I can't figure out where the slot is to hang Silver Surfer off his arm, but HE LOOKS AMAZING!

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Took me a little while to find it as well...look for a small square silver area on the forearm area of his right hand...it is removeable....once off, it reveals a slot to attach SS or Nova

i'll never understand the fascination with heavy statues. Unless it arrives busted, what difference does the weight make? Put it on a shelf and leave it alone. No one looks at a piece and says "boy that Galactus sure is nice, if only he weighed another 5 pounds he'd be perfect!"

and Hulk maquette was plenty heavy. I don't miss the days of 35lbs+ 1/4 statues

I know were your coming from but it's this for 800.00+ shipping I would like it to be heavy or solid. Because over all if I move I would this like the peace at mind to know pack it up good and I am set. Like my grey hulk comiquette I know he's not goin to brake on me and I love knowing that.

I agree. I’ll never understand people not caring that their statues are now light as a feather. The money you’re paying for these things, when you pick it up it should feel like you’ve picked up something feeling solid. It’s pretty much like when you buy a bronze statue. You wouldn’t want to have some super hollow bronze piece. Well with a regular statue IMO it’s a bit the same. If these companies are gonna start skimping on materials and quality then they shouldn’t be raising prices. It’s ridiculous.

I'd normally agree with this unless he's made from fiberglass. As far as I know, fiberglass (like the Rhino) is stronger yet lighter than resin.
