Sorry to see that. Lewis Villamar on Facebook is a pro and does a ton of statue repairs. He is based in California.

True, but last I heard is that he's super busy and not taking any new repair work for the foreseeable future. Feel free to ask anyway in case things have changed.

Get the broken wing professionally repaired or try using a dremel or maybe sand paper on the undamaged wing?s key to get it to fit into the key hole. But I would rather hire a professional to do either of those options.




Here is the damage in 3 places.



Another picture of the damage.



I have all 3 broken pieces in a bag.



Here is the undamaged wing that does not key in properly.



Here are the two key molds.
The one on the left is the damaged wing that fits perfectly. The one on the right is the undamaged wing that does not key in properly. Note: the two keys are molded in slightly different shapes. Most noticeable are the bottom shapes the corners are slanted in opposite directions.

Question, was that damage done with your XM Studio Shipper box?

XM Studios News

Pictures on long released XM Studios Dark Phoenix 1:4 statue by Art Statue Collector. She looks still beautifull.

"After Jean and the X-Men defeated scientist Stephen Lang and his robotic Sentinels on his space station, the heroes escaped back to Earth in a shuttle through a lethal solar radiation storm. Dying from radiation poisoning, Jean was saved by the cosmic entity known as the Phoenix Force who created a duplicate body complete with memories and personality, absorbed a portion of her consciousness and cast her into suspended animation in a strange cocoon at the bottom of Jamaica Bay. For months the Phoenix believed itself to be the real Jean and saved the universe by healing the M?Kraan Crystal. Mental manipulation by Mastermind caused Phoenix to go insane and become Dark Phoenix."

Hey, thanks, yeah, their dimensions were actually why I was asking LOL. I assume L = length, which in this case means side to side width? No clue what B stands for.... maybe they meant D for depth (front to back)? Plus, either or (50 vs 42) I assume that means tip of her finger to back of the phoenix, which looks a bit larger than the actual base.

Cool, thanks. So I'd still like to know how much smaller (albeit barely) than 42 cm that actual base diameter is.
