Bad ass bro, I have her and I must say I am very impressed with this over the factory by leaps and bounds.

Any of your Ivy started leaning?
Mine has gotten worse over the years.

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

Mine seems to lean a little to her left, checked some youtube reviews from 2013 and a small "lean" to her left seems normal.

So, like, 3 years ago I posted this:

I'm trying to get the main figure inserted in the base, and for the life of me I can't get it to line up right and it's making me feel like an idiot. Like, I can kinda get the 3 main feet/vine posts lined up, but the hole for the metal post on the tip of the left foot doesn't seem to be drilled in the right place and I can't get it to go in.

Have I been sitting on a dud this entire time? Or am I just dumb and overlooking something obvious? I can take some pics to better illustrate what I'm working with if it'll help.
Well tonight I FINALLY got off my ass and fixed it, using this method:

Use the blow dryer to heat up the leg and foot that does not line up with the hole. When the leg and foot are heated, gently push/pull the foot into place. Gradually heat the leg and foot as you go.
I'll admit that I wasn't confident it would work for a while, but it did and the statue looks great! Finally, 6 years after I bought it, I can actually display the thing.

Oh ho ...you finally tried it. It's never too late to try.

Congrats on a great Ivy statue!
