Hopefully they will make sure she doesn't have the same issue tho.
I hope mine... when ever it gets to my sup,. doesn't have this issue.. paint coming off meant, it didn't cure long enough ..
why have removable garments if they can't ever be removed ??
Thx blue.. I hope this gets fixed, can't wait to see you get her back n'
she's able to be viewed w/out those issues !
Oh... blue.. could you post pic and what you think of Her Garden broken wings (?) on her thread
when you have the time ?

So no one else has tried removing the top to see if this is a one off vs production issue?

I will try again, when my replacement arrives, it should arrive the week of July 2. Any advice? Should I heat or cool the PVC clothing before taking it off? I was thinking maybe heating it to make it less tight, but maybe heating it with a air dryer with make the paint also come off easier.

Yamato did not say they would remove the top clothing for me before shipping, they didn't respond to that question. I do plan on calling them about that question when my damaged statue arrives to them to ask that question.

If the paint is stuck to the clothing, I don't think there is anything that you can do, other than not try to remove it. I doubt that heating or cooling it will cause it to release from the clothing.

I did take the top off without problems. No paint adhesion problems with mine. And although I was able to drape her clothing back on I was unable to fasten it back into place. Fortunately her clothing does stay in place without being fastened.


Thanks for the welcome Barbarian. Happy to participate in this forum.

Got mine yesterday and it is a beautiful piece just one problem. On the right side of her dress the seam where the clothes attach is separated by a more than noticeable space and does not re-attach easily if at all

Does she look as good as the first post? So can't wait...

Heat up her garment to get it to reattach and be closer,
hot water or blow dryer will do the trick
The same problem happened w/the PVC statue, the issue is resolved.
