I have three ordered, and can't wait to get them. It really looks pretty good to me, and I imagine in-hand it will look better than the pics (which I appreciate you guys posting). Since the hair's removable, I might wig one of them.
One thing that's not being really addressed is that there was only going to be one head. Then only after a bunch of people started whining once the kits got in-hand did KP try to find an alternative and approached ML. Until then, the original head was all there was ever going to be. Now, ML...
I had both hand pegs break, but I think it's no fault of KP's. I didn't use the hot water trick (I've only needed to a couple times), and I should have. It's not a big deal, because I'm just going to epoxy the hands onto the round part of the wrist where the pegs fit and the vambraces will...
I'm going to sound like a KP cheerleader, and I'm cool with that--I kind of am one--but if you look at the new sculpt and compare it to the one from ML, you'll see it's very close. What we're missing here is a paint job. This is a WIP pic. Take a look at the one from ML in black and white and...

It's crazy how much the scar on his cheek stands out in pictures, when I can barely see the one on mine in normal lighting. Also, about the arms--definitely take the jacket off before messing around with them--the right arm on mine was turned the wrong way at the elbow inside his jacket. It...
They're doing both, but they've decided to release the rooted version first.
EDIT: Modern Life's also updating their site this month. They'll spill the beans once that's ironed out, plus you can order straight from them, if you prefer.
