Predator Legendary Scale Busts

[NickNack]

Got #13, my lowest number by far. He is in perfect condition and has no flaws whatsoever. Very happy with the purchase. He looks awesome once you have him in hand.

Here's a couple pics:

Thanks guys, I was a little worried that I would have something wrong with mine when he arrived, but happy that I didn't.

Unfortunately, i already broke a tip off one of the dreads I bent it just a little bit and snap! Be careful with the dreads guys, they break easily. I was able to super-glue it back on but not happy i did that. Doh!

And thanks for the heads-up on the fragile nature of this bust!

Got my Exclusive replacement late last week and it was worse than the one I sent back. It was supposed to be inspected but it was not good. One of the quills holes by the eye is badly cracked and has a paint chip, the teeth were not inserted properly so they have bad gaps and there are a number of spots by the dreads that either did not get painted or the paint had already flaked off of the bust. It makes be concerned that the paint could suffer further damage in the future. I am going to return it for a full refund and this will be my last Sideshow statue/bust purchase.

Might suck to not have one, but they need to learn that we're paying for quality..not crap.

that sucks man, it's a shame that the factories can't even get the teeth consistant on these. I got lucky..........

 

[chris rankin]

This is the reason why I cancelled my Exclusive as it seems to be hit and miss with the quality so it was not worth the headache. It sucks when you send a defective item back and get one that was worse WTF.

 

[Collector_Neo]

Its like SS is hell bent on committing Kamikaze!

Its like if u get a screwed-up product, dont you dare and ask for a replacement cuz the replacement is gonna be f'ud-up!!

Clearly Lame.

Cheers,
Neo.

And now the trouble begins! I honestly thought mine was 100% complete but now I've found there is one (1) single quill missing from the lower part of the Predator's chest! The repsonse from Sideshow says they'll either have me return it for a full refund (since there are no replacements left) or accept a $45.00 partial. Did anyone who destroyed their statue for a replacement bother to keep any spares? Please let me know because I hate the prospect of never seeing this piece completed.

I got mine last week, kind of scared to open him up after seeing all the damage pictures.

oh man that sucks, hope someone can help you with that

the problem I have with two of the quills on my piece is that they are bent & they need to be straightened
anyone have any ideas how I might be able to fix this?

Here's an appeal to everyone who's destroyed their bust in order to receive a replacement. Plz salvage the parts. They might be junk to you but could be a saving grace to others.

Open it up man! Atleast if its damaged, you can go for a replacement or a refund. If its just a missing quill or something like that, fellow freaks might be able to help you on that. All the Best!

First get your hands on a couple of quills and then try straightening the ones on your bust. That way, You wont regret if anything goes wrong!

Cheers,
Neo.

I took the partial refund. One missing quill isn't a deal breaker imo. Nobody would ever even notice it on mine unless they inspected like I did. Just move the necklace to the center and whoala.

Easy fix for the back of the head and teeth

@ Mike M, sorry to hear about your loss mate... Hope you get it resolved.

I desperately need the help of one of the UK freaks on here - did anyone order the EX from Sideshow? If so how much were your customs charges from Fedex? Mine we 72 pounds, that's over $100 ffs. Intend to take it up with Fedex who just sent me a letter yesterday but I just need to know if anyone else received such a steep customs fee.

Thanks
