Yeah, he does have a bit of a giraffe neck. But, it can be masked more if the cloak is pulled up higher and he is wearing the helmet. But trimming some of the neck off of the sculpt would help.

I got my figure today from toyshomeb2. The figure is great, in spite of all the small flaws (which are already reported in this thread).
Unfortunately, my set was missing one of the leg armors:
The box was sealed, and in otherwise good condition, so this seems to be an error from the manufacturer. Since this is a limited edition set, parts are not available anywhere. I hope I can find a resolution with the seller, because I really don't want to return the item

Damn, that's bad news...
I hope mine doesn't have that problem!

That is horrible
. I would contact the seller and ACI promptly to try and get the missing piece. There were some being parted out on eBay a few day ago. Maybe there will be some more once the US retailers start to get theirs if you have a difficult time from ACI or the seller. Good luck man.

Man that sucks but i have had missing parts with hot toys as well before. Hopefully like hot toys does most of the time they'll sort it out.
I've already contacted the seller so hopefully they can get the missing part from ACI, without having me ship the entire set back to hk. If not, I'll have to wait for the missing part to be available on ebay, which could take some time.

I would also try and contact ACI....and then if thats not an option just wait for TA to break this down and be quick on the draw....

Bryan of ACI has a presence on the OSW board. If the seller can't sort it out you might try contacting him via a pm on OSW. Sorry to see you got the QC dud so far, it takes the gloss off the purchase somewhat. I'm sure the seller or ACI will be able to sort this out for you without having to resort to part outs.

My straps sit in well enough once it's posed. They'll fall out just handling the figure though. I'm going to set and forget, but if I wanted to affix them better I'll be using double-sided tape. I don't want to leave anything permanent on there.
My head is sitting on there nicely too. I haven't played around with it enough to say for sure, but just wiggling it about a bit it seems fine.

You know, I knew that.
I dunno why I typed "an". Musta been tired and not paying close enough attention.

This is one of the rare times when I really "..can hardly wait.." for it. Very excited. However, the place I ordered it from lists it as 'Arriving in April'. Bummer.

You're in for treat! But you need to be a bit zen about the time and effort it takes to assemble the figure into full costume. I've put together a few WWII military figures, which can be finicky - but this was probably more frustrating because of how poorly the connecting rods/spikes secure one part to another. You'll have just got one part right only to find something else has come apart or fallen off. When I eventually did get it all assembled it presented as a very impressive figure. As others have said, it is a real centre piece.
The head shape isn't quite right - I found it looks way more like Crowe with the helmet on. But when I look at the figure I'm very happy with the likeness - not 100% but unmistakably Crowe.
Any thoughts about swapping out the ACI head for Denny Kim's when it is released?

The paint looks great. To my eye it's probably a 10-15% better sculpt overall, but at over 80% of the MSRP of the full figure set, I'll pass.

if it cost that much then that's just ridiculous....I'm loving it though....more and more pub this figure gets we may get a licensed figure one day

The iminimminimineeeee looks good but not enough to want me to switch out the original, plus its expensive.
