Sorry, I also posted this in the Batman PF thread. Rather new to the boards. Got my Batman the other day and LOVE him, but he doesn't seem to sit perfectly flush with the base. He leans forward a tiny bit, and if I push him, he will rock back until the back of his boot touches. There is also a small chip and some white stuff where the left boot meets the leg, and if I look at JUST the right angle, I can see into a gap between the boot and leg on both boots. All this being said, these are all rather tiny visual issues that you really need to be looking for to notice. I would def. like replacement if any of these issues would be cause for concern over breakage or leaning in the future, but would take credit for my trouble if not. I contacted SS, and am waiting to hear back.

Got my Bane today. He is perfect other than where the venom tube connects to the spinal implant.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

They had me send it back. Hopefully the replacement has no issues. I really like the statue.

I recently got back into collecting and ordered my first statue. I got the Wolverine PF, it came and right when I picked up the box I heard rattling...not a good sign. So like I figured I opened it and a piece of the base was broken. I also put wolverine on the base and the back foot fit flush but the front foot was completely off the base.

I've called, sent in pics and did a replacement request from my order status. Haven't heard anything back but this is only the second day.

Sideshow Superman PF within standard variance

So Sideshow say these massive black marks under superman's pecs that look like a 2year old went to town on the piece with a sharpie is apparently within standard variance and "cant guarantee that a replacement would not be the same or worse". This is a joke sideshow hire some QC inspectors at your Chinese factories or don't ship from there. A legally blind person could have seen this was unacceptable.

Egad!!!! And you probably spent a significant margin to get the Ex direct from Sideshow. Truly it's not worth the hassle sometimes.

Crisis averted

Sideshows head returns coordinator has admitted there is an issue and will replace the statue in full with one checked and inspected from their LA HQ
