I think the BW looks straight...It's you table that's out of balance due to all the papers on one side

It does look off. What # you get. I haven't opened the BW or Magneto I got from BBTS today yet.

I feel sorry for you guys having these QC issues, shouldn't have to deal with that, anyways the top past her hair looks bent from the picture, but its not quite clear from the perspective, perhaps try taking another picture on a flat surface next to a vertical wall. Heres my black widow next to a vertically straight besta cabinet.

Here's mine. Seems to be a big gap from her a$$ to the wall, compared to others pics. Small wall lean. I really hope she doesn't start leaning in a few weeks.

The wall is flat when laid down on a surface. The lean is probly from the wall peg hole off in the base.

Paint app is as expected, amazing.

How can there be such a variance in the final product?

I've just not seen that many people having issues. Just about everyone has them in hand now so if something was drastically off it'd be known. They admitted to the one small batch that had the wonky leg. I have seen a few people that had a leaning wall but just a handful at best. I've got to open mine up and give it a look over before shipping her off.

There should be a very slight lean to the wall but only very slightly. And BW's butt does not and should not touch the wall (due to the ability to display her with out the column).

However, with the two pics you two posted there is definitely too much lean of the column and a little too much space between the BW figure and the base.

I honestly feel that out of all the statues done thus far and concepts shown....Black Widow and Medusa are the most concerning. BW with her lean since this was pre metal rod insertion in the leg situation, and Medusa because of all that damn hair. As intricate as the hair looks....I'm curious as to how that is going to be done and packaged. Is the hair going to be done in sections (connected at the hair root?) Is it all going to be one sculpt?

I don't have one iota of concern with Black Bolt or Ms. Marvel or Phoenix. But these two....ooooooooohhhhh...I shudder to think.

Good to know XM is far from perfect...shows they have lots of room to improve in the future.
