Is everyone serious??!? You all really think that base is huge? I don't think it looks any bigger than most of the statues we have seen of late. In fact I think it looks small by comparison to most. The fact that Batgirl is coming out from the base gives the whole statue a large footprint, yes, but that is soooooooo cool! She looks so dynamic. Perfect work of art to display!
Anyone who thinks this is big please don't purchase Black Panther, Namor, Sandman, Batman, Ghost Rider... you will quite literally ---- yourself. Looks no bigger than even SS Wolverine BC or Phoenix..
I absolutely love the concept and design so far and can't wait to see more, I want it!

I find that people that complain about the base being too big are the ones that can't fit it in a besta. It's simple, find another place to put it! I wouldn't want a smaller base. A base can make or break a statue. Xm is known for their bases and I don't want them to stop making big or elorborate bases because people can't fit it in a besta. Custom cabinets or put it on a table or pedestal fellas!

I don't think people are complaining that the base is too big. No one complained when she was faced in the opposite direction. It's the combination of the base and her leaping off of it at a severe angle that makes it difficult to display.

I love the big base and the theme of it all. You don't have space for the epic base then too damn bad. XM loves their big bases so it shouldn't be any secret to you by now. As far as it changing, it's not like too many other past XM pieces shrunk considerably because of few complained about the size. So it should be here to stay, which I'm happy to see.

It's an Internet forum, it's what people love to do. Complain about things just for the sake of it.

My problem isn't the size of the base, but how she connects to it. She is about to leave the base completely. It makes the base look like an EX you could have bought the statue without. If she was standing up straight on it then it would be awesome.

That I can understand. You never know, it might have multiple display options like vulture and this base seems to be able to support that.

I don't know how the Vulture statue worked. Were you able to place him on other parts of the base?

You are able to mount him at the very top, or down on the slope.
My idea is a modification of that for Batgirl, just on opposite sides of the base.

Exactly! Easiest fix in my opinion.
