Ugh! Mine fell from it's shelf again! No matter how stable you get it, gravity just slowly moves the ankle joints until it falls over. I think I may need to devise some sort of stand for it............it's ????ing annoying as hell! And it landed on the HDD section of my laptop!

Yeah, I'm thinking $135 is the cheapest also.

Hmm...sounds like my mid-section.

Is there anything that is causing a slight vibration that might be causing it to fall? Does the base sit completely flat?
To ChaserFan.
Mine fell on to the floor about three times due to weak ankles. I then posed it so that the weight of the tail is behind the figure. The tail also just touches the backdrop. The center of gravity now means that it would fall backwards, but the tail touching the backdrop means it does not go anywhere.

Yeah, the base is flat. It's pretty much just loose ankles.
Cheers, I'll try that! It's just so frustrating!

Mine hasn't had that problem, it's been pretty stable. One thing I noticed is that if you use the base, try to prop the figure up using the back of the heels against the back inside edge of the base, it helps to stabilize it.
This isn't the display pose I use, I currently have it more upright.

Anyone know if Goodshipped has got his bulk stock in yet? The wait's killing me.

hmmmm. weak/loose ankle joints seem to be a pretty common problem with hot toys figures. my iron man mark1, robocop, and tdk batman all have this issue. it's nerve-wracking, worrying about if/when they're gonna fall over.

That's why in most cases HT provides you with a stand.
It spares you from that one extra gray hair.

That looks like a pretty good suit replica, but what's up with the seam at the back of the head?

but i absolutely hate using the stand. just spoils the realism of the piece, imo.

Thanks for looking.
those pics are superb.....
Small price to pay to prevent the thing falling and breaking, or paint scratching off. I just don't know how you guys can take the risk.

How is that stoop pose even possible? That's some real gravity defying posing there! Awesome!
