Well She FINALLY arrived at 11am she is #525/550 (always get the high numbers ) and I was like a school kid at Christmas again!! I was all over the place..., I carefully got her out of her box and gradually assembled her to take some photos and ...unfortunately there are some issues with the paint (or to me anyway!!) and their is a little chip in the paint on the rear section piece of the dress and there is an issue with either the paint or the molding of the hand grasping the gun...

So my has quickly turned to , I was like NOOOOOOO!!!!!

I will post what pics I have to show you what I mean as soon as I can. Image shack seems to be down at the moment and I cant upload my pictures guys.

I just gotta try decide what Im going to do with these defects now... coz with living in the UK and all this new FedEx deliver malarky dont think I will be sending it back, but I might be willing to try and fix it myself, once I know what paints etc to use.

Hope no-one else has any issues like this... I'll keep my fingers crossed for the rest of you guys and gals.

Ok got the pictures uploaded now and will let you decide for yourselves what you think...

The good ones first









and finally



bad ones in the next post...

 

[zimbo]

NOW the dodgey ones...



not sure if the above picture should be like that or smooth?


speaks for its self I think that one...





and finally this last one which is not serious but just to let you guys know to check just in case.. The blue at the left and right of the teeth on the top row and the two nostrils have tiny molding issue. (but NO-ONE will ever see those..)

 

[JosephCPR]

Ask for a whole return. Those nostrils look so bad...and you paid for a mint statue

 

[NotDolls]

Mine is out for delivery! Any minute now she'll be mine! Any... minute...

 

[ComputerFly]

Dagger is glowing in your picture.

I'm glad someone else picked up on that. I was tripping out a little bit when I downloaded the photo from the camera. I was like "Is Dagger actually GLOWING???!?!"

I can't really explain it. I don't see that type of glow from the white color on Mystique, so I'm unsure why Dagger seems to be. OOooOOOwwwheeeoooooo.

 

[NotDolls]

Yep, any minute...

I agree with Joseph man, ask for a return.

Truly EPIC, great pics Steve

This wouldn't bother me but the nostrils would would with the funky molding.

 

[NotDolls]

Got her! At work so I just took the main statue out of th ebox to get a look. A little paint smudging, some gold on blue, but all and all an awesome piece! Can't wait so set her up between my other two AH! statues!

Awesome sculpt. Print, not so much.

That's so true.

The prints fine comparied to some of these minor molding issues (SS quality folks) the sculpt has. If you're not part of the 550, you're not elite...
