is plenty of time to get this shipping box design improved or beefed up if that is the problem.

Wow!

The pics are so cool.....too bad I can't get it...

I wish SS would make a 1/4 scale version....it goes with the rest of my collection and it would be a lot more affordable.....

Hey there buddy, since I can't quote AN ENTIRE PAGE, I'll just direct you towards it.

Try page 5. All of it.

And I love how all you can do is sit there and jump straight to character attacks just because you got served up a steaming pile of IM shat, when you thought you were guaranteed safe. I have "self esteem issues"? Oh the irony. LOL I love it!

Have a good one buddy!

....and with that I think this thread can be locked.

There is now the piccies thread for this piece so I think this can be left alone.
