Prime 1 Studio: Batgirl

[statuesrule]

The Prime 1 Studio announcement of Batgirl

[yipkusing]

Please multiple portraits and accessories.

[Toaster]

I hope the hair on the sculpt looks better than in the game; her hair looked wonky and unrealistic.

[Comicbookguy]

Wow prime 1 please make the face beautiful. That is the key for me to buy or pass. Same as harley. Well all female faces. Lol lately ss has been having so many issues With thier dc female faces. I have faith in prime 1.

[Wah]

this and harley are the 2 pieces i really want the most, besides the bats.

[gogo13]

I should send part of my paycheck to Prime1... Two Batman, ARK knight, Deathstroke,Bain,Harley and now Batgirl... so far...

[strife87]

Glad to see a teaser on this one, one of my more anticipated upcoming pieces.

[Finisher]

Looking good so far..

[acme1982]

I want to see more

[Wurmtongue]

I think batgirl or harley would look cool. And i think the mixed media of having harleys skirt being material is smart, but i couldnt ever buy a statue with clay-like hair. Imo it ruins the life of the rest of the statue. guess i'll stick to the bots, cant go wrong. But there has to be a way to give these statue a mixed media hair effect.

[ukshaun]

Color me impressed, very impressed.

[Comicbookguy]

I want to see a real pic of the proto for this. The pic is from the game and not the actual item. If prime 1 can make the face like that pic. Oh this will be a PO for sure. I wonder how the hair will come out? A unmasked version would be cool too :)

[Gyro Zeppeli]

Hope they make it 100% accurate if you know what I mean ;)

[yipkusing]

Hope this is just the unfinished 3D tease. Not digging the the straight pose :/

[Kira]

Hope this is just the unfinished 3D tease. Not digging the the straight pose :/

The teaser is only for the sculpt. The final pose will be reveal next year.

[yipkusing]

The teaser is only for the sculpt. The final pose will be reveal next year.

:buttrock: great news! I'm excited to see. Does it come with multiple portraits?

[Kira]

:buttrock: great news! I'm excited to see. Does it come with multiple portraits?

Yes ;)

[pacino]

I'm in!

[Shanesg]

This isn't one I would be interested in picking up, but it's looking really nice so far.

Is anyone actually planning on getting this whole line? Lol

[actionjackson83]

if I did get the whole line I may get rid of all my 1/4 scale statues just to fit them in the house lol.

[Remember Me?]

This isn't one I would be interested in picking up, but it's looking really nice so far.

Is anyone actually planning on getting this whole line? Lol

Not me...going to pick up a few only.

[Silverine]

This isn't one I would be interested in picking up, but it's looking really nice so far.

Is anyone actually planning on getting this whole line? Lol

for now I stick with the characters I really like, mabey completing the line abit more in future but that depends on the future market price.

[Wah]

This isn't one I would be interested in picking up, but it's looking really nice so far.

Is anyone actually planning on getting this whole line? Lol

i'm getting essentially all the heroes (but not all the batman variants), minus the villains.

..maybe deathstroke.

[chrisdeeds]

i'm getting essentially all the heroes (but not all the batman variants), minus the villains.

..maybe deathstroke.

I'm getting all of the villians and surrounding them around batman. I'm not interested in batgirl at this time.

[Shanesg]

So far I have AK and Batman on order and I'm definitely getting Deathstroke. Actually if I was only to have one, it would be Deathstroke. Besides that, I'm undecided. I'll likely get Red Hood. His design from AK was really nice.

[Wah]

oops. forgot to add i have arkham knight ordered as well.

[built2shred]

My theoretical plan is:

Batman Noel
Batgirl
Catwoman
Nightwing
Red Hood
Joker
Harley

Space is the biggest issue....

[yipkusing]

Getting all girls

[Silverine]

My theoretical plan is:

Batman Noel
Batgirl
Catwoman
Nightwing
Red Hood
Joker
Harley

Space is the biggest issue....
no Deathstroke in your planning? :(

[Comicbookguy]

The multiple portraits is most important for me to decide. Thanks prime1 for the options.

[built2shred]

no Deathstroke in your planning? :(

Aye Caramba !!!!!! I forgot about Deathstroke.... yeah he's on my list too..

