I guess you think the statue will lean over time due to humidity and temperature?

When we look at the sculpture technically, yes, the center of force accumulates in the arm area. However, when making such unique sculptures and considering their prices, I think there should be no such flaws.

If I remember correctly, there was once a similar bending situation on the Enterbay Bruce Lee statue.

I hope you don't have any problems and enjoy exhibiting your statue.

There is a metal rod in the supporting arm. The question is, is the rod thick enough?
If the rod bends, the resin around the rod will presumably crack?

Time will tell..

It's such a fantastic, unique statue, which I have been tempted by...but I just can't pull the trigger. Have absolutely no love for the character.

I 100% agree with you. I have zero interest in the character.
As a statue, Elena looks great! ..the BBTS deal and me wanting a companion piece for Laura Matsuda, it was a no brainer.

It's such a unique piece. The pose alone makes it a stand out.

I cannot imagine ever seeing another statue with the same pose as Elena.

For this reason and because of her cheerful smile, the statue is still on my shopping list.

Cool statue, I just don’t collect anything street Fighter or video game for that matter, but it is stunning nonetheless.
