Their site had problems because they were inundated with orders, some went through, some didn't. Big time bummer.

Nice job!
Congratulations on navigating all of that. I was too scared of f-ing up to even attempt it.
Please pictures when you get it. The paint on this one looked awesome. You can't see it as well on the X-ray but the skull has an great texture to it.

I grabbed one online somewhere and it definately wasen't no 2700 yen

I think he meant 2700 yen for just the shipping and the conversion from British Pounds to Yen. He wasn’t including the cost of the figure. But if you paid between $60 and $70 I’d say you got a very good deal considering how hard these will be to come by.

Yeah, I was a little underwhelmed with the ones I picked up.
Another example of less product for more money.
Would have preferred 6-7" height at that price point.

I knew they were going to be smaller which is good because they'll fit better in my collection. I might get a little mini display box to put them in on my desk next to my display.

quality of the piece makes up for the size.
maybe somebody will make a 2ft bootleg of this figure in fiberglass?

What's the size comparison to a Skullbrain? It's been so long since I've had a lighter that I can't get a very accurate impression of the size of that thing! But it does look great!

think about how a lighter fits in your fist
so would that make this figure in the 4-inch height range?
