    Statue Sideshow Asajj Ventress Mythos statue 1/5

    Have a question to any that have this statue. How stable is it? Is it prone to tilting backwards? I ask because, I preordered this in Jan22, right after the first batch sold out. It arrived a couple weeks ago (June) and was very top and back heavy; it tilted back on me putting the hands on...

    Snowtrooper Premium Format

    That bit of armor is supposed to be on the other arm. If the 2 arms are different then they are swapped, otherwise you have 2 of the same; they should be different.

    HELP - Cleaning fabric on a PF

    I used the tide pens to get yellow stains out of the white dress on my Leia PF, but that was all white. You could try it in a small non visable area first and take extreem measures to avoid getting any on the colored fabrics (like plastic wrap). Also, use a damp towel or q-tip to blot out the...

    Premium Format Darth Malgus

    Someone’s exclusive waitlist is about to kick in. Sideshow would only offer a chump change discount or full refund for the 2 globs of glue on the my statues right arm (they actually chipped off and became 2 unpainted spots). I was told no replacements were available, but I did not believe them...

    Han Solo PF...

    Thanks, it’s an awesome statue. This was the one that taught me about the exclusive version; pre-ordered weeks late and did not find out about the exclusive version till months later (no shot on the wait list). It would have run me around $350 if I had managed to get it at the time direct (with...

    Han Solo PF...

    I am curious about the going rate for the exclusive Han Solo rebel hero PF. After years of looking I finally just got one un-opened for $250 shipped. Beautiful statue, I have the reg as well, the price seemed fair and my will power collapsed. I know I paid less than retail, and a little curious...

    Will Sales Tax Impact Your Collecting?

    I am sure at least some of you are following the progress of the law requiring internet businesses to collect sales tax for all states, not just the ones they have a presence in. Personally, I have no doubt the IS going to happen. Would this effective price increase impact what and/or how much...

    polystone statue cleaning tips

    I use large make-up brushes. Similar to paint brushes just larger with longer bristles, un-used of course, bought new for this purpose (yes you have to man up and shop in the cosmetics department). They work well to get in to tight spots, just work slow and watch the handle. For a stubborn area...

    Premium Format Captain Rex Premium Format

    I need a little help from those that have this statue. After a hard fought battle to get the head on the black ball joint, I have found that when turning the head the ball joint has a slight twist in the neck/chest that moves before the head turns on the ball joint. Basically the neck turns...

    Aayla Secura Premium Format

    Try wiping off the connectors on the statue, base and ac plug; with a little alcohol on a q-tip if possible. Many have had a slight film or paint residue that prevents contact, keeping the saber from lighting up.

    Aayla Secura Premium Format

    Sorry if this has been announced already, but while at con today I saw the light up feature for the light saber on Aayla and I am pretty sure it was the new cyber maul type blade. The saber blade had a tube inside the acrylic with a little nub on the end; I checked when I got home and cyber...

    1/6th Scale Sideshow Boba Fett Figure

    Pics after a good deal of futzing, like several hours. No hiding with the arms here. I tried to focus on the vest and highlight the remaining blocky-ness. Alright, flame on!

    1/6th Scale Sideshow Boba Fett Figure

    I thought someone would have done this already. The vest is easy to remove and is kind of sturdy considering; its the clear plastic backing that makes it sturdy. To remove the vest take off the hands and gauntlets (these look very fragle), pop off the head and remove screws from the back (these...

    Help with Luke and Leia PF

    Not sure about the super glue, but Tide To Go stain pens are awesome on fabrics that cant be washed; did wonders on Leias white dress. Good luck.

    Clone Trooper Premium Format Figure.

    Pics as requested. It was a pain getting the head into position so I am not anxious to move it. I think the head is looking as far down as it will go. Just to get these out of the way: "Those pics are no good." "Is it the flash that makes it look bad." "The paint apps look terrible, I am glad I...

    Clone Trooper Premium Format Figure.

    Received my ex on Friday, and spent all day assembling a new Besta to put it on (try to get pic later). WARNING: The head is adjustable and will probably arrive in some wonky position (mine was looking up). You have to really apply some force to get the head to move; you can feel the joint at...

    CCGArmory.com a trustworthy dealer?

    I had a small issue with them recently (1 incorrect item shipped of 3). I received the correct item but not return shipping $$$ for the wrong item, not worth the hassle to get from them. The only response I got from them was through the CS chat feature when they were "online" (or when I...
