Hi is anyone else having trouble getting the back leg peg into the base. I wasted 30 minutes trying many different angels and ways but cannot get the back leg into the base. It's not even a small gap, but a giant 3 inch gap. Just wondering if it's an issue with just me or everyone.
Sideshow always seem to have problems with their damn pegs into the hole. Why not just make the holes bigger, or test out each statue before packing it.
Otherwise the statue looks perfect and awesome, so annoying
I had same issue. I struggle for long enough and ask sideshow for replacement.
And they reply with below methode.
It worked for me. It's like clicked into position and very sturdy.
Maybe u can try but when you grab wolverine right leg be careful with his boots tip. If you grab too hard it might break.

While it may require a little bit of effort to get the statue to fit right, we did receive confirmation from our production team that all of the Wolverine statues were tested for fit beforehand. Because of this, I am confident that we can resolve this issue through some troubleshooting. Please attempt the following instructions to help your Wolverine fit properly into his base.
1. Before attempting to insert the key into the base, take a moment to observe the angle of the metal peg on his foot and the socket hole inside the base. Aligning these two parts is more important than the position of the front foot at this point, as you will be able to slightly pivot that foot into position in a moment.
2. Once the peg is lined up,
grip Wolverine on his right leg firmly with one hand, and with your other hand brace under the Sentinel's wrist. You may need to press it down with a firm/reasonable force.
I completely understand any apprehension to do this, but rest assured that we will still be able to help you if this results in any damage to the statue.
Now for that front foot. You will need to make sure that you do not have Wolverine's heel resting on the higher lip area of the Sentinel's finger as this can prevent the back foot from seating fully into the base. Again, there should be a small bit of wiggle room to which you can pivot this foot into the correct spot.

They claim all of the Wolverine statues were tested for fit beforehand.
Hope it's working for you!
