Thanos sits quite well when the left arm rest is no installed. Once the arm rest is installed, Thanos is lifted and refuses to sit flush.

Is the right armrest all the way in the plug? It was hard to get in on my original.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

The feet should be flush to the throne...the legs on your statue were not properly attached. The excuse I heard from the SS rep is that that the body had probably expanded during curing. I had the same issue and their first suggestion was an $85 credit, lol.

I believe the left armrest is installed correctly, I fidgeted with it and it install different, it looks like the attached image where Thanos' arm rests.

Mine has a slight gap and I’ve seen other photos and people post about having a gap. I think the gap on yours is bigger though.

My replacement came in flawless. The paint job was much better than the original. The gold paint in the back of the throne is much more pronounced.
I have a slight gap on my and it came in with the exact # edition as the original #388/750

got my replacement, overall it looks nice but something caught my eye I don't remember seeing on the last one and haven't seen in anyone elses pictures. the "buckles"? appear to not be inserted all the way or at not the correct angle. if the statue is below eye level and you are looking down at the statue two of the keys are clearly visible. I realize one has a small chip which doesn't concern me as much as actually being able to see these square keys sticking out of his chest

anyone elses like this?

my EX is exactly like that, but you have to get right up to it and look down...it's not even noticeable from more than a few feet away

Thanks, yeah it doesnt look like it could sit more flush based on the shape of the clasps or whatever. Displayed on a shelf it would look fine, guess im being paranoid lol
