Quality?
« on: 21 September 2011, 01:31:14 PM »
Got my first ever strange aeon stuff the other day and was kinda dissapointed at the poor quality of it. Lots of air pockets, one of the female agents had a mold line going trew her eye, the hand of agent Lovecraft that holds his book in was half missing, the daggers of a cultist looked very strange etc.. So my question is, is this normal for these minis or was I just very very unlucky?

Did you contact Mike to see about replacements? That's usually a good place to start.

Sounds like a few bits slipped past Q.C. All of my figures have been of high quality.

I've also recently received my first SA miniatures and my models look great (Threshold Agents III, Mad Scientist and Banshee). The Banshee has some small bubbles (which are quite common with resin figures) and the left hand had been broken off, probably due to shipping, but that can be easily fixed with some glue.

Normally I'd say the thing to do is contact Mike, but he's temporarily offline thanks to a faulty modem.  PM me with your name (plus address and a list of the faulty figures, if you didn't order them directly from us), and I'll pass the info along.

Well 9 figures out of 11 seems like a big slip, thats why I asked here first to see if its worth the bother to get new ones.

 I think you were just unlucky - I have not had any problems with and item I have received from Uncle Mike's Worldwide.

Back online. To be honest I've been giving it some thought. Since you didn't purchase them from me I really can't speak for the quality. That said, they are my product and I stand by it. If you send me the figures back I will replace them and send them back to you at no additional cost. Please contact me via P.M. and we can sort out the details. Hope this helps.

Best Regards,
uncle Mike
