The suit on Superman is just as prone to sticking/fusing together as Jor-El and Amazing Spidey suits.... keeping the arms to the sides will result in the suit at the arm-pits sticking together..... Approx. 10 days in post/shipping/planes did it to mine....

Did it rip when you reposed the arms?

It also happened to mine after I went for a vacation for 2 weeks, I left my figure in a normal standing pose with the arms down. I came back to check my figure and this is what happened... The rubber pattern of the suit at the armpit area sticked together and was ripped after I raised the right arm. Also happened to the left arm but I managed to save the rubber pattern from being ripped.

What a load of bollix! We pay so much money for these figures and now even a museum pose is ruining figures!

Just to add to my initial set of photos a few posts prior... here's my attempt at the "vault" scene. The figure can't quite make the same pose as the reference photo I used, but I tried my best (without breaking, tearing something).

Sorry to hear this, man. After seeing your post I checked mine right away, as it's been in my detolf for 2 weeks, in contrapposto and both arms clipped to the torso. It's been very humid here lately but no sticking of the suit for which I am thankful.

Thanks man. It is still better to check it regularly. In case this happens to you, just slowly and gently try to pull the suit apart to separate them. You can still save the suit. Mine was ripped because I was not aware of this issue when I raised the right arm. Enjoy your MOS figure!

Broke out my Dynamic figure stand.



I like the stand a lot but I wish the base was smaller and a bit heavier.

I went and checked mine, and yes indeed: I had the arms down, and to lift them I had to sort of peel the sleeve away from the torso. No harm was done, but people need to be aware of this issue. I'm pretty disappointed, to be honest, figures as expensive as these need to not be this fragile.

He looks fine with his arms held away from his body, but that's not the point. The point is, these suits need not to melt by just standing around. Zod better not be this fragile.

I wait for the second version, together with Batman.
