Statue Obi-Wan Kenobi Mythos Statue

[Indyjones]

Just made my last two flexpay payments on this bad boy. I can't wait to get him! I was looking for a companion piece for the MR Obi ROTS LE lightsaber, and when I came across the Mythos statue, I had to get it!

If I'm gonna make my first post on these boards, why not do it right!

A few days ago Gartogg posted (pg 268) his pics edition is 1246...

I thought the ES is only 1200...

Finally got my Mythos today edition 698/1200... but right arm and a piece of the backpack was broken ((

Bought this from a local reseller and received the item in MISB condition, seller is willing to refund me total amount but I don't need the refund, I need a replacement and he cant do that...

The thing is that I'm a bit skeptical that SS would have a replacement body for this item and it would cost a whole lot to get it in to Indonesia, as they would charge import taxes as a new item...

Will try to email SS for a replacement, did anyone have the same problem ??

The ES for this piece is 2000 mate,

Sorry to hear yours arrived broken and you are unable to get a replacement

Always hate to hear of things like this happening

Mine arrived with some issues nothing like yours tho...

I bought direct from SS and when I emailed them they advised they had no replacement bodies

Not an issue now bro, I had taken it to a local guy here that was advised by SS to fix it and he did it perfectly...

Now I cant even see that the arm was broken off, it was broken at the right place... if there is such a thing... it got broken off at the shoulder and so the guy put a pin in and glued it together perfectly

Happy ending!

 

[Kenbenobi]

That's cool, Pablo. Glad someone was able to fix it. You would have regretted having to return this awesome statue. It is my favorite statue in my collection...

 

[Gartogg]

Very happy to hear that its fixed without any hassle Pablo, its a awesome statue and would have been a shame if you had to return it and miss out on having tjis in your collection

Glad its all sorted bro

I also prefer the unignited saber so I tore it off. I barely had to twist so I took it as a sign.
Also originally I was all about guiness head but once I got it in hand i preferred the ewan one.

Obi #1217 arrived today and luckily in perfect condition, nothing was broke. I did have to use a little force to get Obi all the way down on the base. I freaking love this thing! But....I did come across a slight problem. My bookcase isn't deep enough (11.5"). He'll fit, but I have to turn him sideways so that he's facing the side. So it looks like I have to invest in a besta. I'm also wanting to put the COA in a frame or an acrylic frame/stand. Would put it up on the back of the shelf somehow or just let it sit on the shelf with the statue?

 

[Indyjones]

After looking over Obi again, I did find a few blemishes.

....and this one. Sorry for the multiple posts. I'm using my iPhone and it won't let me attach more than one pic. Don't know if I'm doing something wrong or....

whats wrong here?

 

[Indyjones]

The gray blotch just below the belt. It looks to me that this was touched up in that area, with it being a completely different color than the rest of the surrounding area and not actually looking its part of the sculpt.

I think it's meant to be the lightsaber holder - some kind of.

 

[Darth Madden]

Yes, thats where the lightsaber hook was supposed to be. they all have it. Mine was just a completely flat gray box but you have the little blob.
