That’s the illusion of converting 3D into a 2D image.

His left arm is also out at an angle so in some pics it looks longer. In person none of that “Forced perspective” is noticeable. Looks perfect.

The one with Batman and GL looks best to me. They all look like they're attacking or about to attack.

I think you guys are right. I'll have to swap it back to this display unless others chime in with a different vote LOL!!

I got mine, sorry for the poor quality of the pics. When I opened it, the Flash body/head piece was not even in the plastic bag, it was laying on top of the plastic bag and there are red paint rubs on the styrofoam from it being exposed (see pictures). Mine also does not key in very well (see pictures). It appears in the keyhole they had scraped around at the back and to try to make it fit and then put some stuff on top to cover up what they did (see picture).

Thoughts from everyone?

I think the colors look better together, and they're all in action or pre-action poses where as WW and Aquaman are in museum poses.

I requested a replacement. I recommend you do the same. Too much $$ to accept anything less than a problem-free piece.

Well looks like it maybe a keyhole issues for most of the Flash. I really wonder if SSC will do a full replacement or will they offer credit. I think I will wait for a new Flash. I prefer museum pose instead of this. It looks off when all the other JLA are just standing.

Same reason I passed on this version as well.
