    Got my error figure yesterday. I think my figure's error is that the shoulder "bib" is sewed a bit uneven ( one side is bunched up a bit while the other side is not). Still looks great. That would be the type of thing CTVT would put at the front of the line

      That's hilarious! My mind kept going to Mattel Retro bodies.
      If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

        If the Bucks I received are factory errors... I'm blown away by what that could mean for the non errors.

        Seriously, awesome stuff, awesome quality.

          I was about to post almost the same thing, word-for-word!

          I opened mine Friday expecting an emblem mounted sideways or hafway to the left of his chest, but this looks TERRIFIC, and I can't heap enough praise on it -- Outstanding work and quality!

            Mine came in today. I haven't seen it yet but my wife called to let me know. She continually used the adjectives "Cool" and "Awesome". Needless say I'm definitely looking forward to getting home.

              Got mine this afternoon. I looked at it thru the window box and can't see a thing wrong with it.

                That's cuz there isn't a thing wrong with it. Craig is just neurotic... Lucky for us.

                  I prefer "perfectionist" over "neurotic".

                    I undid the under-stitching which was causing the bib to bunch up and look uneven and now all that's different about it is that the bib is not secured to the shirt at one side.

                    Biddi-biddi-biddi... "nice fix Buck"

                    Tight money and the fact that while I like the 1980 Buck Rogers, I am not a rabid fan kept me from getting the figures at the higher price point, even though it was tempting and they look great and are worth the money.

                    But now that I got one in my hot little hands, it is indeed the big deal and fantastically put together and thought out.

                      And as I've told Craig in my various PMs over Buck, I can't wait to see Hawk -- now especially and even more, since I've seen the quality of the "error" Bucks!

                        Oh yeah... That's the figure I'm most looking forward to. He's my fave character from the series. Here's to hoping there's some factory error Hawks!

                              More Available

                              Just wanted to let everyone know I have more factory error Buck and Tiger Man figures for sale. The most common problem with Buck is with the gold pilot wings being attached poorly or in the wrong place. There may also be issues with the clothing such as poor stitching and/or stains. Tiger Man has paint rubs on the nose. Please be aware that these are being sold "as is" with no returns. The price is $22.00 shipped in the US only.

                              To place an order for one figure, please provide me with your PayPal email address and I will send you an invoice. To place an order for multiple figures, please provide me with your zip code and PayPal email address.

                              Thanks,
                              Craig

                                To anyone who's thinking about getting these... Stop thinking and order them. Order them now, before they're gone again. Simply stunning figures at a phenomenal price. You won't be disappointed... Trust me.
