When you pay $500 or so for a statue and understand that they are all individually hand painted, you do know that slight errors may be present, but that it should be pretty close to perfect.<\/p>\n<p>All prior F4F statues of mine have been flawless and I really like the company.  My Samus Aran just happened to have issues that are probably rare for the piece, but ones that when I shared them with the company, they were under full agreement that my statue did not meet their standards of quality&#8230;thus recommending go through with this process.<\/p>\n<p>Here is to my Samus Aran replacement being a perfect one!
