The helmet looks so warped.

FYI I was just charged for my Shredders. They should be shipping to you soon if you ordered from me. (typically a week later). I still have a few left on the site if you still need 1.

Hey, Coro. I haven’t had much luck reaching you via DM, so I’ll ask here- will you be willing and able to hold a Shredder until Friday?

*Coro* · 05-21-2019, 03:46 PM

Let me check actual stock. I’m out of pocket today cause my team (STL Blues) are playing a major game tonight-I’ll get to it when I can.

*RaphaelinSTL* · 05-21-2019, 04:45 PM

Hoping he gets released on their Amazon Store soon!

Looks like you'll be fine. Shoot me a message on the site if you have issues.

Yeah Ive been struggling to keep up with store stuff since I have tickets to all the playoffs...3 games a week-ish is wearing me down.

While I would love to see them take down the pitiful city of Boston, I don’t see it happening.

Do I look nervous?

You must not have been watching what the Blues have done.

just bought shredder off NECAs ebay

*RaphaelinSTL* · 05-28-2019, 01:49 PM

Woohoo! Shredder shipped and is expected to get here on Thursday!

Looks like mine are taking the long route as a heads up so there might be a slight delay in me shipping. They went to KS, then MO, then back to KS, then back to MO and looks to be headed my way again. Stupid FEDEX.

Which can only mean ONE THING-- Shred head and the Foot have hijacked the FedEx plane and can't decide on Kansas BBQ or Missouri BBQ!

No rush.

Lol at the BBQ reference. St. Louis still has better toasted ravioli.

Yup, in every image I have seen of the figure that helmet it warped. Ever since the full reveal and the inconsistencies I was afraid of actually became apparent I just haven't bene too excited about this figure. I feel that with all the time they took on him not to end up with a precise product is disappointing. I've never seen any of their predators or Pennywise not be completely consistent with the movie aesthetic. I'm being picky, I know, but I expected better. The inconsistencies are not as prominent on the smaller figure in the SDCC 2018 set and so that's what I'm focused on getting to pair with my SDCC 2018 set.
I may as well sell off my 1/4 scale turtles to free up some space.

So according to these pics, the foot clan arrived after their BBQ feast and left for their final destinations today. Everyone that ordered Shredder and Foot Soldiers should now have orders shipped out and in route to them.

Also obligatory photo (post clean up after BBQ feast)
Yes I know these suck- I was in a hurry to get to the post office same day.

If you want to get crazy picky with it, the original production helmets were floppy rubber and didn't hold their shape all that well either.

Thanks for the heads up, Coro! Hopefully Shred dude didn't get BBQ sauce all over his sparkly red shirt.

What part of the helmet? Now that I have one in hand I see the shingle part of the helmet is made of a softer plastic and the silver blades on top are a harder plastic. The one that I opened the silver parts are perfect and so were the ones that I saw in package, but the shingle part I would call "smooshed" in the back. On the plus side it looks like if you turn the head a bit you can put that part on a shoulder blade to hold in where you want it, and over the course of an hour it looks to be holding that position. Not sure what I think about the softer plastic, but if that was your concern its an easy fix.

So the helmet was screen accurate then! NECA really went the extra mile to match it. (see post right above this)
