    Does lack of a brown shipper box affect the resale value of a statue?

    Yes, I know they don't take up that much more space and can be collapsed but I was considering of throwing some out anyway. Do you guys feel that these are important for resale value? Do people actually care?

    Does Sideshow actually charge if you don’t send pics of destroyed items?

    I am just curious if they actually will charge your account if they don’t get your pictures of destroyed parts. Is it all just empty threats or do they actually charge your credit card?

    Any 1/4 scale collectors do their collecting while living in an apartment?

    I live in a one bedroom apartment and not a house and while I only collect Star Wars 1/4 and I am pretty picky, I still feel like space is a giant problem. I have a wall dedicated to besta units and that works okay but the boxes are a huge issue. Thinking of renting space to store them. Just...

    Premium Format Obi-Wan PF battery adapter problem.

    Hi guys. I've recently purchased this Obi-Wan PF from a fellow collector on these boards and sadly the power adapter was not included in the box. I've contacted the seller and while he's searching for the missing adapter, I figured I'd make this post just in case her can't find it and I'll...

    Any ideas on storing switch out parts for statues?

    I have an empty drawer and was going to place them in there but need a suggestion on some type of small bubble wrap type of bags or anything similar. Something that can protect the delicate paint and structure basically. Looked on Amazon but didn't see much. Maybe I missed it. Any suggestions?

    Are you happy with the paint applications / condition of all your statues?

    Premium Format Nevermind...

    I'm very surprised that Sideshow has not done this Premium Format yet. It is definitely one of the more popular looks for Luke Skywalker and is the outfit that he was wearing during the saga's most famous moment. The switch out parts for bloody head and severed limb would be amazing and the...

    I am considering of buying this on eBay and the seller has informed me that the eyes on C3PO do not light up AS brightly as the lights on R2-D2. He said they're a bit dimmer than R2's lights. I am curious if that's normal and all the models have that or is this a bad sign and should I stay...

    I noticed that some use gloves whenever handling their statues...

    While watching something YouTube videos, I noticed that some use gloves while handling their statues. I know that the acid from the oil of your fingers can corrode the paint over time but..... wouldn't that take years of touching the statues with sweaty hands? Just seems a bit OCD to me or...
