I highly doubt she is, she's mostly just an overall gaming collector from what i've seen.

I'm not going this one myself, it does look good though! Lots of people did like the Jak & Daxter series, but myself i haven't been a big fan of it. i did pre-order the Dragonborn statue from Gamingheads though!

I'm a fan, just not a massive one. Allan on the other hand is a huge fan of J&D (as well as a few other characters he'd like to see in this line).

We were just "general" collectors to begin with (focusing on our favourite games, but buying other stuff we're less interested in if we had spare money), but now that things are coming out in a ridiculously fast succession, we're having to just stick to the things we really like, from games/franchises we love (and being that there's two of us, that's still quite a lot!) xx

So much ND stuff is out! I think I'll have to buy it down the line.

I'm really particular about my figures/statues.


Does anyone own multiple statues from this company? I want to know what the quality control for Gaming Heads is and how close retail is to the prototype picture.

I think it looks pretty good, but from my experience in figure collecting is that some companies don't reproduce as good of a quality as their protoype pictures.

Would've considered this if I didn't already have the Shenmue Ryo statue on order from F4f!

Still, tempting...

I only have the Portal Turret, and it came absolutely destroyed So I'm waiting on a replacement xx

That damage looked to be from the factory right?

Not shipping damage?

[vhal_x]

Yeah, although I'm on statue collecting forums, and apparently what happened to mine (and Cosmic's) turrets is a very rare and unusual thing. Majority of the time the statues are perfect from the factory. So really hoping my next statue purchase builds up the trust a bit.

I also recently (well... in May) got the Ganondorf Exclusive statue from F4F. It was damaged so waiting on a replacement for that but it was damaged in shipping rather than in the factory, and had it not been damaged, it would have been perfect as the paint application, etc was all beautiful xx

Always good to hear people's experiences with companies

Hopefully all goes well with your replacements

Cheers

The only downside is that replacements take months, as they have to make them all from scratch. Hoping I won't have too long to wait for them xx