[statuesrule]

New announcement

[Shoo]

New announcement

Not quite (http://www.statueforum.com/showpost.php?p=5156321&postcount=23). ;)

[Silverine]

Aye Caramba !!!!!! I forgot about Deathstroke.... yeah he's on my list too..

sorry for making your list bigger !!!
it's bad for the wallet

My list is:
HQ
catwoman
Batgirl
and Deathstroke

but thats alot of money already and with XM making gwen and more awesome stuff its hard too keep up :D

[Synzaic]

New announcement

Ya, that is a few weeks too late.

Looks like grumpy might have some new competition though

[Silverine]

I wonder if this one gets an unmasked portrait, what do you guys think? Hope so

[Comicbookguy]

I wonder if this one gets an unmasked portrait, what do you guys think? Hope so

This must or else.. Prime 1 please give us a unmasked head.

[strife87]

I'd like to think it would with the accessories being given to the other pieces coming out, but would it make sense with her pose I guess is my question, it made more sense with the knight batman and he didn't get one.

[Silverine]

I'd like to think it would with the accessories being given to the other pieces coming out, but would it make sense with her pose I guess is my question, it made more sense with the knight batman and he didn't get one.

Yea I know it does not make sense but it seems such a waste with her beautiful face thats all

I mean did you see the details of deathstroke unmasked imagine that detail with her face :drooling:
All I can say is I am happy harley does not have a mask in this game haha

[jpuli28]

I'd like to think it would with the accessories being given to the other pieces coming out, but would it make sense with her pose I guess is my question, it made more sense with the knight batman and he didn't get one.

Her pose hasn't been revealed...?

[built2shred]

A partially torn mask on Batgirl would look pretty hawt :)

[strife87]

Her pose hasn't been revealed...?

no, I'm just going off what i can see in the teaser and i believe she will have a museum pose to match the others in the line.

battle damage switch portrait would be sweet like built suggested.

[Titusak]

I saw something on facebook, no ?
Anyway, I think this one will be a killer with Harley.

[Silverine]

A partially torn mask on Batgirl would look pretty hawt :)

Very creative to get what we want!!! sir
me like

[risingstar]

Should look awesome!

[strife87]

Thinking about it, if it doesn't come with the batgirl statue, they may make an Oracle bust that could switch out....

[Comicbookguy]

Is she blue or black for the costume? I wonder if there will be a repaint on this? I will ask prime 1. Hate to buy this now and have a repaint pop up like the ss stuff.

[Silverine]

Thinking about it, if it doesn't come with the batgirl statue, they may make an Oracle bust that could switch out....

true, I wish it was possible for the AK but that said its a nice thing to do but for international buyers its a bit to much

[Silverine]

Is she blue or black for the costume? I wonder if there will be a repaint on this? I will ask prime 1. Hate to buy this now and have a repaint pop up like the ss stuff.

who knows after the AK but lets be honest I think they should focus on the characters and not variants :) I mean sideshow does the same and gets complaints you know + for a 900dollar statue variants really
so if I most guess black would be the best option but thats how I think about it

[strife87]

Is she blue or black for the costume? I wonder if there will be a repaint on this?

Should be the black and gold costume from the matter of family dlc for knight.

The way prime is doing variants, there may be a different color released at some point, but it would have to be in the game as I believe that is what their license covers.

[strife87]

true, I wish it was possible for the AK but that said its a nice thing to do but for international buyers its a bit to much

I can see that for sure, but I do like the concept of being able to interchange the bust and statue portraits, I think that could really work to make a larger percentage of buyers happy, granted it will cost more.

[statuesrule]

Teaser of Arkham Batgirl

[Mister Ski]

@ss-less bat-chaps?

[strife87]

Cool teaser, that's not the pose I was anticipating. I like the armor detailing.

[Comicbookguy]

Teaser of Arkham Batgirl

:itsb::itsb::itsb::itsb::itsb::itsb::itsb::smokin: Is this for real? Oh this is going to be better than deathstroke! Amazing!

No heels? I want heels prime 1 :praying:

[gagaliya]

resisted so far since i don't like video game batman, but this i have to get.

[Comicbookguy]

Is the cape fully sculpted?

[SONICobra]

amazing :eek:

[SuperJ300]

That looks good!

[strife87]

liking the pose. can't wait for more!

[decoyoctopus10]

Do they really 3D print these or was that just a rumor?

[SkyPirate82]

Looks like I'm going to have to have a clear-out to make room for this. A lot depends on how the head sculpt(s) turn out but, considering how good the Prime 1 Batman portraits are, I expect the finished piece to be another home run. Time to start saving....

