CROM!! Nice collection you got going there wolf, like that snow giant statue a lot too.
I finally got a chance to open mine. Really dynamic pose, the statue looks great. Mine unfortunately is broken. The piece where my skeletons head is supposed to attach is broken.
Got tracking today for this and Lobo.
It's a very nice piece, or at least it would be if mine wasn't full of issues. The magnet strength on both the sword and scythe hand is so weak that they literally threaten to fall out of the arms, there's paint missing on both Conan and the skeleton warrior, and my mace arrived broken, just to top it all off.
If you get a perfect one this is a great piece, sadly though mine is far from perfect. Which after waiting for two years is more than a little disappointing.
That said, the paint that is there is clean and well applied, so at least there's that.
What's the story behind this comic, one of the first to come out?Just scored a few days ago from my LCS.

Almost got a complete comiccollection of Conan in Norwegian(1984-2012).

Sorry to hear that. It seems that quite a few have had theirs arrive with this part broken. They probably should have made the skeleton head and neck a separate piece. Hopefully SS will sort it out for you.
The weapons are a nice change of pace from sword and axe. The kilt and belt are outstanding also. It really looks good up on a high shelf. Love this rendition of Conan.
Yeah, it was the ex, and no, haven't heard anything back yet...but I wanted to take photos first, so I've only recently contacted them.
See what happens, though I'm not terribly optimistic given the we edition size.
Just realized that due to the long lead time, currency fluctuations and the sudden insane shipping cost,
I can actually get this for over $150 cheaper from a local retailer (Melbourne, Oz) than if I ordered directly from Sideshow ...and that's counting eating the NRD !! (otherwise it would have been $200 cheaper!!!) ...bizzaro world pricing....
Just pulled the trigger on the regular edition, don't need the sword.
I still have my eyes on the upcoming 1/3 PCS Arnie but this is the definitive Robert Howard Conan for me.
