I have something similar on the chest. Do you think I should contact Sideshow?

While I've noticed if you go too far too much on the knee it looks like the knee pad COULD give, I have had my Deadpool in VERY extreme poses day in and day out against what the instructions say to do, and haven't found any issues with the suit or figure. It's all basically common sense though. If you do something that they recommend against in the booklet, and something happens to the figure because of it, it's your fault, your problem, not Sideshow. I get it, it's nearly impossible to resist posing him over and over, I keep putting him in all these poses and I have never posed....? Let's just admit...PLAYED....with a 6th scale figure nearly as much as I have this one and I am aware of the possible limitations they recommend and I accept all responsibility if I do something to cause issue with the figure and/or suit.....but man, I don't even care at this point. I'm not selling it, my wife got it for me, I LOVE it and I'm going to get my money's worth and enjoy an amazing figure.
I think people need to just accept responsibility and be reasonable with these things. They're not like the action figures we buy at wal*mart or toys r us for $10 or even those $50 ones that we can do all sorts of insanity with like when we were kids, dropping G.I. Joe's out of trees with those parachutes that occasionally worked and the figure barely got a scratch. They're $200+ each and not meant to be played with and posed in extreme ways. That's why they put in those booklets with warnings. I completely understand if you get it, unbox one of these, and there's big issues. I hope that EVERYONE'S figures are perfect for them and they get all the joy in the world from them, but we all gotta be reasonable and responsible too, that's all I'm saying.
Incidentally my review should be up this week. Just lagging behind due to classes.

The custom market just keeps getting better and better. [emoji7]
In the paraphrased words of Jay-Z: "If you didn't this head sculpt, I feel bad for you son, I've got 99 problems but Wade ain't one, now hit me!" [emoji445][emoji445]

Totally agree with your points.

Finally received Deadpool yesterday, and noticed something. One of his pouches is upside down. Meant to be this way or an assembling error? If so, can the belt be removed easy to fix it? Seems kinda fragile.

Is there a dedicated thread for the sideshow deadpool figure?

There is one. Use the search feature and you should be able to locate it. Not trying to be a smart a#@, just suggesting it.

Found it. Had to look through several pages. I could not locate it when I searched either.

If you know it's upside down, why would it be meant to be that way?
Yes, it's an assembly error. 
I have yet to see anyone remove pouches for repositioning or fixing an error like this. The only thing I've had happen with the pouches so far is one of them started to open up on one side, so I just did a small dab of glue for it to keep it closed. From what I see on the figure itself, the belt goes through a hoop in the back of the pouches to allow them to slide along the belt length. So your choices are to leave it alone, or try and disassemble it in some way to put it right-side-up. Personally, I'd leave it. Your call! Good luck either way!

That's exactly why I asked. If it was on Batman it wouldn't have been a question.
Some guys put the pouch upside down intentionally for faster reloading, I could see DP doing that
Yup I was right, Deadpool does put some of his pouches upside down
Check out the pouches on this statue

Yeah sure, for that statue he has some upside down, but it's not meant to be that way for this particular figure is the point.
In the end, it's your $230+ figure....leave it if you want, try and fix it if you want. If it doesn't matter to you either way and you still love and enjoy the figure regardless, then it's no big deal.
All that matters is how you feel about it.
