Threezero Game of Thrones - 1/6 Jon Snow

[Mudblood]

Mine should be here today. I'm getting a bit of Colin Farrell in the Jon sculpt. The clothes look awesome.

Without looking at a reference image, the mouth and nose are what seem odd to me.

I just received notice from DHL about a "plastic textile item" coming from China.
They informed that it's valued at $50, gave me a tracking no and asked what exactly is inside,
so they know what to charge for customs fee.
I didn't even know what was inside so I thought it must be JS, since it was expected to ship this time of year.
After I gave the reply "plastic toy" to DHL, they wanted me to send them the receipt of what I payed for,
so they would know it's value proved on paper.
I told 'em I will not send any more info and I 'll refuse to accept the package.
Their reply was it's still in transit and when they receive it, they will send it back with no cost for the seller.
I plan to email 3 0 and inform them of what happened and instruct them to send JS via national postal service.
I don't intend to pay DHL any fee and prefer to wait another 2 months longer to receive it.
Has someone else got the same experience?

Just make a receipt for $5 and send them a copy of that. Tell them that the "$50" was clearly a typo. Then again, it's also nice to make them do more work without getting paid.

Just got mine delivered. Box is pretty damn heavy.

Anyone on the East Coast of the US get theirs yet? Wondering if I'll get mine in Jersey today.

 

[EVILFACE]

Yup, good sized box. Will open tonight.......off to bed.

Chances are you wouldn't unless you wrote to them to ask for it.

Well, got mine. Haven't opened Ghost yet, just going over Jon. Over all he's not bad, the weak point of the likeness are the eyes. They also look sleepy, and are painted sloppily in comparison to most HT eyes.

The outfit is very nice, but the rubber belt is odd. Loose threads ends sticking out everywhere on the cloth tunic. My biggest complaint are those clown boots... They've gotta go if I decide to keep it.

First impressions- Wow, the box is heavy. The slip boxer and box are are great. I almost wish I displayed my boxes because it looks so good. Opened up Ghost first and was impressed by the size and weight. It's like holding a Guinea pig or puppy. I'm not sold on the look of Ghost. It looks a bit skinny, not too fluffy, and the sculpt is weird. Ghost looks better from the side and not straight on. Glad I got the EX regardless.

First impressions on Jon- Wow, this figure stinks. As in it smells horrible. I think Ned smelled the same way, but this one was overpowering out of the box. Guess it's the rubber? I'm no expert on material smells. Hands and boots are a bit oversized, but it's just a minor nitpick. Glad we got extra pegs in each glove though. The clothes and accessories look great. If the belt had been leather, it would be one of the best looking figures made. The tailoring and weathering are fantastic. Not a fan of the almost rust/dirty weathering on Longclaw. Valyrian steel shouldn't look that way. I think it has black swirls/ripples, if I recall correctly.

I don't see much of Kit in the sculpt. Maybe season 1 Kit, but his face seemed to get more mature as the seasons went on. Maybe if it was repainted it would bring the likeness out, like with Ned. I'd like to see it more pale, some dirt, and with the scars on his face. I might have someone do a repaint before I go the custom route... Though I still would love to have Rocco do this in 3D.

Gee Whiz on Facebook is your best bet.

They said they would be checking the price of the item on the internet.
So probably they will find out I am lying.
After that I will surely have to pay their taxes, which I want to avoid.
Any chance of 3 0 sending it back via national postal service?
Or I am ..ewed?

Still no update on mine.

Ghost looks a little cartoonish maybe?

They will absolutely not use DHL if you ask them not to. They confirmed this to me earlier today on FB. Just explain the situation to Customer Service.

BTW, it doesn't matter what DHL or anyone else finds on the internet, what matters is what YOU paid. So even if they found something that someone is selling at $1000, you may have only paid $100 and that's what is supposed to be taxed.

I did e-mail and ask for it, they have not responded.

Just stopped home. Wasn't Jon Snow. I ordered first day so hopefully they respond to me soon.

Yeah, going off pics Ghost's face isn't right. Doesn't look like a realistic wolf.

Jon will be decent with some new boots but I might see what Ghost is selling for. If he's even up on Ebay yet.

 

[JonWes]

Still no word on mine. Says Processing on the site still. Ghost is not really up to par with the figures, but not bad. I'm excited to get this guy overall.
