It's ok, it's just that the :lol < LOL goes way back. And I think you were laughing at my story not my misery of getting a bad bust. I need someone to laugh at my misery of getting a bad bust because it was inevitable. :lol



I'll try and get some tomorrow. The paint is scuffed in numerous places. Not scratches or gouges but scuffs like someone lightly took some sandpaper to it.

I should have stayed with my original instinct on this piece and avoided it.

So it's pretty much simply not being sanded long enough to get it smoothed out. I can see that this could be a problem if they are on an assembly line and they have a time limit for the buffing and polishing. I will have to wait and see about this piece since it is pretty expensive to be having paint with these issues.
 
Hope it works out for you, Fritz !

Did you buy it direct from Sideshow ?

Thanks. Yeah, I ordered a while back direct from Sideshow and cancelled. Then I got on the waitlist sometime second half of December and it converted (which I was surprised at). It's really nice. I never had the Mark III but something about the silver Mark II look made me want it. I'm not too fond of the $799 price tag though. Why are Iron Man busts so much more expensive than the other Marvel 1:1 busts. :banghead

must be that great paint job :rolleyes:
 
I took a closer look inside the neck area now that I was packing him up and the paint ain't all the hot inside there either.
