Especially at $250 plus a piece, this type of thing should not be happening. I think an official statement by Big Chief is required at this point to be honest. Make this right.
HT level with paint rubs prior to opening... Yeah...

Here is no futzing at all and on pics figure looks in weird way very different from how it looks in life, but shoulders of jacket could be wider.About the big head issue, I think that's not the case but more of body proportions. In that suit, as with most other suits that Connery wore, there's always been the impressive shoulder width that was distinct with Connery, unmatched until Daniel Craig came along, which I wonder can be remedied in this figure with padding? I'm just afraid that there won't be room for it. I'm away so I won't get to see my figure till New Years.

Check out the large surface area of the jacket from the lapels to the shoulders. Compare with Gido's photo:

Need to say-I forgot how great it fit.My sets are arriving tomorrow and I can give you guys my
Opinion
What I see so far is again the Connery suit is
the weak link
The only way to get the suit shoulder to be crisp
(it does not have to be Yunsil level ) or at least
To A Tolerable level might be too just swap the body to a slim
Or a Coulson body. The current BC body might
be very well be the wrong body for the suit.
I am going to swap my body out when I get my Connery

Here is my Yunsil suit in comparison
with no futzing
Greggo reported that paint rubs aren't widespread.
He might be right. I think I recall one person here saying that they received an unblemished sculpt.
Its a narrow shoulder issue NOT an over-sized head issue.
Here, does the BCS Bond head look large in this line-up?
I can’t believe that is true when 4/3 of my heads had the issue. Those odds would have to be astronomical if this isn’t a widespread issue.
Is possible to take out the head?It looks like it will be not easy.

Does Terry wrote how replacement will be done?Do we send back all box, or just hs?Got a reply from Terry at BCS who said replacement heads will arrive by them on January 8 and they will begin shipping replacements at that time.

He was categorical to the point of being snappy when stating that it wasn't a widespread issue. This is why I don't altogether trust BCS.
Credit where credit is due, all three figures are looking very good indeed, but the nose rub thing needs to be dealt with honestly. One explanation is that the heads didn't dry properly before being packaged, and that was because they were rushing to get them out on time for Christmas - that's a charitable explanation of what happened, and hopefully they will deal with it. No one wanted BCS to get the license but having seen some positive results, everyone wants them to make more - the goodwill is there. I hope they don't squander that goodwill by coming on here and attacking people, or I think it really will start turning into a Gilbert/Sears style situation.
