Just a quick update on my display guys...basically i have stretched out the sand to cover the entire base, which i think looks a lot better and i have also added his utility bag and climbing rope to his left hand side. Below are 2 pics, the top pic is how it was and the bottom pic is how it is now with stretched sand to cover the corners and added utility bag and climbing rope....

Definitely never gonna buy from EB again!!! The lack of communication and wait time from their CS is ridiculous!!! The QC needs major improvement and their Repair/Exchange Department is way too slow. Just waiting now, to see if they send me a decent repair, or junk.
What exactly was wrong with your Rambo deathasylum? Do you think knowing what you know now and waiting as long as you have that you'd have rather kept it now and make do with it or just asked for a full refund?
Well my Rambo body had a broken right shoulder joint where the arm flopped around and could not be posed. Anytime the arm was moved it would immediately fall and the shoulder joint could not stay hidden within the rubber torso piece (completely loose.) Also, the rubber seam under the right armpit was split apart down to the middle of the torso. Not sure if it was lack of glue, or something else, but it was unacceptable for a $400.00 purchase.
Knowing how EB operates and handles repairs, I would have gotten a full refund and shipped this thing back to them. It is an awesome looking figure, but I have a hard time supporting a company that puts the customer last. Chances are I would have probably Pre-Ordered this guy from BBTS though because I'm a huge fan of Sly & my T-800 Arnie would be lonely.

Definately back you up for returning it mate, damage sounds severe for a $400 figure! Did you not ask for a full refund or was it their decision to try to repair it? Why the heck did they not just issue you out with a new one rather than make you wait the same amount of time it takes for a woman to get pregnant and then have the baby (thats 9 months for those under 16 members
Poor Customer Services EB!
HEy Robert,have you you checked the hip and knee joint?The reason i ask is because just like the T-800 some Rambo figures suffer from hip and/or knee joints not being pushed in all the way through.That causes the lop-sided stance and it's especially noticeable with Rambo since his ankle articulation is limited.It's an easy fix that's been posted on the T-800 thread.I'm very lucky cause i didn't have that problem with neither figure.As for the waist articulation on Rambo,it sux!He actually does have a mid and lower torso articulation but his vinyl skin is what stops those joints from working the way they should.If they had made the skin thinner or used the same method that they did with the T-800 but i guess they didn't want too many visible joints.Personally,i think both figure are INCREDIBLE(T-800 being the better one)and having these in person makes the wait for Bats and Joker even harder.I can't go back to 1/6 scale after seeing how much better life is on the 1/4 scale side!
I think so anyway!

I have asked again and he has said that there maybe a possibility of making others but i wouldnt have thought it would be a huge amount, maybe 2 or 3. I'll keep you updated as soon as any confirmation comes through
