Well a strange thing happen the 2 weeks ago. My LCS go to sets of the Fantastic Four statues. Something I was not really interested in, but i really like Sue Storm. The owner said he was going to ship them back, and was waiting for a confirmation for pick up.
I went to my LCS yesterday and they still had the statues, so I told the owner I really like Sue and what was the cheapest he could sale them to me for. After a few minutes of walking around he came back and sad I could have the set for $300. So I pulled the trigger.
Sorry for the picture, but all I have right now is my Iphone.
The only disappointment was that the Human Torch fire is not attached to his hand and that there is a note that says to use glue. But what if I need to repack it for a move? Gluing something to his hand would make it impossible to put him back in the box. I did manage to balance the flame on his hand. I think this statue should have had a removable hand with the flame. But other than that I really like this set, and since I don't have Thing I put them with my She-Hulk.

This is great stuff, but I'm going to move it to our collection section. The Introduce Yourself section is mainly for more personal things & pics of you.
I can't believe no one has pointed this out yet, but your 90's Jean Grey is placed on the base wrong. I'm scared she'll fall and break just giving you a heads up.
Love the collection though! I'm looking forward to getting Juggernaut myself.
I placed her that way on purpose. The shelf I first had her on was small so I had to place her on the base that way. She is quite stable, and I have had her like that since I first bought the statue 2 years ago. I love the look because she looks like she is flying.
But I think I will have to place her in the "correct position" to make some more room. To bad. I like her how I have her. But I think I want to put all my Jean Grey statues on one shelf. So it looks like I will have to place her in the advertise position to accomplish this.
She-Hulk's base is an inch shorter than the rest of the FF. I going to try to find something that is stable to place under her when I rearrange my statue.
I'm going to have a shelf for the Fantastic Four and the other for X-Factor.
I can't believe I didn't post this here. This is my daughter as She-Hulk for Halloween this year.
She is a huge Hulk fan. She even has a spot on the shelf for the Hulk statue she wants.
I had to make this costume since there is no such thing as a pre-made She-Hulk statue for some strange reason. I guess my daughter is the only little girl on the planet that likes the Hulk and She-Hulk.
Boy does my wife hate me right now.
