(Although maybe they have, I just spotted on the back of my steelbook it says 2012.)

Also if you look you can see what looks like where the box might have went through rollers on a conveyor.

The paint's a bit chipped on the right bikini cup but rather than trying to send something this size I think I can make an exception and pretend it's intentional roughing up.

Overall I like it, it's different although for how little you get with just the bust, a steelbook, an artcard and game I'm glad I didn't pay ?90 for it, the ?70 I paid seems much more reasonable.

Haha, although I feel sorry for the folk doing the painting of the bikini and all that if they didn't have much of a stomach for gore.

EDIT: I said ?90 above but I notice on Amazon the price has jumped to ?102.


EDIT 2: What artcards did you all get with yours? I've just spotted something odd about unboxings and mine, the ones I've seen so far are different from one another.

For example I watched one there and they got the image of the characters silhouetted against the red background, blank on the back on rough card; then I watched another and it was a guy in a hat on a pier on glossy paper with stuff printed on the back [this one was already in the steelbook, mine was loose] and mine is the same guy in the hat only on rough card and blank on the back.
mate me order was fine box statue the lot, as for price point it may not seem like a lot for your money but the statue must suck a lot of the cost

happy with paying 70 though
