XM Studios Batman - KNIGHT of the RISING SUN 1/4 Premium Statue

[Mr. Green]

I may have just changed my mind about NOT getting this
This is looking good, and I just so happen to have family in the Philippines.

So can anyone help me confirm the protocol...
At midnight Singapore time I can order this thru Simply Toys and just ship to the Philippines address?In turn they will ship to me.

You sure? Click Medusa from XM Studio and it stated,
"We are only allowed to ship this statue to a location in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and The Philippines."
And, "Customers with a shipping address outside these 5 countries will have their orders cancelled and deposit refunded without notification."

Good thing you have family in the Philippines.

Yeah, I would make the purchase from here and ship to the fam in the Philippines, then have them ship to me. The piece is already 700 USD before shipping, then shipping again. This would be a pricey collectible for me, but I'm hoping its rarity and its a "famous" XM piece [first] might make it worthy.

Man, that's a lot of armor

Really I star loving this

Too much RoboBatman for me. It would've been cooler just to have him as a samurai without the armor and robotic crap. I like the base though.

Yep, like capeless Batman wearing parts of samurai armor over his regular costume.

 

[marker2037]

Exactly. That would've been cooler.

XM is really doing a hell of a job on their bases for pretty much everything previewed this weekend. It really completes the whole display.

Holy moly, that's way more detailed than I imagined it would be. That armor is crazy and as usual, the base is stellar.

To me it doesn't look like a robot, it looks like they took Batman's modern armor (New 52, video games, Dar Knight movie type of style) and infused it with samurai stylings.

You can see the straps and buckles on different segments of the armor (around shoulders, ribs, upper thighs, etc) so it apparently is armor pieces over some type of body suit. Not too much different from actual samurai armor, it's just Batman-tized...even the movie look is just armor pieces over a body suit:

I think this mix of what is now thanks to the video games and movies the standard armored look for Batman with samurai sensibility was a much better decision than to just put standar sumurai armor over his body suit. This feels like a true Batman samurai...also reminds me of when I was a kid and there were all types of stylized Batman action figures to fit all types of situations Batman could be in.

I know why you have so few posts...you're clearly too busy doing this in your spare time!

Haha I try to be selective on what I get....this Batman is perfect to me. Love the Oriental theme look. Samurai + Batman = Dream come true The level of intricate detail that XM does plus their Paint apps are unreal. Then the base and all the switchouts...different heads, weapons...its just pure awesomeness

Think the armor is a bit too heavy. Maybe if they shed some, might look nicer

Mr. Green would like to see XM's version of DC's trinity. Bring on Superman and Wonder Woman.

I think this license is limited to the Batmanverse, might be wrong tho.

Yes it seems limited to Batmanverse but hopefully soon they can do the rest of DC Universe. I would love to see a XM Superman!