[Matches Malone]

No heels? I want heels prime 1 :praying:

The boots are accurate to the game on which this is based iirc.

[stevebed]

Is the cape fully sculpted?

im guessing no

[HeromanPunch]

No heels? I want heels prime 1 :praying:

There are heels. Just not stripper heels lol

[jpuli28]

^ Theyre called "wedges" :dork:

[VS1976]

There are heels. Just not stripper heels lol

No stripper heels :(

[Gyro Zeppeli]

Really liking the attitude in that pose. She's going to look great

[Comicbookguy]

There are heels. Just not stripper heels lol

:thinking: But in the comics and the bishoujo has them.....

[strife87]

:thinking: But in the comics and the bishoujo has them.....
but that's not where this rendition is taken from.

[Wah]

i have the 1/4 ssc batgirl, and i have pretty good feeling this one will put that one to shame.

[COI]

What I'm really dying to see on this and Harley are the portraits.

[Wah]

What I'm really dying to see on this and Harley are the portraits.

exactly!

[actionjackson83]

Think I'll be selling my SS Batgirl EX now to get this instead lol but I guess i'll hold off until the portrait reveal. Might just sell all Batman related 1/4 scale lol to fund these lol.

[Wah]

Think I'll be selling my SS Batgirl EX now to get this instead lol but I guess i'll hold off until the portrait reveal. Might just sell all Batman related 1/4 scale lol to fund these lol.

i still love my ssc batgirl. i would never sell that piece. will get this too. its 2 completely different takes on batgirl, so keep both!

[strife87]

I'm really more excited to see the full reveal on batgirl with the production pictures coming out of the ak batman thread, I really think she is going to look stunning.

Now I'm curious what the exclusive is going to be.

[z928328]

where can I pre order this>

[testsubject25]

where can I pre order this>

Not up for preorder yet. I believe we will see the full reveal at Wonderfest in a few weeks, Feb 7th. Hope that helps.

[strife87]

Sideshow will probably carry them in the US when they go up for order, that may work depending on where you are located....

[DarkKnight]

You guys see the pose and presentation of batgirl? Face looks weird and to some an extend body is accurate except the butt i think but for face is not selling me
http://i1254.photobucket.com/albums/hh619/melinena1923/882D7641-CAEB-4040-B408-93790B4ED9F9.png.jpeg (http://s1254.photobucket.com/user/melinena1923/media/810B6DD2-04B7-45F9-B8A6-78C4294C24CF.png.jpeg.html)http://i1254.photobucket.com/albums/hh619/melinena1923/810B6DD2-04B7-45F9-B8A6-78C4294C24CF.png.jpeg

[gogo13]

Thanks for the Photo Darkknight... Batgirl on my list of wants but I have to see how it looks painted... It probably close to 1K .

I hope they have a swap out unmasked portrait....

[Silverine]

to be fair she is not close to be done, so I will leave out my judgement for now LOL

[DarkKnight]

No problem. Im also waiting to see how final comes out. At this point i dont like the face and wish the pose changed. Im passing on harley and others for batgirl hopefully i dont regret it

[DarkKnight]

to be fair she is not close to be done, so I will leave out my judgement for now LOL

Yeah thats why im saying i hope when the final is said and done it looks great. For prime 1 im sure they hit a home run

[COI]

I think the face itself looks good, but she needs to be facing the direction her left knee is pointing.

[DarkKnight]

[COI]

Again, it all looks great except for the direction her head is turned.

[DarkKnight]

Face looks chunky to me but maybe it looks that way because its not painted yet

[epitaph04]

Pose is perfect to me. Maybe we'll get a switchout sculpt looking to her left.

[Valkyrie]

Face looks fine and just like the game model, IMO. I reserve judgment until I see the finished product.

[Silverine]

No problem. Im also waiting to see how final comes out. At this point i dont like the face and wish the pose changed. Im passing on harley and others for batgirl hopefully i dont regret it

dont worry harley will be out there long enough, but she is my favorite so I cant pass on her haha

[Silverine]

Again, it all looks great except for the direction her head is turned.

agreed, I think its better if the head is the same way as the stone gargoyle

[actionjackson83]

everything looks good so far to me.

[SolidLiquidFox]

agreed, I think its better if the head is the same way as the stone gargoyle

You guys are correct

[strife87]

I like the way it's looking, and yeah I think the lack of paint is throwing of the portrait a bit.

