I'm gutted. After Gerry showed us his Doctor Doom on a turret statue a few pages back, I fell in love with it & determined to make one my own. I won one on eBay last week (a non-bronzed one, no. 1946 of 5000) and it arrived in the mail today. This is what came out of the box.
It wasn't the seller's fault. He'd packed the statue in tonnes of bubble wrap. It must have shifted in transit.
Does anyone have any suggestions about how to get it repaired? I'm not too handy, so I'm not keen to attempt the job myself.

I've emailed the seller to ask, but I haven't heard back yet due to the time differences.

Dude, my heart bleeds. I just had to move and I had two casualties. The base of the Alex Ross Superman Forever Statue and Gil Kane Superman Special #1 Cover to Cover statue.

Michael, if it's not insured, I'd try searching the Statue Forum. There are fans and pros alike on the forum that could take care of that for you.

Just don't hire Peter or Bobby Brady to repair it. Those guys aren't too good with the glue.
