I got an email the other day asking if I wanted to pay the rest of my Flexpay soon because Angel will be shipping soon. I can't wait to get him. I have all of the others, the only one that I didn't get the chance to get the exclusive of was Faith  It's a shame that Angel is the last statue of this line because I was really hoping for Xander, Cordelia and Giles to get the statue treatment. |

Keep an eye on eBay - maybe you will find Ex. Faith after all.  And I can't wait to get Angel as well. Will be paying the rest of my FlexPay with next payment on June 15th. ;D |

Reading through the Sideshowboard made me a bit worried. Ppls reporting issues on that Angel Statue. The gargoyle doesnt fit in the base, on some the gargoyle isnt leaning on the stone, there is a huge gap, the Angel is leaning forward, and their seems to be a general problem on the paintjob again. Seems like hes sloppy painted, eyelines-lashes are missing, till the asain touch on his eyes... getting worried now -.-

There is always a chance there might be an issue but why be worried before it actually happened? Wait till your arrives. Chances are; it will be awesome. And only a slim chance it might have some sort of problem. But no point getting worried for nothing now.  |

Well, its not like it keeps me up all night ^^ but returning the statue and shipping it back overseas would cause me a lot of trouble and of course a lot of extra coasts. But I had luck with the PF Buffy statue and I will have luck with this one too |

Hopefully you won't have to.
This is one of the reasons I prefer buying from Sideshow. They don't require sending back the faulty ones but ask you to smash it down and send them photos instead.

I got an email the other day from UPS and mine has shipped, it is supposed to arrive Thursday. The only issue is I work until 6 and a signature is required. I just hope that either someone comes home early or that UPS delivers after 6. @ba|1 I understand your concern especially after hearing of these issues. I had a minor issue with my Faith Tiki Statue that I got directly from them. The hand that held the jackal knife didn't have a long enough peg to be usable in her arm so I had to email them for a replacement. They made me send them a picture of the part in question and then they sent me a replacement in the mail. Hopefully there are no issues but if there are and they are minor then they can just send you a replacement piece and not charge you.

It's a shame that Angel is the last statue of this line because I was really hoping for Xander, Cordelia and Giles to get the statue treatment. Last? Well that's a fail. I'll prob sell mine then if thats all they are making! Anyone know of the 12" dolls are in scale with them? Maybe I'll get a custom Cordy made one day. |

Well today is the day that mine is out for delivery, they will most likely deliver it when no one is home like they usually do and expect a signature. Hopefully someone gets out on time for work because I don't get out until 6. I can't wait to add him to my collection and I hope that there are no defects with mine.

The 12" Dolls are in 1/6 format while those statues are 1/5 format, and the premium format is 1/4. |

Mine arrived today and I'm very pleased with it. So far no defects I can see and all parts fit in perfectly. Ended up leaving it with human head although Vamp head is also good. Just figured it would be more suiting for the pose to have the human head on. Will post pictures later on. |

I got mine today as well, someone actually got home just as the UPS delivery guy was about to leave. He is simply amazing and goes perfectly with the rest of my Statue Collection.