[Wah]

pose looks good and details look good. the true test will be once its painted up. portrait does seem off a bit.

[Falkor]

Based on the gargoyle, it seems like she and Nightwing will bookend the heroes if you plan on buying them all. ;) Should make one incredible display!

[jadekite22]

I like the way it's looking, and yeah I think the lack of paint is throwing of the portrait a bit.

Right. This mask relies heavily on seeing the eyebrows to maintain the neutral expression. Without the paint to draw attention to them, your eye tricks you into thinking she has a Prince of Darkness brow-line.

https://isthatinthebible.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/the-devil-in-the-movie-legend.png?w=750&h=404

[strife87]

Lol, Yeah, I was looking at the jaw line as well by the ear, with no paint to break up the cheek and mask, it looks a bit off there to me as well.

[Comicbookguy]

I like the way it's looking, and yeah I think the lack of paint is throwing of the portrait a bit.

:iagree: the face is the only issue I hope they pull off. Besides I hope we also get multiple portraits. Is her feet looking too small? Wished she had heels. But oh well. Still looks great. Is the feet too short?

[strife87]

:iagree: the face is the only issue I hope they pull off. Besides I hope we also get multiple portraits. Is her feet looking too small? Wished she had heels. But oh well. Still looks great. Is the feet too short?

At first glance in the first shot they looked that way but look harder, she has that wedge heel on, her foot is on the diagonal so it's going to look a bit shorter, I think it's fine. Check out the other angles for a better look.

[Xaerius]

I think that the pose, base and body proportions all look pretty much perfect right now. I also really like the face so far and am hoping they give us an unmasked COH as well.

Really looks great...

[traylorc]

Looks fantastic...Prime 1 is on fire with this line.

[DarkKnight]

Hmmmm multiple portraits?? And switchouts?

http://i1254.photobucket.com/albums/hh619/melinena1923/2DB7CB1C-EB25-46B9-93E6-D3AFC247E604.png.jpeg (http://s1254.photobucket.com/user/melinena1923/media/2DB7CB1C-EB25-46B9-93E6-D3AFC247E604.png.jpeg.html)

[ambasah]

I will get this. But I do agree that she should be looking in the other direction.

[testsubject25]

Love it! Agree portrait needs to face left!

[nbr3bagshotrow]

As many who complain about SS Pirate Morgan poses I'm surprised to hear so many are happy with the pose. So what is it? You like the "one leg up" or don't like the "one leg up"?

[stevebed]

the quality of the statue is more important than the pose to me .. thats only my opinion though

[majestic1]

I like her design but the pose just seems a bit awkward and forced to me, it's like she's posing for the camera but can't quite decide which way to pose, doesn't seem as natural as the rest of the line-up.

https://scontent-cdg2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfl1/v/t1.0-9/12705485_1651439981788386_359162043251030876_n.jpg?oh=38d97ce2708a9b4a5cb8226f156d91a1&oe=57701555

[nbr3bagshotrow]

IMO, a poor pose. Can't see the gargoyle and Batgirls face at the same time. And if you turn it to see the gargoyle you can't see her face. If you turn it to an angle shot, you can't get full view of either the gargoyle or Batgirls face.

[SolidLiquidFox]

The catch here is that if you tweak it, you are right back into a Sideshow captain morgan pose.

[ukshaun]

I can't quite put my finger on it. Maybe best not to judge until painted.

In it's grey state, Batgirl looks:

1. Not happy in mouth area.

2. Her legs give the impression she's not as fit as she should be, and could loose some weight.

3. Her left hand, the way she is holding the Bat object, says 'i've have enough of being Batgirl.. time for a career change..'

[nbr3bagshotrow]

The catch here is that if you tweak it, you are right back into a Sideshow captain morgan pose.

Already is

[Gyro Zeppeli]

I really like the pose and I think everything will make more sense when colored.

I will say that my only issue is the direction she is looking. She should really be looking the same way her bent knee is pointing. That would turn the pose away from a somewhat weird "pose for the camera" look to a more "i'm on the hunt" look.

Also I wouldn't classify this as the same thing as a Sideshow pose. Just having a knee bent isn't enough to do it. It's the lack of energy that makes it a Sideshow pose. Sideshow poses have the character standing near bolt straight and then have a slightly bent knee and uneven base.

In this case her knee is bent a lot and it makes sense for the pose. Just look at Wonder Woman, Power Girl, Superman, etc... The way their leg is bent looks forced as though the sculptor did a generic museum pose and then changed it at the last second so it looked more "dynamic."

