I'll still wait to see it in person before I contact sideshow but I'm definitely curious if someone would be willing to do a custom base for this piece to match the proto???

Proto is what you'll have leaning starts lmao jkjk but for real, wow

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I prefer the production too.

Hate to disagree - how many people do you see running bleachers with that lean? Even fast, they tend to be more upright. Yes the proto looks like he is leaving the starting blocks, but I am just as happy with the production version as he still has a lean and looks like he is running mid race really working those arms.

Depends on the bleachers I suppose.
....and since you’re in my home town (and a Chiefs fan if you’re smart) I’ll let you disagree with me

Sorry if it seemed like I came down hard on ya. Wouldn't intentionally try to correct a brother - World Champion - Chiefs fan!!!! Just excited to finally get a decent Flash to round out my JLA premium format collection. Here's hoping Martian Manhunter isn't too far behind. Would also like a Sideshow PF Hawkman at a decent price.

Flash is definitely cool and when they do a MM, they’ll have some more experience behind their belt and make him fantastic.
