Allrightythen !
My Little Dude - actually I should say the Little Dragon - has landed safely in my hands (yesterday) !
The long ride from China to Norway, Europe took ten day.
First I have to say that I am very, very satisfied with Bei’s - Enterbay's official dealer in Beijing - top quality service, great correspondence and for his special attention and efforts he has put into the packing this wonderful figure set !
The actual EB box was wrapped within two layers of popping plastic (one with small bobbles and the other one with big bobbles), then placed carefully inside a cardboard box, then Bei added another wrapping of the popping plastic (big bobbles) plus added some extra card bard plate where necessary, and finally placed all this inside a bigger cardboard box with allot of tape wrapped around on the outside. I am very impressed - and very pleased !
The correspondence with Bei has been excellent also - as he is always straight to the point and responds to exactly what I am asking about.
It is a huge relieve for me (especially with all the controversy and negative feedback) that when I opened and did my inspection of the content and the actual EB box it seems to me that everything is in top notch condition - that is when I finally got all the extra unpacking Bei had done ! There are no rub stains or discolouration on the cheeks or nose (or anywhere else for that matter) on the two heads, and the body seems fine as well as I could not find any clear colour stains from the clothing (or from any other source) - except for some two very, very small black-ish stains on the back of each forearms (which can be mistaken for bruises - probably gotten from a fight he had with Bei when he did not want to leave China, but that is another story.... Hehe...). There seemed to be a little tick in the fabric of the "clean" track suit which the figure was dressed with - but it turned out to be only a little loose peace of tread which I just had to dust off with my finger tips - same with the jeans (...and yes, I was a little worried there for a second having to return them both... Hehehe...).
I am surprised to feel how heavy this whole figure feels, and I love the so realistic and natural skin colour of the body and two face scuplts ! The bruises and blood stain looks so real ! The two track suits fits wonderfully (not too loose or too tight) in top quality fabric - and the Kareem foot print on the "stained" suit is just perfect on mine (not too clear, not too un-clear). Btw, I did manage to untie the shoe leases - and it took me some time to tie them again, but I did it ! Hehehe… There are some really cool details on the camera with the wooden (battery ?) box, and the studio light is so cool ! The chair is as most of you know of real wood and has some really nice details with the gold-coloured metal attachments and the way it folds out and i ! The diorama is of course top notch also in wonderful real wood also - I wish the paper on the bottom of the two walls where not that transparent, but I think that it can be easily fixed.
By the way, sorry for the hasty photograph - as I had to take a picture with my mobile and have not had time to really sit down and find some cool poses, etc.
Allrightythen !

WOOHOO!
Congratulations Gung! Delighted for you!
At last you got it!
Completely agree about Bei, a gentleman and very very professional.
You will love this set more every day.
Great to hear it all worked out!
Now get with the posing and the pics!
I am glad everything worked out for you. Post more photos when you have a chance. I am waiting for Bei's Beijing edition as well, and this really assures me.
From what I've seen in other people's posts and from my own experience, I am led to believe that Enterbay did a better QC job on Beijing editions than on HK ones.
I received my HK version today, and I can confidently say that this is the BEST Bruce Lee figure EVER! The head is not as big as it seemed in many photos, and paint app and sculpt is AMAZING not to mention all the accessories!!!
HOWEVER...
My HK version came with number of defects such as major dark brown spots, paints rubbed off of nose and chin area on both heads, and minor staining, and deformed hair piece on smiley face. I am going to examine further and post some photos later on. I am going to contact the seller once I thoroughly examine the set, and hopefully I can get replacement body and heads. I am quite frustrated at EB's QC or lack there of.
not to dig,its like dot!
Oh! The latest update is that my impatience overcame me and I ended up doing what no India does... call up the Area Foreign Post and ask them about the status of my parcel. In ONE of a MILLION Chance, I got an EXTREMELY helpful and sincere personell on the other end of the line who took down my details and said he'll call me back after he has enquired about it. He called back to tell me that my parcel has been languishing in customs since the 29th and hasnt been inspected yet... Some news is better than none... the thing is in my city... Now PI hope it comes to me soon, safely and without any QC issues

I wouldn't mind HT doing a MMS EtD figure. I want that kendo/kenpo gloves outfit
Also, HT didn't include his lightsaber nunchucks with the DX release 
EB have been making BL figures for a bit. Why hasn't EB already done a Big Boss figure?
Give BL his necklace, a knife, & a packet of chips as part of his accessories You sound like a happy customer You're right, it was well packed. I would purchase again off GB
the rubbed paint on the nose is in mine too!
is there anyone with the same problem?

Congrats Gung Fu! Glad you got a minty set, you deserve it!
I agree Bei is top notch, communication and service is impeccable. My sets came wrapped so carefully protected they could have survived a grenade explosion in transit
One of my shoe's laces have come untied, I'm going crazy trying to tie it again

At least I'm not alone Knowitall
That's interesting. Did you specifically go to Pak Chong to visit the Ice Factory because it was BL related, or did you happen to be close by & thought you'd visit?
I managed to get one bunny ear & tied it like that. Trying to get two bunny ears wasn't happening
