I've had this model for quite some years now, got it new out of the box.
Assembled it and found out that it isn't stable. Atleast for me my model hangs a bit to the right, while it's glued in the middle of the base.

Anyone else encountered this with his model or knows a solution?

Try putty in its base, worked for my easily falling Balrog.

You could also try a large metal washer glued to the base.

Some largish rocks when you do the basing?

I did two things:

1. don't put it in the centre of the base, to balance out it needs to be further back.

2. also added a large rock at the front of the base.

And try not to drop it or knock it off a table or shelf (like I did). Metal has so much mass that breakages are inevitable even in a short tumble.
