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

What should I look for and what are the weak parts of the statue that are usually broken?
Broken leg, leg to fit in the base, scratches or bad paint apps on the armor, helmet or base, and the shoulder armor to be well connected

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Picked up a perfect one yesterday, no broken parts! Thanks to MyCartoonHeroes

The head doesnt really fit it with a nice snug it kind of just sits on top of the statue which is a little odd and worrysome but other than that looks great.

glad you got a good one. Never heard of MyCartoonHeroes before.

Is it an actual store?

Mine is on the way and I always ask the folks at LCS to check it out for eventual problems before shipping such an expensive item. Apparently in this case everything is okay. I'm curious to check it out myself, of course.

I saw this one in my local store and I was so disappointed in his appearance. He looks not just awkward with his stance.. but also "cheap"
Don't know..he doesn't look like a high end piece.. more then a under $100bucks chinese figure...
