So awesome. And no issues with packaging like one of the other members reported?
Sidenote: is that a Snuggie?

It’s was either the snuggly or the treadmill it’s draped over.
Only problem I had as the very tip of the sword pushed through the plastic tip protector and bent slightly. I’m just going to file it out myself though

It looks impressive and you also have the sword of the pirate Roberts, I hope that Indy makes a replica of that sword...
I hope that mine of Montoya arrives to me fast, the goblets received them a few days ago, so I only need the sword of the pirate Roberts...

Mcintosh, were did you get your goblets? I’m always curious.
I hope the tips getting bent isn’t a major issue, but it seems simple to remedy.

Those of Zenix are very good and very heavy, I am happy to have bought it...
Your vintage ones also look good...
By the way, you have both swords hung with wall hangers...???

Mine hasn't shipped yet, but these photos made me even more excited about receiving the sword. Thank you for posting these!
We're finishing a run of 25 swords right now and should be shipping in about a week, so if you were among the first to order, you should be receiving a shipping notification next week.

That's great to hear!
I was pleasantly surprised to find my shipping box waiting for me on my doorstep when I got home. Whatever packaging issues that existed before have been resolved because my sword arrived in perfect condition. I was a little concerned before opening the box because I heard something loose, but it was just the scabbard. The sword is fully wrapped and secured inside the box.
This thing is hefty! I'm so impressed with the weight and the solid feel. I can't imaging the Factory Entertainment version holding up to this. The balance is great too - I was able to balance it on one finger. My only mild complaint is that the scabbard is a little crooked and the opening doesn't seem to be wide enough to slide all the way to the hilt/guard (although I don't plan to display it with the scabbard on).

What is that extra bit of metal flashing on the tip of the the scabbard? It isn’t on the scabbard in the top of the page.

The scabbard must also be secured so that it does not arrive twisted or scratched, it has been twisted because it is badly placed, it must have cork on both sides the entire scabbard...
That additional part of the tip of the scabbard should not be, or have forgotten to remove it or be there to protect the tip during transportation that i imagine...

Oh wow I didn't even notice that extra flashing. With that and the fact that it doesn't slide fully into the sword is enough reason to inquire about a replacement. Thanks for the heads up guys.

I’m glad you got a good one. Mine unfortunately looks like this...
But Indy is on it... so I’m hopeful!
