Re: Rogue

I'm guessing everyone had one of those "QC PASSED" stickers on the outside of the styrofoam box, right? I would really like to know what that means when garbage like this makes it to collectors' hands. Seriously, I want to know the specific criteria used to evaluate quality control if this is not an issue in their eyes. Missing a head? Accidentally packaged up the wrong statue entirely?

Those stickers are actually for the styrofoam, not the statue. :lol
 
Re: Rogue

The funny part was when I was opening mine I took a picture and thought to myself usually this sticker is the kiss of death for a statue regarding QC issues...:(

There's my K.O.D. QC sticker...:monkey2

Just a taste of what you get when you see the QC sticker.

That damn eyeliner really sucks. Dammit. I was beating myself up for passing on this for another and now I think I dodged a bullet after my Indy and Rocketeer issues...
 
Re: Rogue

got a response from SSC, they'll investigate..

Im just a little worried about the remaining xmen PF line. if Rogue was the last one out and she came out like this, then I'd commision someone to fix her for sure. Since she's early out its probably better to re-think my hobby and just settle with inhand pics before blindly preordering.
 
Re: Rogue

King Darkness, I am sorry but i can't stop laughing at these pics. :rotfl:lol:rotfl
It's AWFUL!!! For me this statue was all TnA from the get go. I always thought the face and hair sculpt were terrible. Butt this pushed it waaay over! Rogue's got butt'er face.

This is the funniest thing I have ever received from Sideshow, not funny "ha ha", more like funny "____ you".

What a ____ing joke.


____ you too Sideshow.

"Each piece is individually painted and finished, each with its own unique quality and detail that is the trademark of a handcrafted Sideshow Collectibles product." ???
 
Re: Rogue

I don't know about the rest of you but something about this statue says that she can be saved. I know that we shouldn't have to put extra cash into these statues, but unlike any other damaged I get the feeling once she's saved and showed off many collectors will take that route. At the end of the day she still beautifully sculpted and last but not least "ROGUE!"

:lol...Yeah it's handcrafted alright, jerk off handcrafted when it comes to her eyeliner.
 
Re: Rogue

That looks like 2 completely sculpts? The chin on the production piece is way different then the final sculpted. :slap

bro, look at her right eye..all her features are grossly misshapen...there is no excuse for this kind of neglect when people are paying hundreds of dollars for these products
 
Re: Rogue

yeah it can be saved, once Sideshow refunds at the bare minimum $100.. because thats how much its gonna cost to fix.

I overlooked the problems with my other pieces such as Nightcrawler, Black Panther, Ms. Marvel, Lady Deathstrike Dio, Namor Ironman Dio, Psylocke Comiquette... but this is just beyond ridiculous. I'll be even more pissed if they tell me that they are "out of stock" and no replacements are available... I got an incomplete statue. Why the hell does this cost more than SheHulk, Gambit, Ms Marvel, Wolverine and majority of the fine comiquettes I've purchased?

They should be paying people to accept these not the other way around.
 
Re: Rogue

Sweet lord Im crapping myself here in the UK & in Europe we pay Waaaay over the odds for these pieces and we now have to worry about paints like the ones that have been posted in this thread !!!

This is an expensive piece, and its a roll of the dice now too see if you get "goggle" eyes and "makeup like a $10 whore" if I wasnt going to be overly picky before . . . . I sure as hell am now !!
 
Re: Rogue

It's almost getting to the point where larger pieces it's better to see in-hand shots and maybe pay a little extra then to order blindly. Some of these are really bad....

I understand the frustration, but I don't see where paying more for the piece later is a better plan on high demand items. Even with this Rogue, which is currently getting crapped on...people are still hesitating to send it back/sell it. I still think this could fetch a minimum $100 profit on ebay even with the falling out...so it still is probably worth pre-ordering high demand items...In the absolute worst case scenario you can recoup your money...
