This looks cool!

She and Toothless are going to make a great looking pair.

I received my second statue to pair up with my Toothless that I ordered a while ago! These are both beautiful! I never really considered myself to be all that interested in statues but these looked so good!

With that being said here are my questions and concerns.... specifically about the Light Fury:

Is it normal for a "cheap" statue like this to have numerous blemishes on the surface? I believe these are made of resin so I suppose inconsistencies with the mold is to be expected? I just want to know if this is "normal" or if I got a bad one.

Pretty noticeable dimple in the leg. At least under light.

Some inconsistent blemishes with the resin. Looks like the mold didn't mold well or they tried to fix with putty?

You can see the crease where the leg meets the body.

Who knows, maybe I'm just being overly anal about this! As I said I don't usually buy statues so I'm really not sure what to expect with the quality control of most of these. My girlfriend has a Queen Studios bust on layaway for me (and I know Queen Studios isn't comparable to Sideshow) and I want to know ahead of time if small things are normal and to be expected.

If anything the thing that bothers me the most is the dimple in the leg. I need to verify if its as noticeable in person as it is in my photos.
