My radar sense is telling me a new statue is coming!
Daredevil Fine Art 1:6 Statue 855/1200 - Kotobukiya
Very appropriate timing since this morning I read Amazing Spider-Man #16 which is Spidey's (and my) first meeting with attorney Matt Murdock a.k.a. Daredevil!
Because I wasn't familiar with the character and the internet pics of the statue weren't thrilling I wasn't sure if I wanted him but since I've not yet been disappointed by Sosa's run at Kotobukiya so far I decided to take a chance... and I'm glad I did!
The sculpt is very nice, the muscle definition is great and the shading on the red is very well done. The base is very nice as well and weighs a freaking ton! I also dig the billy club, it's basically a thin wire similar to what was used in the Spiderman statue and that allows lots of different 'poses' for the wire which is nice.
The only 'issue' I found was that the pegs on the legs are just a tiny bit spread wider than the holes themselves so you have to do a fair bit of wiggle and push to get him in nicely but once in he's flush.
All in all a very nice statue that I'm glad I took a chance on.
