I don't know if I'm reading this right... but I think they just flown through customs... no additional fees for me! Yaaay :D
After these wonderful news I just hope it gets here in good condition.
I might get it tomorrow or Friday.
Can't wait!
Wow, that statue sure looks amazing! I wish I could buy one too, but sadly I don't have the money.. And shipping to Finland would make it even more expensive. (I already ordered the Animated Series DVD a few days ago, anyway. )
But, congrats to everyone who have got it! It must be even prettier in it's real size and all.
The detail on the statue certainly is superb, but it's so blinking big! Not that I'm complaining, just more of it to love ...but where the Hell am I going to put it?! Guess I've finaly got motivation to have a clear out.
Also in case anyone was wondering, it got through to the UK with no customs charges.
lucky dogs with purcells sig.. nice silver pen.. droool.. (i love silver)
anyone else think the tie could have used an extra peg ? mine falls out and spins a bit
BTW got the new statue in no problems this time! WHOOT
In case anyone is interested Symbiote Studios sent this in an email this week.

Type in the code STYKMANSAVE in the promo code field of your cart to receive this gift.
"
ouch! It's till $15 just for shipping. I was expecting like $5.99
If your ordering the S+M statue, this is great, but not worth it to get it alone... (unless you actually like stykman, and personally I've never even heard of him...)
anyone else think the tie could have used an extra peg ?
Yeah, especially at the top since mine has a tendency to skew slightly to the left or right of the tie's knot (although that's partly because the left side of Max's head is pressing against the tie itself). Other than that, I couldn't be happier. The statue's fantastic.
I just ordered mine today, which to Aus is gonna cost me AUS$218 (ouch, US $139... damned exchange rate and exorbitant shipping costs), but SO worth it.
When I saw this was released via Kotaku last week I giggled and bounced up and down on my chair... til I worked out how much it was going to cost, and the fact I didn't have enough til my next pay day (Feb 15)...
... so I sold a bunch of Xbox 360 games and highly-limited edition DVD boxsets on eBay... I wanted it that much. Oh yes, I did.
Now if it's lost or damaged in transit I may just die. Seriously.
Love the pics everyone has posted! Gonna have to order mine when I get back home. I just hope its not sold out. Its been almost a month and I totally missed this thread.
anyone get an annoying black mark on the statue? i cant get mine out and never have dropped it and it was fine when shipped. I tried rubbing it off but it seems it might be a scratch showing the under grey/black. no clue..
im so afraid i just put the statue away.. not to be displayed safe n sound though!
You know, I have never come across someone with a copy of The Movies. Is it a good game or are the reviews right in calling it "meh?"
I thought it was a pretty decent game, plus I have the Stunts & Effects expansion pack. It cleverly has two gameplay elements with the movie making and the management of the park, although there is a slight disconnection between the two. However, the movie making tools are really neat and you can make some really clever movies if you put your mind to it.
Well whaddaya know? I just ordered one for me! I never believed this day would come.
Today was our family's official house cleaning day, and I was alone at home.. I decided to surprise my parents and clean up the whole house before them It took hours and I was quite exhausted after, but my mom got so delighted after getting back from work so she gave me the permission to order the statue!
I just hope my package will come home safely and unharmed. *dances around happily*
Hi all.

Here are all the parts unassembled
This statue doesn't use pegs but rather indentations to hold the characters, which is interesting
And here is the gaming world's most famous "couple", fully assembled
A word of praise to Symbiote Studios, they did a wonderful job in creating such a great art piece out of these two.
Also in case anyone was wondering, it got through to the UK with no customs charges.

BTW, how much do you think the statue is worth now that Steve autographed it for you guys?
"PUT YOUR HANDS DOWN FOR GOD'S SAKE! And give my fuzzy head back." XD
I feel rather envious now after seeing all these images.

very worth it to get it alone .. and it was 11$ priority shipping from az to ca...
Yeah, especially at the top since mine has a tendency to skew slightly to the left or right of the tie's knot (although that's partly because the left side of Max's head is pressing against the tie itself). Other than that, I couldn't be happier. The statue's fantastic.
FTW!
I was thinking along the lines of "That's a crazy dog! And he's got a bunny for a hand!".

I would say 'use your noodle' but it could lead to dangerous consequences.
