I cannot say, as i placed a piece of felt in the the 1mm gap between the cape and the X-23 base. If it wants to move/lean more i guess it could pivot at the point of the felt, it it could with lean backwards, or twist. I think (hope) no more movement will occur.

It will be interesting to see if, in 1 years time, there are any reports from others who have not displayed Scarlet Witch next to another piece.

Thanks. I'll hope for the best and stay away from one leg up poses in the future.

I took the tape measure out (again). It appears to be 63cm

Maybe it was 64cm. Since the 5mm lean, 1cm has been lost.
If it were not for X-23, the leaning might have continued, which means 60cm might have happened eventually.

You werent sure, if it is leaning issue of cape only or the whole statue, so now you think the whole statue is leaning?

Possible 4cm lost during leaning process? Thats almost this statue lays flat

Possible 1cm lost during leaning. Leaning has stopped, because of X-23 is positioned next to SW. It is unclear if it is statue lean, or cape movement. 63cm appears to be correct. My original 60cm was the result of being in a hurry. I hope that makes things clear

I would so much like to jump and grab her as I have an opportunity to do so, but your case worries me, and worries me a lot. I buy my statues for some nice period of time, not flippin em, so leaning of this bad girl will be a killer for me. Still cant decide if shes worth a risk, so far I can find only your case. How do you feel, will you go for her again?

The lean might be normal, while the statue settles in. So far, as far as i know, there have been no other reports of leaning. There is a metal rod inside the leg. Fact is, the cape is heavy.