[DarkKnight]

I really wish her pose was different look how they did knightwing. Why couldnt they pose her the same way as the promotional picture/tease they did a while back also seems as her hair isnt quite enough as the game shows

http://i1254.photobucket.com/albums/hh619/melinena1923/F0736C3F-12C3-47CA-91E2-DBED7DFE4FCC.jpg (http://s1254.photobucket.com/user/melinena1923/media/F0736C3F-12C3-47CA-91E2-DBED7DFE4FCC.jpg.html)

BG is definetly on my watch list. I love what I have seen so far. I don't have a problem with the pose as most seem to. If she were looking in the same direction as her bent knee it would be more of a Captain Morgan pose. Maybe she sees something off to her right and that's why she is looking in that direction. Not an issue for me.

[SolidLiquidFox]

They played it well making this a themed/complimentary base with Nightwing. That will push a few people over the edge if the pose doesn't click on the final version.

[COI]

I'm not worried about this piece at all at this stage. For me, it's already 80-90% there, and with the inevitable tweaks, paint-up and different portraits, I'm sure the final product offered will be a winner.

Yup. Right now that's my plan. Nightwing and Batgirl will make a great looking pairing in the collection.

Exactly. Tweaks are inevitable. The piece will only get better from here.

[SolidLiquidFox]

I agree with COI. So far you can tell P1 has the right idea with art direction. I see what they were going for here and chances are they will pull it off.

This pose would have been better IMO

[Finisher]

I like her design but the pose just seems a bit awkward and forced to me, it's like she's posing for the camera but can't quite decide which way to pose, doesn't seem as natural as the rest of the line-up.

https://scontent-cdg2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfl1/v/t1.0-9/12705485_1651439981788386_359162043251030876_n.jpg?oh=38d97ce2708a9b4a5cb8226f156d91a1&oe=57701555

Thats poor for one of the most expensive companies out there. The master print was much better. Totally agree.

[Comicbookguy]

I hope we get a switch out portraits, if shes only looking downwards then we must display her way up high.

[Lionore]

The promotional art was much better,and fitting for Batgirl, this particular pose reminds of this:

This pose would have been better. I agree. I like the pose above more than Prime1 current pose. The only problem I see with that pose for a statue. It would be nice if Kira was present she could explain. :sos:

The pose above has her kneeling with her rear leg. It doesn't match the other batman characters in the series she would be much lower. If her rear leg was standing it would be block in the museum type pose. I do like pose in the artwork more than current batgirl pose.. They wanted us to see the full figure of Batgirl.. It needs some adjustments.. to be as great as the other Prime1 Batman Line.... Very nice sculpt... Prime1 on all The Batman Characters...Prime1 I think will adjust Batgirl to look great.

[Viper245]

Good points on the pose gogo.

It's worth saying again that this is not the final pose for Batgirl. It's essentially a WIP and it will be tweaked before the final reveal. I have confidence that the final pose will be a home run.

Hot pic! But anyways,
I like the current standing pose better than the one sitting down on the building top. It's better the way it is otherwise much of the curves and figure would be covered.

[strife87]

I agree, the crouch is cool looking but would really make it pretty small for a 1:3, I prefer the stand up pose to show off more of the sculpt.

:goodpost: My biggest fear after seeing the great prime 1 sculpts and qc which should be fine is the size of these being smaller than I expected. I've seen 1/3 before with hollywood collectibles compared to SS 1/4 statues and all I can say is if that is the size we are getting... it's very impressive and the presence is second to none. Really hope these prime 1 scales will live up to the hype.

Yup glad i passed on everything to save for this one. Love the attitude in the pose.

[Silverine]

Me like alot!!

[ukshaun]

She looks great, bar one aspect: blame it on the angle / paint / lighting, her chin area look too long and pointy.

[Silverine]

With these characters I really love this line :)
I think her face is good, I think its the angle and its normal

wonder if we get unmasked :)

[COI]

I'm still a little worried about the direction she's facing relative to her body position. Otherwise her face looks great, and you can already tell the detailing on the suit will be outstanding.

[Wah]

oh yeah! bring it on!

[Xaerius]

Exactly what I was thinking. I'll need to see more pictures but if that is the final head sculpt, I just saved a lot of money. Also really hoping that they include an unmasked portrait as well.

