Prime 1 Studio - Batman: Akham Knight - Batman Statue

[sarakawa]

Oh well, I was told I would get early shipping and it didn't happen...so much for that. Also, I get the nonrefundable deposit but if there is a waitlist, what's the harm in letting someone move that NRD to another order? Sideshow still gets my money and someone else's (when their WL converts).

There seems to be 2 Threads for this Statue.Both have the same Prime 1 Studio-Batman:Arkham Knight-

This Thread is -Batman Statue and the other is -Arkham Knight Statue.

Are they different or was one originally for the 1/3 Busts?

There are two statues. Batman (Arkham Knight game version) and The Arkham Knight himself (from the Arkham Knight game). Two totally different characters. I can see it may be a bit confusing.

Awesome pics.

The box is huge though. I don't think it'll fit in my car lol:

So, those who have Arkham Knight Batman in hand, what are your thoughts? Although I chose Noel over the AK version, I'd love to hear your thoughts on it because it's currently the best indicator of the quality we are likely to receive on these pieces. The pictures I've seen so far look amazing and there doesn't appear to be any drop-off from the prototype.

It's a absolute beast . Prime 1 delivered completely . Paint apps are amazing .

Sounds like compromise to me

Thanks dude, that's awesome! I've got three pieces on order from the Arkham line (Noel, Deathstroke, and Harley), so your pics and video have done a great deal to put to rest any doubts (not that I had any) about Prime 1 delivering. Not to start a flame war or anything, but I was debating about picking up XM's Darkness but am now leaning towards just getting another Prime 1 piece for much much less.

I can breathe a huge breath of fresh air as well man..having 5 of these beasts on PO. Bad Horse, it doesn't get more difficult than chosing between these or XMs Darkness. I also have Darkness on PO along with GR, and I wouldn't let either of those mammoths go - no way no how
Must find a way to keep them all I tell you!


My night will consist of downing a few brews while watching Chad Mans HD video on bats.
Cheers!

Wow, he looks better in the pics here than in the pics on Sideshow's site imo.

I almost took the plunge on this one a couple weeks ago but decided against it. Now I am reconsidering.

 

[sarakawa]

damn these early pics look good. Can't wait...

Yeah this thing is a beast...only had a hard time properly displaying him since it's such a large piece. Light wasn't hitting him quite right.

What are your thoughts on AK bats, spliff?

 

[hockeyflow33]

You guys who bring your statues outside are nuts haha

Yeah I was pretty surprised at how big he was myself. He's got one helluva shelf presence. It's actually pretty badass. Like really badass. It is not a night and day difference but the quality is noticeably superior to SS. I don't think it's hollow either since batman himself is really hefty, I'd even say he weights as much as LSF wolverine. Didn't bother with the cape but that was an awesome surprise too because the rods in the cape are stiff as hell so it can be posed all badass. Also the paint apps for his skin put everyone else to shame. Looks even better than HT apps there. Pretty much poops all over most pieces SS has put it out in recent times IMO. It's not perfect as there's some spots where it looks like they got lazy with the brush and it's still over priced but at least with Prime 1 they're giving us super nice quality. Really impressed with them.
