So just the sword is 10 inches? Isn't the sword real metal also? Any concern about it warping the arm over time being outstretched like that?

You know it does feel a little harder material that the rest of the statue. So maybe it is metal. I’d have to put a magnet 🧲 to it later on to find out for sure.

The sword hand does sort of droop out of the arm socket a little so there’s that.

If you get the Ex and are worried about it, just use the crushed helmet hand. It looks just as good. IMO.

You might already be aware, but magnets don't work on all types of metal. Mostly they only work on materials that include iron or nickel.

Well the base is 17” and There is a body that protrudes off the back about 2”

So add the sword and it’s 29”

Thing is big.. lol.

I had to turn mine to the lady a little so no one runs into it.

This is true

Let’s just say it’s of a metal type. Lol.

It does feel like it is.

DANG that is huge

kind of sucks as i wont be able to display him straight on but sounds like im going to have to turn it slightly if i want to display the sword. to be honest i kind of expected that though, part of the reason im getting out of this line. these things look big in pictures but i think its difficult to grasp their true size or the logistics of displaying them until you have them in hand. thanks for checking bro

Got mine as well. Holy hell! I though Guts was amazing but this in my opinion is one more rung up the freaking awesome ladder.Very brutal! I wish I could have his sword out but its way to long for my situation.

Yeah I took the sword hand off and I’m using the crushed helmet.

It’s just too big and too much risk having the sword hand in.

Don’t like him turned to the side like that either. Better to look at him straight on.

Did you have any trouble with the cape being tied too tight for his head to sit down in properly? That was my only problem besides a very small break on his chest piece.
