I'm usually not one who cares about edition numbers, but having #1 does feel kind of good.

Two new shots:

I really love this piece, and it looks perfect on top of a Detolf.

Here's a brief summary of my thoughts on this excellent piece:-

Packaging: Can't fault it. It would have taken one hell of a beating to inflict any damage on the piece. I have nothing but praise for how it was packed. If I were to criticise anything, it would be the choice of courier - Yodel do have a habit of chucking things over garden fences, but I'm just nit-picking here, and in their defence this arrived safely and hadn't been mistreated in any way en route

The eagle itself is grand. It's a substantial beast, no getting around that, but it's scaled awesomely to be a display piece. There are no obvious flaws other than a small horizontal dent along part of the right hand side, but this looks deliberate. The paint app is excellent; the silver is uniform throughout, and while there are a few spots where the brush strokes take away from the effect of the weathering slightly, it's only from up close. From any kind of distance it looks amazing. Most importantly, it gets the wife seal of approval, so that's a big plus

The stand works brilliantly and is so unobtrusive it's barely noticeable. Top marks.

All in all I'd say it's a winner, and I'm sure once it's mounted on the wall it'll look even better.

The more I look at it, the more I like it

Here are a few pictures (if I've managed to work imageshack right...)

This looks amazing. I don't understand the people who are bashing this thing. Looks well worth the money. If only I had the money........

Looks damn good Yannick! What a super dio which can be used for so many figures!

Did anybody try to fix it higher on the wall in a darker corner with a pale light to get that 'Looking down over Gotham' look?

Couldn't afford it, but would love to own it someday; maybe when a fellow freak decides to part with it after a couple of years


With a lforigno long cape and specific lighting, it'll be awesome to see something like this too!

Explain more, you want it in a corner with the light shining up with a camera point down over head?

 

[agonistes86]

I won't be fixing it on the wall any time soon (or ever, because I really like the look on the Detolf, and it's more secure), but I'll probably take some moody pictures soon to try to get that feeling across of looking upon Gotham.
