Enterbay Game of Death 1/6 2010

On another point, if I'm correct, you mentioned earlier that you have paid for this purchase using a friends Paypal account. I would think they would send your item to his address. This may be a good thing in your circumstance. If your friend isn't in India, he'll be able to mark down the item before forwarding it on to you.

Hey Thanks for your clarification and advice, however although my friend's account has been used I made sure they put the delivery address as my own in the Paypal invoice. So Im sure it will be mailed directly to me, which again brings the question of marking down the value. Maybe I should attach that old mail to them again and show where they agreed to mark down the item... hoping it will work... I was hoping to get the confirmation and use it to refer to them to mark down the value of my order... anyway lets see Ive already mailed them with payment clearance proof and again reiterated my requests, lets see if that works... Thanks again

opening a paypal dispute but noting in the comments to the seller why you are doing it generally works. I've done it before when I needed to ensure recorded communication and it isn't unfair to use now.

You just have to be careful because you can only do it once. Paypal won't let you close then reopen if another larger problem happens later.

...can always note to the seller after resolution that you will leave open until transaction is finished (you receive goods)

Have there been any pics of the hand-painted eye BD head?

Not the big ugly eyes we've already seen?

If we haven't, it would be cool if EB gave us this painted head as shown in this prototype-

"According to Bill from his 'weibo', the clothing & body are factory samples while the head shown is still a hand-painted prototype, there'll be slight variations once the 'eyeball system' is implemented, & becos of that, this set is gonna be the last time EB uses it's 'eyeball system' with Bruce."

No eyeball system for future BL's? Do you know if Bill was talking about the new EVision eyeball system, or are they ditching any & all moving eye systems for BL? I tried going to weibo/enterbaybill.com, but everything was in a foreign language.

 

[Lawrence]

Well i write an e-mail to Enterbay and decide to put some parts here:

My Question: "...recently I read the information that in July, you will be selling this same head without the eye system, identical to the prototype, sold individually. I would like to confirm with you if this information is accurate. I feel more relaxed knowing that I can then let my Action Figure more like the prototype..."

Enterbay: "...Actually what you have heard about selling the non-movable head sculpt on its own might not be correct as I have not heard about that from the management team before..."


My Question: "I must be honest with you that the head sculpt of battle damage version was miles away from the prototype. For a moment, I had decided to cancel pre-order. If you look on the Internet, the amount of criticism related to this head sculpt is huge."

Enterbay: "...The damage battled head might not be pleasing to everybody but other accessories and the smiling face is actually quite good..."

Thats it

Maybe the EB representative is not allowed to say until an official announcement is made by EB. Or maybe the heads don't exist

If they do offer painted BD heads, I wonder how many they will mass produce. Maybe 5000 heads to match the edition size of the figure? Guess we'll have to wait & see.

Speaking of edition size. I remember 300 being the edition size of the expo version. I tried googling it to be sure, but didn't find it. For some reason 300 is in my head. Anyway to my question. Does anybody in here know if there are 5300 of these figures (5000 normal + 300 expo) or is the expo version part of the 5000 edition size? Ask EB you say?

..... Eh

I called the Enterbay store today, because i wanted to know when i could collect my GOD, since I PO'd in early May.

Mine will be ready for pick up around the end of the month. I also asked over the phone regarding when the extra bodies will be sold, and when the BD unpainted head will be out. She told me the extra bodies will come in July/August, about USD60-65 a pop, and that the BD heads won't be for sale. It was a bit of a let down for me to hear .

Maybe Tinister's seller had like 30 sets that all could get returned, so he has 30 BD heads that he will sell seperately ??

Sorry if my rambles don't make much sense, must of drank too much!

About The BD head-

I think I read on this forum that since the first batch of Battle Damaged with the large eyes was getting heavily critised, EB was doing a non-moving BD head to give for free to those people who recieved the wonky one. So I just thought that maybe they were creating a new non-movable head with smaller eyes to make it look better.

About future Bruce Lee's-

I believe that they're stopping the movable eyes for the rest of the Bruce Lee's EB are doing. Maybe because it makes the head sculpt not as good as when it is hand-painted?

saw a picture on bbts of the GoD Bruce holding the clapper board that reads "死亡的游戏"

shouldn't it be just "死亡游戏" or was that the original name during production? any idea?

posting this again because it must have been lost amid that dragged out squabble earlier. same question guys, anyone knows what the deal is with this? or is the final product different from the proto pics?

Good to know I don't have to pay approx $140US for an extra body on ebay (if I buy one ). So the rumour about the painted BD heads being sold turns out to be false. Thanks Stanlore. That was helpful information to know.

If those painted BD heads are close to what was shown at the expo, then I can imagine the price on them being ridiculous. That seller who might get 30 of them is probably going to be sort after.

I thought EB's 'moving eyes' BL's were cool. But if EB feels they can get closer to BL's likeness with hand painted heads, then I'm all for it.

Another reason for 'hand painted only' heads, could be to cut production costs, now that I think about it Thanks Tigerslash

 

[Rorywan]

Well my dealer has told me he will be sending me the painted head in July/August. Enterbay have told him he will be supplied with them for each set. So good news for anyone who bought the set early.

 

[tigerslash51]

No problems!

Just wondering. Anyone who has this. Hows the articulation with this figure? If I get this this I'm hoping to display him in some dynamic poses.

That rumor was actually straight from the horse's mouth when Bill responded to queries on his weibo.

Showoff

 

[Rorywan]

Sorry, couldn't resist.

I'm going to go with the painted BD heads not being sold through the EB website. Stanlore's post seems like that happened recently.

Maybe it'll pop up on ebay

 

[rawkneehuang]

so that really is the name during production.. whew!

and that isn't BL is it?

 

[Lawrence]

and that isn't BL is it?

I think it's the lighting

Even BL needs the right lighting conditions to look like BL See, EB's figure is accurate

 

[Lawrence]

What does it actually say? Game Of Death, or something else?

haha.. let's hope no one digs up the cameraman and give him a bashing for that crap shot!

seriously though, the hair looks kinda funny that's why i thought it wasn't him
