I hadn't read about it before I saw it here. I read Plastic and Plush and occasionally LowBrownie. I still don't think the former has mentioned it, and the latter only mentioned it yesterday. Looks like it had popped up on Toys R Evil and Vinyl Pulse, but they're a bit too high-volume for me.
It's a lovely piece but it just won't really fit in my collection. As I've run out of shelve space (and money) I start thinking about my collection as a whole - there might be some amazing toy/sculpture I love but I don't see how I can display it and can't justify spending the money. Unless I really fall in love :)
Mine arrived too, I like it very much and it's actually a bit bigger than expected, but it does have a few scratches and some damage, as well as lines and even cracks on all 4 sides where I suppose the wood's glued together.
even though it has a sarcastic tone to it.. i agree with dans statement. you spend that much money on a piece of 'art', i think it should be free of defects..
does anyone know if they plan to make more of these? i might pick one up in a week or so, i wouldnt mind a couple more to stack!
The packaging had no padding at all, which is strange for such a delicate figure, IMHO. I contacted MJ, and they will send me a new one. They're awesome.
yeah, but they said they were done with the bad apple, and i know they made atleast 2-3 other colorways after that, and those two 'drippy' ones. weird.

Pre-ordered. Finding out about stuff like this is my favorite aspect of Rotocasted. This is the coolest thing I've seen in quite awhile.

They were supposed to ship this last week, but since they haven't, I suppose it will happen during the next few days.

Mine is here, and in good shape. Very mild scuffing on the sides, doesn't detract from the *amazing* sculpt.

Surely they should arrive in impeccably perfect condition, as they are premium priced art toys?

I should imagine there will be plenty of different releases for this piece, they are already on 3.
Apologies for the sarcasm. I'm like that first thing in the morning.

I was at the STGCC yesterday and I asked them if they had more colorways for the Bad apple and they said that they are done with it.
Missed out on this one though :(
