Nope, just a screw up. Mercy will be on her way sometime today. The phoney ones are pretty much their generic dolls and headless bodies.

The "Unique ones' are way to much effort for the profit. Some of these figures, like my Capt Sparta have 3 layers of foam with all the extra stuff and a cold cast resin stand that is a piece of art work.

The ones I have seen on eBay at 25 bucks a piece are like my troopers, but my ladies came from them so I have no concerns.

Nice share and an important information to communicate :thumbs_up:
For all those who know the brand, maybe a visual extract would be more explicit to summarize the situation:
Indeed, TBLeague remind me something: this brand and logo was used on early figurines. Before to become PHICEN, the initial name was "Tiger Brother League". Back to the origin :lol:

By years, Phicen has always take care of the customers feedback.
Latest improvements are : big base (especialy the Capt. Sparta). The sword of Arhian is made of metal (not plastic). The box now use an ingenious but simple closure system: There is no more cardboard difficult to remove, the box is printed and small invisible magnets close the three-part lid.
I also have the impression that the fixation of the hands has been improved: on Capt. Sparta and Ahrian, I had no difficulty in changing them. It sounds much stronger than on the previous models.

Thanks LoneRanger for this share.

Now I'm really going to have to watch out trying to buy a Phicen on AliExpress or somewhere else like that. Thanks for the warning!

Many of mine come from Aliexpress. It's just a sales platform, not worse than eBay. There is good and bad. Besides some sellers on Aliexpress also sell on eBay! There is no miracle site, sometimes I find cheaper on Ebay, but also sometimes in stores in France. There are also interesting shops in China (HK) that are not on Aliexpress, nor ebay.

About Vampirella: I wonder if there will not be another version. The PL2017-101-A is indicated "Asian version", what will be version B?

If a version B how about full on Vampire fangs at the ready version!! Ever notice how most of the tamale Vampires stay hot and a lot of the males turn into big ugly bats...

I have it on good opinion that there will also be a 'Western' face version in the not to distant future....I will have both of course..Now back to the current theme

I saw this morning that my Sheena is at my local post office and will be here today....

Great, you would think so... read on, still developing

So I went to Amazon to snag a picture from my purchase (there were 10 for sale, leaves 9 in my math book). And no more for sale?? Great, I wonder if it was my email to them warning about my recent awareness of fake Phicens on Amazon, that I would go after them if it is a fake and that I have connections at TBLeague to verify my purchase......

Were they pulled or all sold out??
