Statue Batman: Black And White Statues (2012)

[BB&WSF]

Yea I'm in Toronto Canada. I had a feeling you bought from that guy, his prices were crazy good. I was so close to buying from him but backed out - You have to let me know if he falls through I might buy stuff from him in the near future. For now I get my stuff from superpowercollectibles.

You in Canada too?

The price caught me too and I went ahead with it. Lets see how this goes, will definitely keep you updated. I am in Asia N. If I was in Canada, this hobby would have been much easier to maintain

So I have a question, how many of you here are completists? Even to the point of getting all re-releases? And finally, do you display both releases next to each other?

Guess that's more than just one question.

Congrats on Jock and Quietly CC!

Though I haven't been able to, as I missed out on a few of them earlier, but I'd love to be a completist in this line. However, don't think I'll be getting the re-releases, unless its the one I do not have. About display, haven't really figured it out yet. Would love to get something which looks like the Ikea bookcases. Still researching on what's available in the market, otherwise will go the old carpenter way for a custom.

Nice displays, I might end up building one myself. Won't be able to for a while though.

I was a completist and purchased the varient mignola. But I will not be getting the two other re-releases (or any others for that matter).

If they had to rehash these, coloured version would be more fun, and something I would purchase.

I decided to try to get the villans that I missed out on. My plan is to get another detolf display case so that I can put all of the Bats in one and villains in the other. The problem is getting the villains for a resonable price. I've yet to pay over $125 for any of my statues and intend to keep it that way. Oh, and if anyone's looking to off-load a Jim Lee Joker, Bolland Penguin, or a Manbat, Hit me up.

I just buy Jokers, along with key Batman pieces by my fave artists (as long as they translate well), but it would be so easy to go completist on this line, as I truly think it is one of the unsung great lines out there, despite the pricing being a bit rich and any other niggles.

 

[Narcosis]

Hey guys. Quick question - What would you consider a decent deal today for the first version of Mignola's black and white bats.

I just bought one. Its being shipped. I think I went blind sighted and thought I was getting a good price.

Any replies are appreciated - thanks

 

[BB&WSF]

Don't really know N; however, if you look at bay's completed auctions, they usually go for around $200

What did you pay? I think anything above $150 is too much, but that's just me though. I don't make much money to begin with, otherwise I would own a bunch of the Hot Toys Batman figures and vehicles.

Yeah looks to be around the price he goes for, there's some really high prices on there too I can't believe some people spend more than 200 on this one

I paid quite a bit. I paid $156 + $12 shipping so $168 total. It's a lot but I guess this where it helps to only collect the ones I really like.

He's supposed to be new never displayed but I'll know for sure when I get him. I could tell you guys one thing though - he's definitely the most I've ever spent on a black and white. And definitely the last time I spend so much

Well at least you didn't pay the insane $300+ prices that I've seen out there. Don't know what some people are thinking with that price.

BB&WSF I remember you saying you had this guy on PO from a canadian seller, mind if I ask from who?

Thought I'll give you an update on this.

Have not recieved the statue yet. Sent 4 mails, both via eBay and his personal email IDs which were mentioned in the PayPal transaction. But, what I feared, happened. No replies. He's got 17 negatives this month alone, no more products to sell, I think his bay account will soon closed down too.

His name, as he states in his mails, is Armand Levy. eBay ID: 5stardeals11

Damages were $64.5. However, I spoke with citibank and they have reversed the charge, will investigate and within 5 days they will close the case. Hoping the temp charge reversal will become permanent.

If not, a good lesson learnt for life for $64.5: Never PO on the bay

 

[Narcosis]

Wow man what a crook. I hate to see this kind of thing happen I hope the reversal stays put in your favour. Could you imagine how many people this guy scams through PO's. The worst thing is the majority of his rep looks clean because while people are waiting on their PO's, its too late to leave a negative if something goes wrong.

Look he's a fellow Canadian I could pay him a visit if you want - Batarang to the head outta do it

Thanks man Guess I will wait till the charge back gets permanent, if not, I will get back to you

And you're right, he's scamming on POs basically. Sad. Anyways, what goes around comes around. He will pay for what he has done, this way or that.

 

[ChaosCursed]

Sorry to hear about your misfortune BB&WSF and you're right, he'll get his one way or another. I just found out that my Bane PO got pushed back to December. They're going to send my New 52 Bats that they were holding until the Bane came in. It was supposed to be free shipping for both together so they are waiving the separate shipping fees. Still need to find me a Jim Lee Joker for a decent price, but that will have to wait since I'm saving for the new nook coming out.

If you wouldn't mind, where did you order Bane and the New 52 from CC? Can you ask them to hold the New 52 till Bane arrives (in case you're not too egar for 52).

Came across these two auctions, in case you haven't seen them yet:

I bought both B/W Bolland Joker and B/W Bane from this seller 5stardeals11!!! I called ebay and the was told this seller is under investigation and i have to work with Bill me Later to get my money back. I will NOT pre-order from eBay ANYMORE!!

 

[ChaosCursed]

I ordered them from dreamlandcomics.com. I like the PO prices they have and they give free shipping on orders over $75 and a maximum of $5 per item below $75. I just saw those Jokers about 3 hours ago, but I have to save my money for my new Nook HD+ that is coming out next month. I sold some exclusive figures in order to help fund it. So far I got 2/3 of what it's going to cost me and just have to sell my nook color to get the rest. Would have loved to get that Joker for $75 though. Had it been Payday, It would have been mine!

 

[BB&WSF]

Nice site CC, will try them sometime.

Is the Frank Miller statue mixed media or is it all statue? (I'm referring to the rope on the Batarang)

The rope is braided wire.
