TH is most certainly a class act. I really hope they get legions of followers following this.

Hi guys, Im based in the Philippines, just picked up my Superman TH from a local collectible store, it is my very first collectible, upon checking from the store, noticed some scratches on the chest area, and a red paint dot on the face that I could not remove. Have not checked the other areas yet which I will do when i get home and post pics later. Just wondering if TH will cover us from other countries as well for replacement? Kind of disappointing since it's my first time buying something like this. Thanks

EDIT: Adding Pics

1. Red paint smudge on the face


2. Left side of the cape has a damage near the tip


3. Shoulders has a light streak of reddish paint


4. Black paint smudges on the trunks + pinkish paint on the edge of the oval


5. Right side of the cape has a chipped off paint at the tip


6. Another look at the chipped off paint on the cape tip


7. Lower chest areas have what seems like retouch paints, the blue color is a bit lighter than the rest


8. A look at the emblem and its paint job, the yellow also has pinkish outline on the edges


Apologies for the crappy pics. Apart from these paint issues, the whole statue was dirty, for some reason, there were sticky residues on the statue, kind of like when you put tape on something, then after some time you peel off the tape and you are left with sticky rubber like residues. I found several of these around the whole body.

I had some bumper pads in a drawer that I’d picked up at Michael’s. I affixed one to that side and it solved the problem.
The tilt was actually worse than I thought, especially when viewed at this angle.

Was your Supes’ tilt this bad? He looks like he’s about to fall over.

It might have been. Not sure. But a 5th pad on the right side really fixed it.

How does it look between Supergirl and Joker?

It would’ve looked nice except instead of a towering Superman, I instead ended up with a leaning tower of Pisa. Lol

It also has leaning on mine, not sure if it is by design, with Superman taking a step forward and all

Mines is leaning also, it's kind of weird they way they sculpted it, from the foot to his bottom knee it's straight up but from his bottom knee to his chest it's leaning forward. He should be standing straight up and not leaning forward.... you only lean forward if your running.... If Chad is redoing this statue he might want to look into that...
