congratulations!

Someone made a similar suggestion in the Huntress thread. I have to wonder how anyone would think this is a good idea. I looked at my Batgirl statue, and the magnet is recessed deep inside the neck. Furthermore, the magnet is covered with either paint or polystone. I'm not gonna perform surgery on a $400-$600 statue.

Maybe I misunderstood KaraFan. I asked if the head sat all the way down, flush, but and KF said no. So, if there is gap between the magnets, can you not add one in between them? You would not need to glue it either because the neodymium are really strong.

It's the back of her head where there is a gap. It pulls forward like her heading is just going to roll off.

even there is no gap between the head and neck magnets, i think putting a 6x1mm neodymium magnet between them is worth a try.

It might be just me but we pay a lot of money for these items and we shouldn't have to "fix" them.

Agree, especially with the increase in prices in the last 2-3 years.

i bought a 10X1mm magnet and place it on the neck, now the head can be firmly attached.
and the gap to the neck is almost unnoticable.

Super late to the party, but my Catwoman just showed up today... Happily she had no issues with the head attachment, and regardless of the MP likeness, her portrait is totally gorgeous. Overall I love the piece, and it's pretty much my new favorite Catwoman incarnation.
