Lol, part of the new statue experience trying to blow off the little pieces so that you don't accidentally break something.

Awesome set up man, congrats on your new piece. I can't wait to get mine

Does the right arm and right hand with scythe move on yours ever so slightly ? It’s really a small amount on mine, but I can sort of rotate it just a bit. Was wondering because the other magnetized keyholes don’t move at all obviously

Not really. It's in there fairly snug and the magnet has it.

Yeah mine is there snug too, but I guess like the hand piece for instance. There’s some give to twist it back and forth very very slightly almost as if he were twisting his wrist. Not like anything is falling out, but it can kind of rotate back and forth just a little bit

I uploaded a very short video showing what I am talking about with the sort of looseness with the arm and hand.... as I said, its a very minor thing. But I guess what my concern is , is whether or not the arm should be locked into the more raised position, because if so, it will just keep falling down. As I put it in the lower position, it doesnt move down anymore and stays there, unless I kind of touch the arm or hand it knocks the arm up a bit. Not that I am going to be touching the statue like this normally, but I also dont want parts to be loose if they arent supposed to be.

I just checked mine. There is no give like that at all for either parts. Are you sure you’re in all the way?

And I’ve found I’m posing it with the nightmare portrait mainly because the normal portrait can stand on its own thanks to his hair.



And I love how great the normal portrait turned out. Much more menacing in person.

I think the regular head looks way better than the EX. That one looks like a demon cowboy. I like the way you mixed 1/4 with 1/3. Looks nice.

I literally want a Bust that looks like it's coming from out behind the grave to hold the other head.

The pieces are completely in, and fully magnetized down, they just move side to side like that while there.
