    Nah. The kitchen table was a preorder bonus if you were one of the first 37 to pay.

    I can corroborate this, I went out to get my copy of Eris from the mailbox and they had dropped an entire kitchen table on top of the box, crushing it.

    I love this figure. Fingers still scare me but it poses so well and has such an interesting transformation that I don’t think I could hate it if I tried. 62563EAD-453E-471A-9AF3-1968EE010118.jpeg

    After 12 days in transit this deadly beauty finally arrived at my doorstep yesterday. Everything seems pristine and error free so far, but I have yet to transform her and really go over her to check for any QC defects. First impressions out of the box: she feels quite sturdy and solid and she has an imposing shelf presence. Barring any future mishaps I might discover with my copy, I'm quite happy with another fantastic release from MMC. I can't wait to see what else they have in store for this line. Now to get to work on adding some panel lining to her.

    FYI - I ordered Eris on June 6 with the cheaper shipping option, PSX shipped her out on the 7th, and she arrived on the 19th via USPS. Par for the course within their usual shipping time frame. My last PSX purchase, Optus Pexus which included free shipping, more or less took about the same time.

    I completely agree with everything you said. Cheese-cakey would be more firebird nicce (arcee) figure.

    Yeah, this 100%. Robert’s woulda never allowed anything exaggerated (art wise) to be in MTMTE. If I recall, he also spoke out against Nicee when she was first revealed.

    The Flame Toys Windblade-in-a-thong was also a little out there (until they “censored it.” There is a “time and place,” for these things — and it isn’t on official merchandise and on things being sold that are supposed to really and accurately portray the character.

    Bwahaha. I was called a “Puritan,” even by some zealot in the official section because I called people out on it — honestly — if some of these people only knew!

    I own a Nicee as well as a shit ton of other adult collectibles, however …

    Time and place.

    I went ahead and reattached the chest until I get the replacement. The robot mode is still pure “please step on me” energy.

    It’s one of the two connectors near the bottom. Not as major as some things I’ve seen so I can’t complain too much.

    One of the pin covers on her ankle joint fell out. Or perhaps it was never there and I just failed to notice. Very annoying. Check your copies.

    I’ve had mine since Saturday. This figure just screams “pose me!” And can accomplish basically any pose you can think of. Mine has been issue-free and all the joints except the side to side waist (which still isn’t “loose” just not very tight) are exceptional. A few are almost too tight, particularly her thumb ball joints. Done the transformation a few times, I was a bit worried about the chest part but all seems fine so far.

    Overall I’d say this is one of my favorite figures I own. Keep them coming MMC.

    Fixing her side-to-side movement is pretty easy - Her ass is a plastic flap you can pop out by slipping a tool under the top, revealing 3 screws - Unscrew those (careful, her legs will fall off if you're holding her by the chest,) and you can see her torso side-to-side screw. Just tighten that a bit and you're golden, or tighten it a bit and drop some Kiki etc in there for longer-term (probably?) fix. Takes like, 3-4 minutes.

    I had some similar looking smudge on mine, but it cleared right off with a rag and some cleaner.

    Mine took four days between "UPS handing off to USPS at post office XYZ" and "USPS accepting it from UPS at post office XYZ" but just updated a bit ago to say delivery tomorrow.
