If you saw a heat wave, would you wave back?

To my knowledge the materials problems that happened with some of the BlackWidows was not something that was suppose to creep up 2 years later. It was a material they used for an accessory, the knife I think but I could be wrong, so that it wouldn't brake easily, and it was SO soft that the figure would start to lean with in a WEEK or two of being on display. It wasn't something that was suppose to show up this long afterwards.

Well as I said in my first post, now I'm comparing my first pics with the ones I did few months after, the leaning started to be noticeable...

I wonder if it is going to become more of an issue over time.

Armored...curious what number your black widow is...heard it was a short numbered run of like 10. I have had one boxed up for 2 years and dread it might happen when she is displayed.

I found a pic when I received it...




and found also a pic taken two month after I received and the leaning was already there...damn I should have noticed it...



I already have contacted XM Europe support but this is pissing me off!!! Because I love this statue and I'm sure they won't replace it now...
Wow this sucks! Sorry to see this, hopefully XM takes care of this for you

and they just answered me lol.
They check the factory for spare availability and will come back to me when they have news.

2 years after I'm sure they won't have any spare, but who knows!
