Unless I'm missing something from what he's saying, it doesn't sound like there is any issue to correct. He placed them in the wrong place for added interest, Prime 1 have placed them where they should be.
It's strange, I spend most of my time in the Predator threads where all we request is a little more accuracy at times when it's so often lacking, people tell us we're too demanding and then ask for an accurate Batman to be "corrected" And I'm being lighthearted with that little observation, I do actually agree that they look better on the side as the artwork depicts. But I don't think it's a huge issue really, this statue looks phenomenal to me either way. It's the first DC statue I've been tempted to actually buy....
Would love to get this but having a hard time working out how to display something 70cm deep. Is there anything other than a customer display case or a dining table that this will fit?
Fabok was talking about the 3D model render. No one is commenting if the fins/spikes are on the actual prototype that was painted up. If they are on the back and can't be seen, at least they're there. If they're missing, I'd like them added. If they have to be added, I'd like them to be visible just like they are in the original art source. Either way, I've already purchased this and paid for it in full. However, until we hear from a P1 Rep, we don't officially know anything. Especially since Fabok's comments were based on a model render and not the actual painted prototype.
Unless I’m misunderstanding something the problem with that is that the fins would have to be between somewhere in the vicinity of 90-180 degrees off from where they’re usually depicted as being located for it to be showing up like in the art?
Given the debate occurring maybe they’ll provide an additional interchangeable set of gauntlets.
I'm not blaming Fabok at all. Hell, I'm not even upset with P1. This piece isn't going to ship until the summer of 2022 (that's if there's no delays). That's plenty of time for P1 to correct the issue. I'd just like someone from P1 address the issue and hopefully correct it.
They have now confirmed the fins will be there.
Oh, I know you weren't. I just put that to make it clear since sometimes people glance over what is written and misconstrue what is being said. I didn't want to start something when that wasn't the intention.

We've become so desensitized to price increases that this is 50% more than the same size statues released two or three years ago from Prime 1 and it doesn't get brought up at all

Honestly I only recently started look at statues after collecting Hot Toys for a few years. I know Prime 1 is a big name in the industry, and at least their pieces seem to hold their value if you can find them for sale. I would certainly be able to bring home more if they were under $1,000 shipped versus the $1,500 this will be when all said and done.
I’d like the entire Dark Knight Metal line, but to collect them all would be $10,000+ all said and done.
