Nice pics are one thing, but seeing it in person is another. If somebody asked me what my favourite figure/statue was in my collection, this would definitely be a competitor for that spot. The head sculpt, stellar. Paint app on it, brilliant. Tailoring, pose, weathering, base .... etc, impressive. I've only inserted the rifle hand, & the magnet seems fine on that. Other than physically knocking it, I'm not that concerned about it falling off on it's own. Also, I think the stubble is fine as is. For now, mine is posed without the bandolier & scarf (wasn't satisfied with the way I was futzing it :lol), & it looks nice that way as well.

Nitpicks. I seem to have some tiny paint flaws on the sculpt (what I presume to be missing or chipped paint here & there), but I don't think I'm going to bother SSC about it this time. They aren't super noticeable, but I know they are there, but I'm pretty happy with it overall. Other things that I think could have been better, is maybe not having a sticker watch :)lol), having the ring on the necklace be metal, & perhaps more detail on the weapons. Pretty minor things compared to the overall impressiveness of the statue.

Question. The henley has 2 top buttons on the right, & 2 bottom buttons on the left, correct?

guys awesome setups!! I must say i finally got mine yesterday (damn ups got here @ 8PM)..i truly love how it looks..i actually set it up without the ring so I've gotta go back and dig the box out and find that…truly truly a great piece..the paint app on mine luckily was spot on, the arm like someone else said doesn't seem like it would fall off without touching it..only negative would be having to assemble everything lol i had to tighten the straps on just about everything and damn those things are tiny...
 
and also btw i woulda never noticed (or maybe looked closely enough) that the inside of the watch is a sticker without you guys mentioning it..not sure how i feel about that..dont mind how it looks but i wonder in say ten years or what have you or depending on temperatures if that sticker would ever lose its grip, etc…but aside from that it i don't mind really..ooh and if anyone cares or is keeping track #38 out of 500!
 
Sideshow is sending me a new AK47 arm and new head. The head had a paint chip and the AK was missing the sight. I have to detroy them when the new ones come. Hopefully they are in better shape. My sticker watch is also not centered, but then I would need a new base. Think I should mention it? do they replace numbered bases?
 
I'm not, no. I'm done collecting for the most part. Just a few more things and that is all. You?

Yeah I have it ordered and I think I'll keep it. I'm really scaling back myself as well but I like this new version of Lara.
