Could I trouble you for a pic? Other users seem to be implying the gap is by design.

Again, it's based on your tolerances of what you consider to be a gap or not. In my opinion, if there is contact with the foot and base, that isn't a gap.

Thanks for humoring me, though I might have been unclear. I’m fine with some space in the front of the shoe if that’s just the shape of the boot or it’s obvious that contact is being made with the heel. My point was, on the right foot, which is angled downward so that the heel is up in the air, the front part should have contact with the base, but there does not appear to be any contact with the base. So that it looks like you could slide something entirely underneath. If that’s just how it is, then that’s just how it is. But numerous people have said theirs is perfectly flush. Its unclear to me if that means just like yours or what I had pictured in my own, possibly deluded, imagination.

He isn't attached to the base so as Gary said, of course there will be separation, but the feet on mine don't hover like some I've seen.

There might be the slightest of gaps between the toe of his boot and the base but the pad of his foot appears to be making contact to my eye.

I think, to answer your earlier post, it's as good as it gets. Though it all seems relative because I would call that a flush fit.

If the question is about his right heal being raised then that is totally by design and is part of the pose meant to convey that he is leaning forward crushing the throne arm and about to rise.

Mine are flush as well. I cannot slide a piece of paper all the way through under it.

No, I know the heel is like that. That’s exactly why the front should be flush.

...but it's not possible for it to be because it's not a flat surface.

I tried, still don't what the issue is. The right toe is flush.
