Confirmed the yellow bat emblem swaps out with the black emblem. Just saw it at Wonderfest.

Good lord. Unreal.

Well, I may not need the Hush statue anymore, considering this statue basically comes with the same costume.

That is crazy i will pre order this guy to go with my hush sups.

This had my jaw dropping. I know it's going to be $1k easily but this is the rare time I could justify it. Frank Miller's work back in the '80s was all superior to most super hero work before or since due to how gritty it was, but this was his apex.

I mean I love this piece! My only question is how big exactly do people estimate it will be (width and height)? You basically have to buy a table or case for this piece alone from what I can in photos.

Also, I have an XM Boba Fett which is a massive piece. In relation to that, how much bigger do people think this may be?

Well I have the DKR Black piece and while yes it’s big, I really don’t think a lot of these 1/3 statues are the “Oh my God these things are so horribly gigantic” pieces that they’re sometimes made out to be. They’re big....yes. But if you’re someone who is in this hobby with 1/4 statues, you can find a way to have some 1/3 as well. I’m not saying it’s easy to have 10 of them or whatever, but I’ve never thought the 1/3 statues are as much of a challenge as what they’re made out to be sometimes.

For this one in particular, the base looks like it’s going to be fairly deep. I am going to GUESS you’ll need to allocate around 30” in height, 18” or so in length, and probably close to the same in depth.

Understand, those are total guesses just based off looking at it and the DKR Black version.

I'd be happy with those guesstimates! I fear it may be even deeper but as with the Hush Supes this I'll get it either way, just too good to pass up.

We need someone with measuring tape at the comic con =)

I don't think it will be much longer before it goes on PO. Might even be this week.

Can't wait to see the other portrait assuming there is one.

 

[mva5580]

It would be a surprise if there wasn't at least 1 extra head. Prime 1 doesn't tend to skimp on their Batman statues.

Bring it on P1

Thanks for the estimates, that helps . I also agree, if you own a 1/4 piece 1/3 is bigger but not a huge leap. I might have to sell off the handful of SW mini busts I own and a couple 1/6 pieces as well to refocus the collection and get some extra cash! I just can't pass on this piece, no way.

on FB P1 said they are waiting for final approval but expect this to go up for PO this year.

Goodness GRACIOUS that thing is beautiful! What a great statue!

Would this look nice next to the Hush Superman vs the Hush Batman? Don't really know if I want 2 Batman statues so trying to decide on one, would love to see this guy next to him. Both are great, even the Origins which I was originally going to get to go with Deathstroke, Bane, Joker, and Freeze.
