I agree, everyone seems to have that stitching really low, except for those 2.

Received mine today and have mixed feelings. Saggy armpits and a frakking small whole in the right knee!

Yikes!! How bad are the sags? Pictures? And how big we talking on the hole? size of pencil head or size of eraser?

I know. The question wasn't whether or not SS got a good UPS discount, but whether or not they had the option to ship anything out today. My point was simply that Sideshow's carrier of choice, UPS, was open for business today.

It's not big at all but the edges are frayed so I wonder if it will get worse.

No flash pic on left and flash on right.

There's no way immortalblade's came out of the box like that. He jammed paper under the arms or something. That was him that made that video right?

I know thats not big, but being were its at around the knee i can see this spreading and getting bigger over time! There is no doubt you need a replacement!

I didn't do anything to mine, but yeah immortal was one who did that video and had tips so I'm sure he altered his!

Same here.

Just got mine about hour ago. My box was so damaged i honestly thought the statue was toast. There were holes everywhere. What the hell Fed Ex? Surprised to see nothing was broken.

Got 1300/2000.. Saggy armpits are present on mine. The edge of the logo on the chest is lifted about a 1mm. The head has little paint spots but nothing to worry about. The fabric is little lifted on the right shoulder. Not a perfect statue but not bad eighter when you set it up and put it in the display case.

Choose to display with the long ear face. The whole family liked that one the best.

Will take pictures of some of the problems to see what SS will say. I am not having very good luck with quality issues.

I am on the fence with this statue so far. After almost 2 years of waiting i was little dissapointed with the quality of mine.

Also the statue is very unstable like everyone mentioned. I almost flipped mine putting a side for a sec.

Did found some furniture felts that i put on the base to balance it.

Over all 8.5/10 for me. Not bad but not the greatest.

Will try to post pics during the day..

Cheers,

Yeah, that has me worried too so I did ask for a replacement.

Congrats on getting your statue, ICEBERG. Hopefully, SS will offer you something.

It's just luck of the draw to whether you have lot of sag under armpit or little! We got lucky and there is no sagging anywhere! Even tried pushing up fabric and
It only went up very little so we're not messing with ours! Our luck if we tried fixing it I would rip fabric or ruin it and make it worse!

I would say your Bats has plenty of room under those pits for improvement. It is no worse then most and better then a couple. Mine looks a bit different then yours but like yours it is tight and It looks better in person. Pics really give it that bad seam look. But in both of ours you should be able to see the definition where the arm shoulder and pectoral all meet. You are right to say that yours does not sag... But instead it looks like the fabric stretches from the arm to the lat.. Giving it a slight "wing" look like those parajumpers.

Not bad mouthing your item... Just saying that nobody got what I would call the perfect Bat suit. But it does look much better in person. I was one of the biggest complainers and in hand I don't believe I am going to try anything to fix it because it looks just fine.

But they all could have been better IMO

Mine
