If you mount it correctly, it's probably safer than just sitting on a shelf.

One wall screw can easily hold two statues and there are two, so np at all.

But for piece of mind I did put some Zap-a-gap/superglue in all edges behind the metal brackets to strengthen or fill up. Bcs prime used four little screws with some putty.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

I'm actually waiting now to hang mine, because my Big Chap should be arriving soon & want to make sure I mount it accordingly, for best viewing angles.

Just a bit of advice to those who aren't handy or skeptical about using one drywall anchor & one in the stud; I'm using a piece of 1" trim nailed into the wall in the studs. I'm then going to mount the statue to that with female panel mates so I don't even have to stress it being hung into drywall. I've done this method for hanging over 50 retro skate decks on my walls & it's definitely the best method. When I say trim, I'm talking about what you see all around your home's perimeter between your tile and wall. It's cheap to do and easy. You only need a small piece for this particular statue. Just nail the trim into the studs in the wall. I paint mine to match the wall, although you won't really even see it.

^ what I wouldn’t give to have a warrior or dog alien to wall mount. All fours to the wall with the head looking towards you. Tail hanging down or in a scorpion position. That would make a great pair.

Did any of you guys find a nice backdrop of the Chrysler/Columbia building to go with this? P1 should've produced these independently as shown on their prototype.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I received mine this week. What a statue. Wall mounted it immediately and as others have said, it took mere seconds to set this up, which is awesome.

I like that it's no frills, just plain amazing. I have a get a stand to mount the second head though, or I just might make my own.

Finally decided to mount him on the wall. Makes a hell of a difference in my opinion and makes him really stand out. It's the best part of this piece I think.
