Sideshow Statues with Run-wide Problems

This is a thread for statues that have either design issues or manufacturing issues that affected the entire run.

--------------------------------------------------

2011
Rogue
This one was from a while ago. From what I understand, the heads had very poor paint application, and some of the heads didn't even fit properly on the statues. Some/many forum members were unhappy with the replacements that Sideshow sent.

2015
Modern Thor
The base is susceptible to leaning, so Sideshow created a "wedge" to widen the base's footprint.




2017
Huntress
The purple dye on the cape bleeds onto the white trim. The white trim (which is made from some sort of pleather material) is also known to crack.

Gothamite, we get it, you're not happy about Huntress' cape.

To bash Sideshow! Funny thing is Sideshow has been in business for 24 years and there are only 3 statues listed, which means at that rate this thread wil be updated roughly every 8 years. Sounds like a winner!

There's a lot more that have issues then this ;p ---- literally every statue in the mythos line had issues. Anything alien or predator, and my first statue ever from SS (Isaac Clarke) was a disaster. Obviously it wasn't as a big a character as rogue but they ----ed it up even more :| Color wrong, sloppy paint, mispainted stuff (blood spatter abruptly ended on hand cause they forgot to paint it) and crooked helmet. They've been doing crap stuff forever, I don't think the huntress is that bad but I don't really have it in hand to comment on it.
