Quote from: Flaffy on October 04, 2023, 04:11:54 PMThe warped lower jaw is very unfortunate with how spenny Rebor products are.

We noticed that a few copies suffered from such issue due to factory workers pushing their snouts too far into foam inlays. This however can easily be fixed by heating the lower jaw up with a hair dryer and it should then return to the correct position automatically. This is because shapes of PVC kits are already set during the injection moulding&cooling process so external forces without reaching material's ultimate tensile strength can only cause temporary mechanical deformation, heating parts up would trigger material's shape memory thus allow them to return to their original shapes.

The good news is most copies are OK and the chance of you getting a slightly warped lower jaw is quite slim.

The patterns, 3D scanned from original painted samples then laser printed on the final products really turned out great; they look really smooth and natural.

Thanks for the reassurance! Will be placing my order soon. Looking forward to seeing more crocs from Rebor.

It tooks months after the Deino released for us to even get the paint jobs of the Sarco. A whole new sculpt will take longer. Patience.

It's true the Sarcho took quite some time to release after the Deino.
But we had renders of the unpainted figures quite early if I remember correctly.
I'd love to see some of the Purusaurus.
