wrap it twice around the neck and tie it at the front.

I finally picked my set up today. Looks phenomenal overall, but one of the mustache tips broke off in transit. I wish the whole piece broke off so I could glue it back in instead. A bit of a bummer. Hopefully he'll help me out with a replacement mustache piece or something. He really should have modified the way the individual heads were shipped IMO. Because of the hair, it forces the sculpt to get pushed into a side angle in the box, which puts pressure right on one of the two mustache tips.

 

[vareika]

Damn that is unfortunate Kara - did you find the broken piece? Maybe you can sculpt a little tip and paint it up (may not be too noticeable).

Thanks, I kind of just wrapped it and tucked it under the vest haha...lazy man style.

 

[karamazov80]

No, I couldn't even find the little piece in there.

 

[Phine1]

hope the man can help you out, thats really a bummer - but perhaps it is so small that like vareika sais, you could sculpt a tip on there and paint it so its not noticeable? either way, def. contact Lee.

Here's one for the OCD crowd - notice anything?

 

[Ajkhunter]

That mark in the black stripe?

 

[Phine1]

hmm.... belt covers it? haha

 

[marlindesign]

Thats not even finished off... looks like some of these vests got the rush treatment...

 

[PopCultKid]

That mark in the black stripe?

That was my guess too. I actually have two of those white marks on the front of my pants and one on the back. They didn't come out with a little water and almost look like bleach spots.

I have a few other pretty sizable issues going on as well. I made a deal to swap my FS with someone for their DX but I got the regular (non-DX) COA. I also had a broken mustache right out of the box (full/clean break) but I couldn't find the broken piece anywhere. Too bad because if I did it would probably be an easy enough fix. And last but not least... I don't have a tray for this little piggy . The upside though is I DID end up with this one (or one with a similar app; no blood trickle on the left side):




I'll have to give the big guy a shout tomorrow. It's all a bit aggravating but I'm not overly worried because I know that he'll make good on most of the issues. I have a feeling that I'll be SOL on the pants though.

The bumpy unboxing didn't sour me though. I'm still lovin' the piece for the beauty that it is. The shillelagh & knife set are amazing! I'm nuts for them and the pipe is really cool too. The pig is the s__t!!! Great DX choice despite my initial disbelief. However, while the knives themselves are better than V1's, the belt isn't as well made as V1. I have to take more time to do an overall apple to apple comparison, but off first impressions while I really am happy with this piece... V1 is still the king in my book

I feel so lucky my moustache didn't break while being shipped, seems it happened to quite a few sets

I'm building it tomorrow on a proper body, not a TTM22

 

[Corrose]

Should be getting my DX Wednesday. I never really displayed my V1 Bill with his hat on too much, my concern was always since it's no a soft material, it scratching into the paint on the head. However, I really want my V2 with the hat on...is it going on easy enough where it's not having to be forced or pushed?

 

[vareika]

Its very loose fitting. Actually, my V1 Bill has a little "wear and tear" from wearing the hat.

congrats!!! and welcome!
the figure is absolutely beautiful! have you received it yet?

Hi Phine, thank you for the welcome...no, he hasn't arrived, yet, but stay tuned...cheers, Michael.
