Mine came today and I must admit - like Nuka - I'm rather underwhelmed by it. Which I'm really surprised at because the images Star Ace showed looked amazing. I think with Voldemort, Harry and Ron the Star Ace pitcures looked good, but the figures looked better in the flesh. This one, for me at least, is definitely the other way around.
And Nuka was also right about the coat - there is a HUGE amount of excess fabric, which again is surprising compared to the quality of the other Star Ace products.
I've pinned mine back for now, until I can have it adjusted.
They've also changed the shirt since prototype stage and this one is no where near like the real one. Or at least they've cut the fabric differently so there's no thin stripes as per their NYCC figure display.
All in all, it's a good figure and a nice addition to the collection, although rather expensive for what it is (here in the UK, at least) and not Star Ace's best of the bunch so far - again, only my opinion. I was expecting it to be my favourite by a long shot, but unfortunately it's not. The sculpt doesn't even float my boat, but that might be because reviewers said how amazing it was and I was expecting it to blow me away.
Well, I hope Mad-Eye will knock it out of the park. He's my fav' character.
