Mr. Dob Murakami ComplexCon, by vei on Apr 18, 2017 20:36:34 GMT 1, I've had a look to see if there was anywhere in the uk that could repair mine but google isn't hitting anything. Does anyone have know anywhere where I could send my Dobbs to have the finger prints removed?

Does anyone have know anywhere where I could send my Dobbs to have the finger prints removed? I don't own one of these but from the pictures I've seen if they've applied any type of clear-coat then you need to have it polished down to where the finger print smudges occurred. If it's smudged on the paint and they added a layer of clear then you'll need to polish/compound off the clear, have it repainted, then re-apply the clear-coat. Either way, people that deal with air-brushing, automotive paint/detailing could possibly help you but you're looking at minimum $150-200/hour type charges. Possibly could use a DA Orbital polisher with the lightest polish and work your way to something with more cut if it's not removing. You would need to tape off the entire figure and go from there.

Mr. Dob Murakami ComplexCon, by maddoghoek100 on Apr 19, 2017 19:58:41 GMT 1, i received a return merchandise order and prepaid UPS shipping label from them a few weeks ago now. not sure how they are handling the whole thing for others, and certainly a little nervous that stuff gets lost in the shuffle so i documented a lot. that said for anyone trying to restore these my sense is you are out of your minds. God bless and i hope it works out, but you wouldn't tell someone to use a bunch of scotch tape on a print, so not sure why you would want to do the equivalent here when the alternative is to just wait a few more months. it is not life saving time sensitive medication

I have seen a couple of singles on instagram. One in particular comes to mind because the box it came in had edition of 750 printed on the side of it, whereas the sets were in the double boxes printed with edition of 250. I think the instagram user is pasu_pashu if you want to take a look.

I think the instagram user is pasu_pashu if you want to take a look. the sets did not come in double boxes. The sets came with one red from the edition of 750 and one gold from the edition of 250. You could only get the gold by buying both color ways. There is technically no actual set, just two color ways. Also, NOBODY is receiving anything right now and most likely won't be for months until all the replacements are made. I believe the boxes came in a larger box that says "set" and then smaller boxes are within that box with the numbers (250/750) on each box.

Does Bait have anything to do with Complexcon? no Don't think Bait has anything to do with ComplexCon other than having a booth and producing the figure for Murakami. A quick google search found this regarding ComplexCon: "Organized by the magazine of the same name that is jointly owned by Hearst and Verizon" It would be nice for them to update their customers as to what's going on. If you haven't been proactive with the situation then you wouldn't have a clue that it's had a major road bump in manufacturing. I haven't been updated at all, the only communication was my initial order email confirmation.
It's just such a shame. I have my spot ready for Mr Dob to go out on display. It's just a waiting game I guess but it's the first time I've bought anything like this, it's not been the best experience.

BAIT x Murakami Update Dear Customer, If this is the first time you receive our communication, please accept our apologies. We had sent this to your email account a few months back thru our general customer service email account, and it may have gone to your spam/promotions folder. We have created a dedicated email account for the Murakami DOB communication to hopefully get this communication to your inbox with no issues. You may email any questions/concerns regarding your order directly to murakami_support@baitme.com, and we will get back to you within 1-2 business days.
Thanks for purchasing the Murakami DOB figure. Unfortunately, there were damages to a significant portion of the shipments during shipping to our USA and Euro distribution centers, and we are currently reproducing those damaged units. We regret to inform you that your unit was part of the damaged portion, and we have to ask for your patience to wait for the replacement production to complete before getting your order.
The reproduction process will finish in August, and we will ship them out early September. If you prefer to cancel your order instead, simply email us at murakami_support@baitme.com, and we will help you out with that.
We are very sorry for your troubles.

Um by the time they turn up they will be worth a few grand ! (Set sold for โฌ4000 this week). By all means take the refund offered.

I think that's why this latest email was sent. Murakami posted a pic of the red figure to his IG this week and 90% of the comments were extremely negative. Seems like that did the trick.
