Mine came in! I agree, the pictures make the weathering look worse. One of my pistons came disconnected, fixed it. Not worried about replacing. Happy to have My C-3PO. Also the stand isn't as high as I thought and he still fits in the detolf, may modify it or get a different base eventually though.
I have a few RC customs. One I made, that's over weathered and one I bought. But I am going to replace that one as the Headsculpt is woefully under scaled.
