Ichigo as Final Getsuga Tenshou with Mugetsu is my ultimate Bleach statue. I have been looking forward to him for quite some time, but unfortunately my statue arrived with a couple of faults that I will go into details regarding further down.
The box for Ichigo is designed after the prototype and didn't weigh all too much:
As per usual, the statue came in several parts which was very straightforward in terms of what goes where and in what order:
Final Getsuga Tenshou Ichigo is designed after artwork:
Overall I am happy with the colouring of the statue, both Ichigo and the base:
One of the first things I noticed when taking Ichigo out of his packaging was a very visible scratch on his hair, sadly:
As well as a problem with the effects; both of them being way too loose in their grooves and the effect by his right arm/Mugetsu is in the way of Mugetsu which is resulting in it leaning onto it and bending it:
As my Ichigo is both scratched and faulty by design, I have contacted the Tsume CS and I am awaiting an official reply. However, considering I had a chip out of Killer Bee's tentacle, which thankfully was replaced, I had a word with Cyril - the owner of Tsume and he told me that there are supposedly no spare parts for Ichigo (he will double check on Monday).
Now, not only is this very concerning since Ichigo is a brand new released statue and they supposedly do not have spare parts for manufacturing mistakes and potential breakages during shipping. But the molds can only be used X amount of times until they are stretched too much, which means that the mold(s) on my statue was used too much and the quality assurance did not check to see if everything was fitting properly together without interference from one another, as well as the very noticeable scratch.
I am worried about the decrease in QA, especially in consideration that their statues are becoming more expensive (which I can live with if they are up to the expected quality and without faults), but also larger edition sizes.
For another look at the statue - different angles, check out the video below:

Saigo no Getsuga Tenshō (最後の月牙天衝, The Final Moon Fang Heaven-Piercer) is a technique of Ichigo Kurosaki's Bankai, Tensa Zangetsu. 1 Description 2 Gallery 2.1 Manga Image Gallery 2.2 Anime Image Gallery 3 References 4 Navigation By using this technique, Ichigo becomes Getsuga (月牙, Moon Fang) itself. It is referred to as the 'Final' Getsuga Tenshō due to the fact that, once. I mean, after learning the final Getsuga Tenshou he became a beast and overpowered Aizen in every way. If that wasn't enough, he could've use his hollow mask. In the end, there wasn't really a need for him to go all out and lose his powers. Mugetsu is the final getsuga tensho, barring any Fullbringer shenanigans, where Ichigo merges with his sword and fires off a getsuga with all of his power. We don't know if Ichigo can use it again as that is dependent on whether Mugetsu necessarily drains all of Ichigo's power or the power loss is simply a side effect of not understanding that. I wish J-Stars Victory VS had Aizen's transformation. At least they gave us Ichigo's epic Final Getsuga Tenshou! Get J-Stars Victory VS: http://amzn.to/UfP5U.