[epitaph04]

She's got a pretty big chin in the game too, so yeah. Kinda already knew what to expect

[Silverine]

so true, its how she looks and i think its not even her chin its more the design of the game cowl, the ingame picture is bellow the sculpt and 1 page back and you can clearly see the illusion.

[COI]

The game design has her with a big chin, but the way the cowl tucks underneath the chin makes it look bigger.
I think it looks the way it's supposed to.

Oh man, this is looking so amazing. This will definitely be a day one pre order for me. I have become a really big Batgirl fan over the last couple of years. I always liked the character, but she has climbed into one of the top spots on my favorites list these last couple of years. I think Lau's artwork had a lot to do with it as I absolutely LOVE the work he has done with Batgirl. His Batgirl covers are some of my favorite comic covers the last 10 years running. Then you had the amazing Kotobukiya Bishoujo (my single favorite Bishoujo released to date), Sideshow's amazing premium Format release, and Babs Tarr's Batgirl. She's definitely become one of my favorite DC characters over the last couple of years.

Can't wait to see finished pics of this!! Honestly, its just nice to finally see a company recognize the potential with the Batman Arkham line in regards to statues. Still don't understand how Sideshow let this line pretty much pass them by. Big time kudos to Prime 1!

[COI]

Sideshow probably let it pass because they're distributing these pieces and I don't think the Batman and Joker are selling as they expected, again because I think people are holding out for this line. I myself was all set to get the Arkham PFs until I saw these.

I can understand why they don't release statues now, given Prime 1 is now making statues for the line with Sideshow distributing, but I don't understand why they passed up on the series to begin with. Batman Arkham Asylum was released back in 2009. Arkham City was released in 2011. So Sideshow had PLENTY of time to produce statues for the Arkham line, LONG before Prime 1 even had a license for DC, yet they chose not too. If I remember correctly, Prime 1 got its DC license back around late 2014/early 2015, so thats basically almost 6 years from the release of Arkham Asylum and 4 years from the release of Arkham City. Again, more than enough time for Sideshow to jump in and pick up the series, yet again they chose not to.

A HUGE missed opportunity in my book for Sideshow as the Arkham line has some of the best designs for DC characters I have seen to date. I am just thankful someone out there finally recognized it, but I still view it as a HUGE missed opportunity for Sideshow. I think a lot of people would have preferred 1:4 over 1:3, plus the price difference that comes with that.

i still love my ssc batgirl. i would never sell that piece. will get this too. its 2 completely different takes on batgirl, so keep both!

Couldn't agree more. I will definitely be keeping my Sideshow Batgirl. That was one of my favorite pieces from 2015!

Sideshow got the DC license in 2011. If I recall correctly it was an SDCC announcement. The first piece (Joker) didn't hit until late summer/early fall 2012. Considering that they had to get the comic line off the ground, they realistically didn't have time to jump on the Arkham stuff any earlier.

If they had the license 2 years earlier, or if Prime 1 got their license 2 years later, I'd agree with you, but the timing just didn't work out and I don't blame SS for dropping the line under the circumstances. They're still the only ones doing 1/4 scale comic stuff, so they have plenty to do. Not to say I wouldn't have loved to see PFs for this line, and I agree there.

I disagree. They may not have been able to get it going right away, but they easily could have started an Arkham line by early to mid 2014. Its not like you have to design a bunch of pieces at once. All they would have had to do is design a single Arkham statue by mid 2014, to start things off, and from there release 1-2 pieces a year starting in 2015. That would have been perfectly feasible for Sideshow if they were truly interested in the Arkham line.

Hell, we have seen 4 Catwoman statues in the last 2 years alone. If Sideshow can dedicate that much time and manpower to producing 4 statues from a single character....well, then they clearly could have gotten things rolling on an Arkham line by mid 2014, late 2014 at the very latest. IMO, the reason why Sideshow didn't produce an Arkham line isn't because they didn't have the time or resources, its because they just didn't have any serious interest in the line itself. And the fact that they were the only one doing 1:4 scale comic stuff doesn't change anything in my book. The Arkham line is absolutely filled with brilliant character designs and Sideshow not recognizing the potential in that line is a failure on Sideshow's part, at least in my opinion. Again, IMO, its just a huge missed opportunity as I think an Arkham line would have been hugely popular for Sideshow.

