I love that Spider-man pose and Venom looks pretty good too, I'd like to see some pics when someone gets them in!

Got Venom in... it doesn’t stand properly. Not worth $200. We returned it.

Guess people here don't buy a lot of Vinyl/PVC statues...

It's pretty common for them to come slightly warped, a hairdryer is your best friend when it comes to Vinyl.

For a large and very detailed vinyl piece $175-$200 shipped is pretty good, Spiderman is a lot less also.

Sentinel do quality items and always have.

Just watched the video this morning. How disappointing. I don’t care about it not having a base. But it needs to stand without leaning like it does.

Also in the video you said it’s 1/5. I’d prefer it to be 1/4.

Mine came. Judging it by what it is. A vinyl statue, not polystone or cold cast porcelain, etc.

It’s cool yet flawed. In line with gem_mint, I feel it’s overpriced but all statues are at this point. As stated in his video, some of the seams could be hidden better...the ugliest part is the head seam.

Size wise it seems larger than 1/5 but maybe a small 1:4 like the old SS Comiquette. With his proportions and being very crouched over it’s hard to tell. He doesn’t seem out of place next to Black Panther. I think the photo makes him look a bit smaller compared to in person. His hands, arms and torso are huge compared to my other 1:4s.

The dreaded and well known lean on this...mine isn’t as bad as others. It doesn’t tip over like gem’s did. Still not perfect. The back foot is the main problem. It doesn’t look right. But mine at least stands the way it should. Gem’s was a mess.

I’m torn. At certain angles it looks really great. If I had some type of base to put under him that worked well it’d look really good mixed in with other statues. The sculpting is definitely good. Any non collectors looking at your collection probably wouldn’t see anything different about this piece from your other pieces aside from the lack of base. I feel like it’s a good filler until a killer Venom 1/4 comes along. I don’t want to call this a toy but it’s a solid toy. I feel like it should cost no more than $70 though. It came to under $200 for me but still.

I'll try to see if there is a dedicated thread later, but I picked up their Spiderman. I love it! No issues with its stance.
