Thanks! Aliens wouldn't have stood a chance if Bruce was there.

wow....pretty speechless at the amount of issues people have had.
I see Enterbay have updated their site again. Order now and 'dispatch in September'.
I think I may try and order one of their last batches. Hopefully they'll have had 4+ months to work through everything.
I'm fine with it looking spot on doing natural poses with a rubber body. EB has been knocking their latest releases out of the park in terms of character sculpt likeness, clothing & accessories & I hope they keep up the fantastic work.I'm yet to see any dynamic poses either - he looks great just standing there an' all, but this is a Bruce Lee figure
... rubber bodied figures aren't renowned for dynamic poses
Sweet! My pair should be en routejust ordered the extra body from the EB site, and yes it does come with the black socks lol price was $62 USD plus shipping and its in stock
I don't think that makes much sense. The cost EB will incur on shipping would make that an even less viable decision. Seeing as the dispatch date has been set back, I would've thought it was because of the high amount of issues the Beijing, and subsequently the HK initial releases have resulted in, that they would specifically be addressing their QC issues.
Seeing as only a few people have these, and many have had issues, that they aren't able to post more dynamic poses because the figures are in transit back to and from EB. I don't frequent other sites, so you may have a point, but in any case, rubber bodied figures aren't renowned for dynamic poses, which makes me more worried that HT will release their rubber bodied BL figure as a GoD version.

I just got in touch with a seller on eBay that might be able to do a custom 1/6 sized towel in any measurements for my Bruce. So in case anyone is interested then PM me and I will forward you to her. I was actually thinking of maybe getting two or three towels (if the seller does a good job and the price is right) - with one of the towels in the same Game of Death yellow colour and black stripes....
Y4NK33 PL4N3T;3608448Hehe I'm not seeing what you're seeing said:'which company is better'[/I] hoopla and just enjoy these figures for awhile
EB picked up the shipping tab for at least one freak here, but that's not their policy. Their site states that return shipping comes at the customer's expense. If they decided to amend their return policy for just this figure - which clearly is suffering from more than a reasonable number of QC issues - that'd be great PR on their part.
If they made some sort of statement about attending to the QC issues, that's also be great PR - though they likely won't because of the loss of face I guess.
You say that you're worried about the HT rubber body being destined for a GoD version, but that brings up the unresolved discussion about licensing again. On licensing, someone mentioned a while back that EB's own Bruce Lee license was either up for renewal or due to expire. There has been a bit of chat about what HT might do next, but not a lot of speculation about what EB might do. Time is right for The Big Boss dammit.
Somehow I doubt they'll spend a single minute from now until then fixing their QC issues. They'll just rely on everyone to ship stuff back from the dodgy boxes. I'm yet to see any dynamic poses either - he looks great just standing there an' all, but this is a Bruce Lee figure Maybe when EB get their separate bodies out people will feel they can take some more risks with their poses...

That may be so, but I thought it was also their policy to pay for the return shipping back to you. That would, again, make it an expensive decision to allow their product to be sent out 'as is'.
As you said, it would be great if they took a more active approach to their own predicament and posted something official, particularly on their website, rather than their facebook.
And again, as you say, it's an unresolved speculative discussion as to what or what not may happen, but licencing never stopped Ht's before.
I have a feeling that EB will address some of the issue with this GOD release. Bill from Enterbay personally responded to the complaint/improvement letter I sent, and told me that he will ensure to forward my concerns to their development team. But, of course he is not going to tell me to get lost cuz he doesn't see any issues. One can only hope.
And you're right, and as discussed before, this GOD cannot handle dynamic/extreme action poses too well compared to previous BL bodies. But I think that is by design. It is designed to accentuate more subtle poses. Here is a "dymanic pose" I was able to attain.

Awesome!!!!
The pupils I was refering to are on the BD head. The newer head I got is definitely better.
I want a 3rd moving eyes BD head nowI would guess from the head it's the normal version, might be wrong. Eyes look better IMO. I also noticed the paint seems heavier on the sculpt, which it is on my normal version.
Cool pic GungFu, but photoshop?
Btw, I had to rotate the pointing had in photoshop because it wasn't pointing up as much as I wanted to
The eyeballs themselves are 100% not the same though. One has lots of tiny red veins and the pupils are slightly smaller like arroves head, whilst the expo edition (at least my one) didn't.
I think I did post pics of both heads, but the camera I use doesn't catch the detail the way others do, so it doesn't really help I think the BD heads I have are similar, but Arrovve's close up photo of the BD head he has, does look ..... differentI think Larry did post pics of side by side stuff of the Expo and normal edition, however he said both heads were same so he didnt post pics of them... the suit however was strikingly different

Thanks. I ordered 1. I was thinking of ordering 2 to save on shipping, but couldn't figure out how to add 2 in a shopping cart. So I'm guessing perhaps it can't be done & that you have to order things individually. I didn't realise it also came with the metal bracelet I think the price is good considering what you get & the prices that are up on ebay Thanks EB for including the shoes, socks & braceletFor those interested to know, EB told me that the included parts are:
1 pair of black socks
1 pair of Yellow Onitsuka Tiger GoD shoes
1 metal bracelet
The price is $62

I don't understand sorry. I get to the screen to order the item from Enterbay. Only option is to 'Buy Now', I don't see an 'Add To Cart' option or any way to order multiple items at once.Well you CAN order two and save on shipping, you have to click on the link of the item within the first screen form... it will give you the option to take the requisite no you want
Blame the set, not meAlso regarding the the BD head, Larry you already HAVE a HK version BD head... dont be so greedy
