I like it, but I don't know how much I trust that pose over time. If there's just a small metal peg that goes from the right foot into the base I don't think I can pull the trigger.

I love this piece. I wish he’d speed his way across the Pacific Ocean, vibrate through the walls of the Secret Sanctuary, and come to a screeching halt on the shelf between Aquaman and Superman.

Timing seems right for a Reverse Flash variant for Spooktacular.

This piece is fantastic, unique, without equal, there is no other piece of Flash that has captured so singularly the essence of the greatest sprinter of all time. This is the Flash that can actually be called Flash, running as an red ray, going around the globe before the first blink of an eye.
Even the sensation that your hands are disproportionate (only sensation, since it has already been measured and validated and are normal) is a spectacle apart, as if the force of gravity, breaking, was deforming and creating an optical illusion in the lowly observer.

The peg really isn't the issue. It's how far the metal post goes up his leg. If the post only goes as high as his ankle, it will definitely lean over time. However, if the metal post goes up through his thigh, it should be secure. Sideshow has done a much better job with engineering on these statues that have off balance poses. Just look at the Spidey PF. Everyone was thinking that would lean for sure but sideshow seems to have gotten it right because I haven't seen any leaning complaints with it. It looks like sideshow has learned from past mistakes on this issue. So long as they keep using long metal posts in these off balance poses, there shouldn't be any leaning issues. I'm going to take the chance that they got this right and add Flash to my collection.

I hope they do a variant but i would want to see a mirror image of this statue with a different portrait and hand positioning. Its a completely different character that deserves its own statue not a straight repaint

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

Need some better pics as this does look a little washed out.

Iris is happy.
That's what really matters.
