So, what exactly is going on with Conan? Is it a swell or cave in? I sold mine, but if it were caving in, I'd seriously consider filling the base with some sculpy or whatever is safe. Or look into commissioning a new base altogether.

I think swelling is more common problem, gas builds up inside the base or something

It's a cave in on mine. When I have time I will peel the base plate, bore a large hole in the bottom, use a heat gun to soften enough to bend back out and fill with expanding foam. Then reglue the bottom plate back on.

you know, the normal stuff you have to do to a 1 year old 850.00 statue.

Accessories and switch outs on top, statue and bases on the bottom. I find jet dry detergent works best.
