 More Cheshire Cats on the way... Check out vinylpulse for the story.
I really like the light blue one with black eyes, but I think I am going to have to pass on these. I already have three cats, and most of these designs are pretty unoriginal. The pirate one is the exception. Apparently, there are two designs that aren't pictured. Perhaps they'll be more interesting.

Too many releases. Too much other stuff to focus on.
Fortunately it was easy to say no to Disney.

Another fucking colourway overdose! 
Don't these guys realise that drip feeding 'em in builds some sense of anticipation and satisfaction when you get hold of one . . . instead of mindfuckin' everybody into submision . . . Imagine goin' completist on that lot

I have the black gid version. It is awesome in every respect. No problem with quality.
What problems did yours have (and which version was it)?

it's a poorly made figure with a sloppy paint job
it had slight scratches and scuffing on it as well.
overall i was very unimpressed with it, especially for the price tag

also forgot...
the huge design flaw of cutting the grooves in the figure for the stripes
on mine, the paint was gummed up in some of the grooves. really sucked to try and pull those out of there

Sorry to hear there were problems with some of these. Again, I was notably impressed with the quality on mine. No scuffs - really nice vinyl. Maybe just lucky...???

I wouldn't like it as well without the grooves for the stripes, particularly since the black one is basically monotone. The grooves really set the stripes off. (I can see how they might get in the way if you are going to try to sand the figure down, but I am not sure that is a design flaw.)
