Alien Queen and Rogue Alien Battle Diorama Statues by Prime 1 Studio

I've always wondered how they ship something this detailed, with all the thin parts, and have it arrive to your doorstep in one piece?

If I was Jeff Bezos and had 52 different homes to furnish, I would buy them!

Not sure where the market is for these high end statues... but that said I am also glad these things exist.

The boxes are very large, and so there is a lot of protection. The Alita Prime1 box for deluxe was 90x65x65 cm. Some pieces come in multiple boxes too. Even then, you could have some breakages, and then you have to contact them and they will send you a replacement part. Since this is a high end market, the service tends to be more (relatively speaking) responsive too. If it is not something that can be replaced as a part, they ask you to destroy your statue, send proof, and then send you a brand new replacement

They really ask you to destroy the (possibly very slightly) damaged one? That seems wasteful.

I wonder how well these scale with NECA aliens. If they were half the marked price i would consider getting one. Maybe they'll eventually be on discount. That said, NECA needs to do that rogue alien.

It really is, both painful and wasteful. But, they won’t send out the replacement till you send the destroyed pics.
