I guess I should of phrased it "I hope a lot of people would find it unacceptable to tear apart a $400 statue to fix an issue that shouldn't of been there" Obviously you feel it is acceptable so more power to ya... Although I don't agree with you regarding that for $400 we should expect subpar statues which is what you insinuated in your reply. You can read through the 1000's of posts here and in SF regarding this issue, quite a few posts basically said the same thing I did....
Anyways my post was meant as a counter point to new members who are often told "Dude this statue is perfect you got to buy it"
As for XM's statues, for the extra cost your not only get better QC but your also getting rarity, with only 500 made these statues become a lot more valuable down the road once they sell out, maybe that doesn't mean anything to you but it does for other people who like to collect rare statues.
Anyways I don't expect perfection from SS, there QC has been hit and miss since I've been collecting their statues. But when they do miss big IMO I will call them out for it...
To be honest it's not as hit and miss as all that. They put out a huge amount of product and for every statue that has QC issues there are a great many that don't. For the Batman statue, I was willing to accept the issue it came with because, as I said, it wasn't nearly as bad as some made it out to be. As for rarity, that's not why I collect, never has been with anything I've collected, but to counter that statement, I did just get my Punisher EX PF earlier this year for $360 and only 350 were made. It's not like everything has a high ES and it's not like you should have pay over retail market to get it either. I just see a lot of people bashing SSC, and some of it I completely Understand(I've even done so over what I see is unnecessary price increases), and other times I think its overblown garbage put out by people that have nothing better to do or are only happy when doing so.
