Kyle came, he saw, he kicked its ass! On both of them!
And then the factories came, saw and actually kicked it around.

You really know how to make a grown man cry, don't you, dev?
Keep the pics coming, fellas! Trying to decide whether to get this through BBTS or EE. Getting one in person at TRU would allow me to look for breakages, but it would be the most expensive option.

He seems like a pretty happy chappy.

No thankfully as far as I can tell although as I mentioned be careful with the 6 spikes because the pegs seem very thin and will break easily. I have one that almost broke because stupid me put one of the small ones in the middle, so I very carefully removed it which made the peg loose. I was afraid it was going to break off. Also when plugging in the spikes the pegs don't seem to make any snap sound or any feel as if they are plugged in all the way even though they are. Just be real careful with those.
All in all she is AMAZING. I cannot stress how great the paint is on the thing. Articulation is great as well. I can actually have her stand on her own without the stand as I have her in my pic but I put the stand there anyway just in case of a bump or something. If she falls one or more of those spikes are breaking no doubt about it.

Just look at that paint on the leg, look at the broze color paint highlights. I don't know how screen accurate it is, I can't remember, but man it looks incredible and even better in person.

I'd be reluctant to pose the figure without the stand. It just seems very heavy in the front to me, as if it's just begging to topple forward.
The sculpt is phenomenal!! I'm really nervous about getting mine damaged.
That really did turn out great! Congrats to those getting her.

Yeah that's why I have the stand there. I know if the table gets bumped it'll fall over.

Here I am again holding my money tight. Wondering if I should spend $150 on SS R2 D2 and have it displayed next to my HT Luke or replace my current Mcfarlane Alien Queen (costing $130) which holds a spot way up at the top of my cases........ (ignore the background drapes they are temporary). OR save the money for a future HT purchase.
Decisions...decisions.....

So far I've heard nothing. Not stressing it yet, but am a bit nervous because I'm just in a holding pattern waiting. I wish they would either ship it or tell me to get bent already.
I don't buy it when he says things like that. According to him, they've switched factories dozens of times. Highly doubt that's the case. Seems more like a go-to line when people complain about the quality. "Oh, that was a bad factory. We've moved since then." Give me a bloody break.
All I know is that we used to get things like this before 2008. Then it went downhill.
