Apparently PopToys is reissuing a new wave of preorders for Son of a General, renamed Son of a General Xinzhang, same character same armor same accessories, but with rooted hair, and apparently a little cheaper. It's up for preorder for Q1 2023 at the same retailer where I've preordered the original deluxe figure ages ago (and it should arrive in a few days in stock).

If I'm not wrong the only difference on the reissue its the copper armor
 
The neck joint had poor glue on it so I had to reglue that. The neck is a bit long so I used tweezers to pull his collar up but the white shirt is hard to get because the hair comes so low. Besides that, I kinda love it.

Forgot to add it has that unseemly hair joint. I still prefer it. If you want to display the helmet the original head is still better
 
My only gripe is that God awful seam. Otherwise it's a gorgeous sculpt.

I finally received my Son of a General DX figure but it's apparently missing an accessory (an important one too) : the headscarf. I really wanted to have him rock this look in my display so I'm pretty bummed. I searched the entire box many times, but it doesn't seem to be there.

Has anyone else had that issue, or is the headscarf really well hidden inside the helmet? I saw there is a padding inside the helmet but it doesn't seem to pull out and I didn't want to damage it, and I doubt they'd have hidden the scarf in there (the scarf is golden and the padding I saw is black)... I've contacted my retailer asking how to get the missing accessory but I'm not sure I'll get it.. :(

EDIT : I've been to PopToys website and it has 2 e-mail addresses to contact them, both got bounced back saying the addresses no longer exist. Great...

Is the paint on the Archtoys sculpt as chalky as it seems in photos? I can patch the seam, but I don't wanna go through repainting the whole sculpt
 
The head sculpt actually looks very good but that hair seam is awful. I would putty that up and paint it to match the rest of the hair.

Yeah kinda. I think it’s hard to get good photos of it. It looks better in hand but what you said is true. It looks better in hand
