Statue Prime 1 Studio - Optimus Prime

Ok so I have a quick question guys, im sure its already been answered but I just cant look though all of the pages, my prime left leg is basically hovering off the groundby maybe 1-2 mm. How can I fix this, is this an issue with a lot of em? Is that they way its ment to be? Is it a defect? I know the megatron kinda had this problem too but not as bad on mine. Am I putting in wrong. Any help is much appreciated guys and sorry if its been asked already.

No issue! no worry as you may not know the base is not flat. some of the finger foot are hovering. its meant to be like this.

Oh ok, I was a bit worried, I mean it still is stable and isn't moving but I just though it weird that was hovering a bit. So yours is the same too?

Yes and my friends too. I also asked to Prime1 about it to make sure.. they told me is meant to be like this.

The reason also if you try to fix it probably cant stand my himself anymore without the base.

I wonder why, I mean its not a big deal and you really cant see it unless you look at it but I just think its strange they would have a foot hoover a bit.

Love your setup. May we know the table measurement for Prime and Meg? Plus, what turntable is that, where you purchase it?

The 2 pedestals are custom built. Optimus = 25"x25", Megatron=25"x29". I bought this 15" turntable from Amazon. Amazon.com : LapWorks 15" Heavy Duty Swivel - LIFETIME WARRANTY - With Steel Ball Bearings for Indoor/Outdoor Use With Flat Panel Monitors and Big Screen Tv's : Computer Monitor Stands : Office Products

If I'm not mistaken, I believe the Megatron also had the same issues where the foot was also hovering. Looking at my base I can also see that the base is definitely not 100% level on the top which is partly the reason for it not sitting flush on the base. Not a major problem like you mentioned but still very annoying none the less

Ok so your in the same boat too then? Well at least im not the only one lol. And yes my megatron left foot hovers a bit too but it seems to not be as high or as noticeable.

Actually mr Bagg I was wondering if I could get your input, my large gun, on the bottom where the plastic piece is broke, well one side did, its an easy fix and they give you glue to fix it but I was wondering if using super glue would be better? Or should I use there stuff or a type of model glue? your thoughts? And of course anyone else who may know, thanks in advance guys.

You should use the glue provide with Optimus this glue is really good.

I've not received my Optimus Prime yet so maybe I'm not in the best position to answer that buddy but in the past I've used normal run of the mill superglue to help fix statues. However, if Prime 1 have provided you with their own glue then I'd definitely agree with NL and advise you use their one buddy

Why does prime 1 give you glue ?

 

[Yatyau]

My piece front toe of both feet do hover 1mm from the ground, does not matter as long as it will not make it fall down

They give you spare chrome parts very fragile. in case if you break it so you have extra one to fix it.

I used to cut out parts and reassembled it with aron alpha glue, very tight, as many of the parts are simply PVC and resin.

Nice job! Was it hard to remove the parts pretty scary.
