I just noticed that the nose on my Vader mask has some weird line down the middle like a skeleton nose.

All your problems Marc, leads me to think maybe Sideshow does read all our comments on here.
Now I'm starting to wonder if some of the shipped figures weren't different heights. Some people measuring (and photographing, see Rebel Scum) a 14" figure and others 13.5" - odd to say the least.
that`s what im wondering maybe they send all the bad figures to people who complain a lot about there product.
Then I laid him down with his feet at the edge of a table and marked the point where he dome came to on the table. He was 13.5" exactly.
Now I'm not sure what's more troubling, the QC issues or that I keep seeing Vader holding his saber in his left hand…
Mine stands 13.5" from ground to the peak of the dome, mAybe they need to check the feet are on all the way and the head is on properly?
I'm sorry to hear so many of you have these issues. I've actually never had any issues with SS pieces, and most of my collection is SS.
In this case, I pre-ordered the EX in May 2013, I was charge on Jan.7, shipped on the 15th or so, and I received it on Monday (the 20th). I live in Toronto, so I had assumed that was the reason for the delay in shipping.
Anyway, I didn't have time to open it until last night, and I guess I must be one of the lucky ones.
Impressive..... most impressive.
No scratches on the dome, no paint issues, no fraying on the cape, both tusks intact and solid. Even the Anakin sculpt is perfect. I have to say, that I really love what SS is doing these days (although I'm still on the fence about Destro). I don't have the skill, tools, or in some cases, imagination to customize my figures, or create customized figures, so I totally respect what some of you can do. But for someone like me, these figures are FANTASTIC. I couldn't be happier.
Here are some crappy pics from my terrible LG phone:

How is it not SS fault? Other retailers double box all their figures for no extra cost!That's not SS' fault.
