Prime 1 Studio’s Batman: The Dark Knight Returns Bust (Blue Version) SDCC Exclusive

[Phoenixblazes]

Oh man I thought this had to be picked up at SDCC. Didn't know there was an option to ship it ?

And I was able to get it shipped, after going on the waitlist.

 

[Phoenixblazes]

Oddly enough DHL says I should get mine on Monday!

For some reason I doubt it.

It'll be sort of weird if I did get mine on Monday whereas you receive yours on Wednesday, given that you're located only two states away, whereas I'm located in another hemisphere on a different continent.

Just got this piece in a few hours ago, and I must say I was surprised by its size. The headsculpts themselves feel twice the volume of the Batman Arkham Knight headsculpts. I had thought the two bust sets released would be of similar size...boy was I wrong.

Can't wait until I get the full 1/3 statue in hand.

And this has got to be the fastest I've ever received a piece direct from Sideshow.

Did they fly yours down special on the frikin' Concord? Dang.

possibly so.

I believe it shipped out around 3pm Friday US time (which was 7am Saturday here in Sydney), and arrived here in Sydney 5pm Monday.

Have you received yours yet?

 

[Darth Madden]

Nope, still scheduled for Wednesday.

Well Sideshow did charge me $114 USD for the DHL courier that they chose to use. But truthfully that wasn't so bad, given that the last two items being 1/4 Armored Bats cost me $180 USD, and the Batarang replica cost me $40 USD in shipping. So for the amount they're charging I guess the only positive is that it's quite fast.

Just a few pics comparing the two Batman busts that they've released so far.

It's finally officially off of Waitlist on Sideshow.

With the low stock remaining warning.

So if you're thinking on getting this, buy it now.

I was going to get one because I have $100 in rewards but it won't let me use them.

Oh well.

That's weird. Try calling or emailing them about it.

Looks good Phoenixblazes, does the blue really look that dark? Thought it would be more blue, looks more like charcoal, maybe would not look weird if the cape and head can be placed on the full size Batman (with black gloves and trunks)

Thanks for the pics and congrats, Phoenixblazes! And WOW! Those pics put the size into perspective. The full statue is gonna be huge!

Truthfully I really didn't notice.

It does look blue in person.

But I'll check when I get home, as I don't remember ever thinking it looked charcoal.

Though I didn't have the best lighting on those photos.

Very very awesome

Oh well.

Same thing happened to me, but I pulled the trigger anyway. I'm supposed to be getting the full statue from a friend (long story,) but if that doesn't happen, this will be my consolation.
