F*CK!!!

I ordered my last missing attakus piece, the extremly difficult to find Darth Vader from the attakus editions atlas series.

Had to buy a lot of 5 to get this one.

However, this is how I got them in

luke is quite an easy fix I guess.

Vader is kinda bad because of the small area that can be glued. Also, the saber is metal so I dont know if itwill hold.

Im trying to send them back though, still waiting for a reply

the shipping box was still in perfect shape.

The piece were just not protected enough with only some cotton balls between them. Also, there was a lot of spave between them so they could easily more around within the box

Very sorry to see this Josh. The worst one seems to be Yoda, although as you said Vader is not as easy as it would seem to fix. Best of luck getting them either repaired or refunded.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Where did you get them? Hopefully the seller will refund you since they didn't pack it well...or the statues had those issues pre-shipped and won't admit to it?
