I had the same odor as well. I also had a broken flame on my base. Called SS and they gave me $50 credit. They didn't have any bases to replace it with. It's like rolling dice sometimes with these pieces.

They have a few thousand unsold red Phoenix bases but none for green Phoenix??

I won't take a credit for this. Give me a replacement or give me my money back. I also noticed I had a paint issue on black paint on her chest. Something tells me I'm sending this back.
 
Do what you gotta do, man. Don't settle for something that doesn't work for you.
 
Darkseid Exclusive went back when they told me they were only going to give me a credit and I really liked that piece too. I'm just not going to settle anymore. I don't think I've ever had a no issue streak when it comes to ordering directly with sideshow. For every one good piece I get 2 or 3 with issues.
 
As much as I like this piece, I decided not to accept the $50 credit and send this back. This really ticks me off, this hit or miss crap with SS sometimes! I wish they were more consistent with their QC.
 
I'm glad I didn't get the green cause it seems they were rushed out of the factory with no time for the paint to dry. That must be the reason most people are complaining about the smell of paint. You always get a smell of new when you open these up, but a strong smell of paint is not cool. And then broken flame tip pieces? When I got my red, it was not sealed tightly how they usually come so the packaging was engineered too small and not precise for the base. I was lucky my base was not damaged by this. I hope SS is learning from all these goofs.

Indeed. My green was also not sealed well. Definite gap between the styrofoam. Luckily I was ok.
