a death in the family

So i came home to this the other day. Apparently my Sideshow Sinestro Premium format figure decided to end it all. Has anyone else had this happen with theirs? Looks like he developed a lean and with the narrow base and top heavy statue - well you see the aftermath.
My display case was level so I really have no other explanation for it.

That looks odd. I had to take a hammer to my Wolverine PF to break it in that many pieces . Just saying .

I have not contacted Sideshow, not sure what they would do for me at this point, since he was released awhile ago. The foot that rested on the base was never a good fit , it was fine with no leaning issues and then one day splat!

Yep, this was may first Sideshow or statue from any manufacturer that this happened to. He fell from about 5 ft, that's all I know.

I decided to put humpty dumpty{SINESTRO} back together again, since his fatal fall. He was looking good, then the inevitable happened, he took another fall. So , I put him back together a second time.I have not repaired the cracked lines or done any paint yet, this is just the glued version. Waiting to see if he falls again, table is leveled so hopefully that wont happen .Thought about making a base add-on to help .I do have the exclusive version so I have the 2 extra arms.

Before all the crazy lifestyle changes we all are now living in, I decided to give the office/statue room some new display cabinets. Was going to go the custom route but ended up with the IKEA Besta's in a darker color and very pleased with the look and how it gave the room a nice boost in appearance. Decided to use the small ones on the lower level for books, to raise the statues higher so no statue would be on the ground level.Still haven't fully committed to the actual placement of some of the statues, have a few on preorder, so things may get shifted.
