Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF
I'm not sure how kants theory has anything to do with this. I'm not trying to come across as kurt, but isn't that theory in support of subjective perspective? Kant equates aesthetic appreciation and perspective with moral judgement. And then he further expl....meh whatever. It's a ******ing comic character statue board.
I received mine yesterday, had to step out for a bit and set it up last night.
This is one of the best statues Sideshow has ever made. I was there when Doom PF, Hulk PF and all that stuff came out. I was also there when the Sideshow Marvel diorama line was at it's peak. Having seen that era of Sideshow collecting I can sit here and tell you this thing has that level of magic once you set it up. A few things that set it off:
1. The base. Not only is it done very well, but it offers the potential to be repainted a darker shade if you buy an extra one of these. It would offer you an entirely different looking piece since it grabs a lot of the composition.
2. The belt. It adds a level of realism to the piece as it pops in that dark yellow to break up all the darkness in the outfit. It looks like it could really hold lots of gadgets. It hooks on like a real belt too at the front.
3. The cape. It's freaking massive but so damn detailed and well painted. We all have seen what DC Direct did with a cloth cape and I would have to say this is a better alternative that gives the piece a high end feeling.
If you like Batman and you collect statues you owe it to yourself to at least see this in person. You might want to bring your $450 with you because you will most likely use it. Ignore all that internet negativity and see it for yourself. On a side note, I can see Sideshow making a blue variant of this piece. They would be fools not to as they obviously spent a good deal of R&D coming up with the composition, pose and proper balance of this piece. Change the belt to a classic "small tube containers" set up instead of pouches, the yellow chest emblem and the paint color of the base to a darker shade and you are good to go.
Guys? Pack out? Yes? No?
