I'll be happy to post some pictures when I get home, since I'm gonna need them as part of the exchange process anyway. I'm at work for a bit yet, but I'll be heading home soon. I will be sure to post some when I get home.

oh, that worries me that you've getting some parts exchanged; your post previously mentioned that you're going to reach out to SS, what'd you end up getting replaced if you don't mind me asking?

What really? That's really odd of them to turn you down for an issue like that...

Caledor did SS say they would not replace your figure? If so, what did they all say? And chopsueyboi, I'm not looking to have any specific part exchanged, I'm looking for a replacement figure because of the concerns that I have about my own figure. Working on getting those pictures uploaded. Just got home and my phone is being kinda finicky so give me a bit yet and I'll have them up.

Nothing cited here is unusual for such a large and complex figure. threezero has done similar figures, all the Real Steel, Titanfall, etc. and they are very, very minor compared to how stunning the figure is.

Yeah, yours definitely got it bad, mine's perfect except for the loose foot issue.

Yeah I'm hoping I can get a replacement, or at least my money back to buy a new one.

It sucks they don't have a replacement but all the option are very reasonable imo.

I gotta say I'm a bit confused. Since we can still purchase Raynor from the Sideshow store, but they don't have any replacements, could you just get a full refund, and then reorder him from Sideshow?
Yeah he could if he wanted to, they just can't replace whats broken so he has 3 options.
Keep it - get $40 Store Credit
Keep it - get $35 Back to Credit Card
Return - get Full Refund/New one

Alright. Well I guess I'll see what customer service says to me since I'm looking to replace my whole figure. Although I imagine if they won't replace the finger they won't replace my figure so I'll just have to get a refund and buy anew. Has anyone gotten a refund before? Any idea of how long it take to get your money back?

Here is some more pictures of him by the way. He can get into some really great poses.

I forgot to add pics to my Raynor inquiry so they emailed me asking to attach some so they can make a decision regarding any sort of Action. Fortunately I fixed my wrist issues so I just need to message them to close it.
Dark Lord dave, did you try my suggestion with the screws on the wrist to fix your loose wrist issue?

I got mine today.
My first impression isn't very enthusiastic.
To begin with, the package design is a joke, not worthy of SS or the price tag.
The figure is nice but the paint job, especially for metal colour, sucks big time.
I was lucky to have zero damages.
The trunk articulation is off and I have trouble to align it with the rest of the body.
The overall finish is kinda of dissapointing for a high end collectible we were all eagerly waiting for.
For now I will leave him in the box. I have not time to spend on improving him right now.
I will come back later when I'm done customising my CAIN replica from Chronicle collectible.

Nice pics URDNOTSullivan & some great poses there!
With all those issues I'd look for a replacement too. Hope they look after you.

I hear ya. It's possible there are many people who don't post that bought the figure and received a flawless version of him. However, with a figure this complex, there is bound for something to go wrong along the lines. The more pieces, the higher the probability of something will break.
