Not problematic. It just needs extra steps to make sure it doesnt deteriorate. It needs extra care in comparison to like cotton.
For what it's worth, Kit did comment on FB that he's familiar with the people behind Eternal, and their work is pretty high quality.
Of course it is not my money, but even though these other versions look pretty cool, I personally like the overall look of Joost’s version more. So I would get whichever one you like the most visually. Yes as some have pointed out there is a considerable price difference at play here, however I always get the item I think looks better or is better quality because over time I think the initial price difference is less and less important …my 2 centsI’ve got one payment left, and then the shipping, on Joost’s version. Should I cancel his and go with this one? It’ll free up $650 AUD… this one won’t be more than $350 AUD right?
Haha that’s fine. I appreciate your two cents.Of course it is not my money, but even though these other versions look pretty cool, I personally like the overall look of Joost’s version more.

Ooops I didn’t see that you had already decided. I hope you enjoy your figure when it arrives.
Yeah, I did the same thing, except I used the money I had put onto the Iron Scavenger to get the 1/12 BvS Batmobile, so I feel less awful.
Correction. You didn’t cause me to cancel… I would’ve found out sooner rather than later haha.
So you actually canceled your Jazzinc order after paying on it for 13 months? Did you get any kind of refund? I understand your issue with the size and not wanting to display outside of a cabinet, but at this point wouldn't you have been better off taking the hit on shipping and getting the Iron Scavenger so you could sell it and recoup most of that cost? Without a refund your actual cost for the TE version is $340USD + those 13 months of Jazzinc payments. Assuming a 15 month payment plan (I believe that's the max with Jazzinc) and current pricing that means you've already invested over $500 into your Vulture (or @$475 if you ordered before the price hike).
I did. I received everything I paid except $100 non refundable deposit. Re-selling it would mean charging the buyer for shipping (from all reports the figure is heavy)... plus the added stress of trying to sell it. Nah, I'm comfortable with my decision.
Oh OK, that's a different story. I wasn't familiar with Joost's cancellation policy. $100 is definitely worth it to not have to go through the bother of reselling & shipping it. But FYI - the Jazzinc shipping box for the Iron Scavenger is just large - it's not especially heavy. But I believe when calculating shipping cost carriers factor in the dimensions as well as the weight, hence the high cost.
Did you have to message them for the refund? I canceled on the website but have not gotten anything back yet.
I like movie Vulture look but, I can see why Hot Toys never solicited it and on into production. They probably didn't want the QC and logistics headache. I'll be making my own Vulture, some hybrid between movie and comics.
I did both. Emailed them and cancelled on the website.
I emailed them only. I recall reading somewhere on their site that you have to email them.
