Maybe I didn't notice this before on the prototype but didn't her shorts have some thickness to it before? based on the in hand pictures her bottoms look like body paint and not actual shorts... seems there should of been some sort of sculpting to give them a little depth... her corset was sculpted to show depth so I'm a little surprised they didn't do the same with the shorts.
Otherwise statue looks great...
She's here # 64/3500. Have a couple of issues with mine. Her face had smudges on it and there is a small chip on her face. I was able to clean up the smudges by gently using a rubber eraser (the close up photo still shows a little bit of smudge on her chin and on the top of left side of her lip, I was able to clean it off completely), the chip I'm not too concerned about as you can't see it from a distance and if anything almost add a battle damaged look to her ( You can see it in the close up photo under her left eye). The other issue I had was a small tip of the hair was broken off, going to have to glue it back on.
Overall, I like her, though she is going to be a pain to display with that long spear.
Sorry for the crappy photos, took it using my cell phone at work under crappy lighting conditions.

If I wasn't able to get rid of the smudges, I definitely would have. The other two issues I can deal with, one I can fix, one I don't mind.
As to the Flex vs. Pay debate, I think Flexing actually gives you more options. I tend to flex pay as it's a convenient way for me to amortize the cost of the piece over time and the flex is generally the first orders shipped. People have also brought up the notion of being allowed to pay for an item in full in advance of the shipment, which California Law prevents.
For those who want to full pay in advance, why not put down a huge deposit, say $393 for a $399 piece, and then flex pay at $1.00 a month for the remainder of the time? You'll be first in line for shipping, have already mostly paid for your piece so you're not waiting for a $400 charge that may come at any time in a given 3-6 month window (which is my experience on flexpay).
I've only bought the Batman Premium Format and the Wonder Woman Premium Format on flexpay and both times I had the option of placing a larger initial deposit.
Just my thoughts.
Is her head crown mean't to have blemishes (looks like finger prints)?
I was wondering the same thing. Not very clean looking.
Could be battle damaged.
