Oh what the hell, pulled the trigger on this. The unmasked face just looks incredible.

Didn't Sideshow get the specs of the bust wrong? They state 25" high. I think this is 25 centimeters, actually. Would match 1/3 scale, anyway.

It's a bit small but I might give it a try to preview Prime 1's work before jumping on bigger pieces.
 
Eh, I'm on the fence. The only head I really want is the unmasked. I'm not sure I want to throw down money just for that. These should be around for a while so I'm not gonna rush it...

You could almost kind of part it out and sell the other 2 heads and keep the BW head.
 
25.8 Cm

Yes. On Prime1's site it is 25.8 cm. Sideshow should be updating.
 
I like it and it seems like a good deal but it's like the battle damaged head isn't different enough for it to matter and the angry face head doesn't go with the pose really. The unmasked head is sick though. Probably end up ordering it eventually. Since nothing else is affordable anymore ha.
 
I'm really on the fence with the extra heads and the bust. I really want the unmasked head. But the other two not so much. The battle damaged head isn't damaged enough. I think if you put the battle damaged head next to the regular head a lot of people wont even really see the difference until it's pointed out to them. The angry head is ok but i don't know if i love it. So i'd basically be buying it just for the unmasked head and the bust. Not sure if it's worth $230 plus shipping for that. Plus the fact that i still really feel like we should have gotten the unmasked head included with the statue. Almost all the other statues in this line are coming with at least 2 heads. DeathStroke comes with 2 heads. Batman Noel comes with 3 heads, Harley Quinn is coming with 3 heads. All are the same price as this batman so why are we only getting one head.
 
I ordered just for the display and the unmasked portrait. I like the idea of doing this bust series. It adds extra life to the statue, but only at the consumers choice.

I agree. Just seems like a blatant money grab. I like the unmasked head. The battle damaged has a bruise and the angry has a different mouth. Not worth the price to me. And since you can only display 1 head at a time (2 with the bust) it's also less worth it. I'm not the kind of guy to swap out the heads every few days. I stick with whichever head I like best and even the unmasked head I probably wouldn't display that often.

Smart business move though. They turned a $900 statue into an $1130 statue, fully equipped. $230 is half the price of a PF. I'd rather put that $230 towards another Prime 1 statue or a PF. But that's me!
 
At least they realized the mistake they made. So now all statues are going to come with multiple portraits instead of just one

True. Unless you can purchase an additional 3 Harley portraits as well haha.