One thing is for sure and that is that Prime 1 is certainly happy that Sideshow passed on Arkham as Prime 1 is going to do very well with this line. At the end of the day, I am just happy that someone out there finally recognized the potential in the Arkham line.

i couldn't agree more. just love the entire aesthetics for the universe they created. everything about it hits all the right geek buttons for me.

Yeah, you really have to give kudo's to all of the design people involved with the characters. They really knocked it out of the park! While I would love to own the entire Arkham line, its really the Arkham City versions of Catwoman and Mr Freeze that I want the most. The design of those 2 characters in particular are the best I have seen to date. Just brilliant all the way around!!

I almost wonder if it came down to fees/royalties with it being more profitable for SSC to go with their in house designs versus having to pay Rocksteady for what they came up with.

[SolidLiquidFox]

strong possibility

[OrangeCrush]

I almost wonder if it came down to fees/royalties with it being more profitable for SSC to go with their in house designs versus having to pay Rocksteady for what they came up with.

Personally, I just don't believe that to be the case at all. First off, game companies make the vast majority of thier income from the sales of the games themselves so most game companies would jump at the opportunity to make additional money via markets like collectables, statues etc., especially when it requires no additional work on thier end. The designs for Arkham's characters were already finished. So such a deal would basically have given them more money for work that was already done.

Not to mention, very few games have characters that are popular enough to bring into the high end statue market. So when a deal like this comes around for game studios, especially a deal like Arkham which would have encompassed such a large roster of characters....well, it would be incredibly stupid for Rocksteady to squash such a deal by having royalties or fee's that were too high. At the end of the day, some money is a whole lot better than no money at all. It just doesn't make any business sense especially considering Sideshow would have been the only high end statue company interested in the line at that point in time. Its not like Rocksteady had a large list of competing companies. Prime 1 wasn't even on the radar at that point as they had't even acquired thier DC license yet.

The bottom line is that the VAST majority of games that are brought to market have very little potential in regards to the high end statue market, so when a large deal comes around (like the Sideshow deal would have been had they seriously tried to acquire the rights to the Arkham line of characters)....well, most game companies would jump at such an offer. Rocksteady is a successful studio, but there are no Rockstar. Such a deal, even with very reasonable royalty fee's, could have given Rocksteady a significant amount of money and again it would have required no additional work from rocksteady at all. All of the work was already done.

And just for arguments sake, lets say that Rocksteady did have higher than normal royalty fee's, Sideshow could have simple come out and explained to its customer base that the reason the statues were priced higher than normal was due to high er royalty fee's. Just look at the price increases we have seen over the last couple of years. We went from roughly $350 all the way up to $450-$500 and sure enough statues are still selling extremely well. So even if Sideshow had to price an Arkham line a bit higher than normal back then, I have absolutely zero doubt that people would have still purchased a lot of them.
Don't get me wrong, its all speculation at this point so your entitled to believe that the reason Sideshow didn't create an Arkham line was due to higher royalty fee's. I just disagree with that line of thinking. At least for me, the only thing that really makes any sense is that Sideshow just didn't have the interest to seriously pursue the Arkham line.

Sideshow has the comics license at 1/4 scale. They have the ability to make stuff like the recently shown Bane PF but choose to play around instead of making more statues in that same caliber. They are stepping up their game because of the competition.

Comics version is usually more timeless than a video game version even more so when it's executed well. Sideshow has nothing to worry about in regards to missing out on a video game Arkham license or whatnot. They are their own worst enemy and not P1 or an inability to get licenses.

I don't think so...I think her face shape fits her body size. She seems like a pretty thin lady with an egg shaped / oval-like face.

The paint app on her face is so damn lifelike it's uncanny. :eek:

Where the heck are more pics of Nightwing? That IMO looks the most exciting of all the 1/3 Batman related pieces so far along with Deathstroke.

Nightwing is facing the opposite way and nobody likes that side of the table it seems...

never been a fan of this pose for her, but i do love the statue otherwise. i absolutely love this design of batgirl! this is pretty much ordered.

Once it was a promising statue...

She actually looks awesome with the Noel because they both have step-up bases and are on the same plane.

And I'll say it again, that Noel is a total sleeper.

Noel was ----ing badass. I was really having second thoughts about that one and seeing him in-person definitely made me glad I preordered.

To me he stands out from what's on that table. If I were seeing them for the first time, Noel and Miller Bats would be the most eye-catching to me.

I FIRST.. but then...

hope this explanation makes this sentence more clear, OMG. So what?

Anyway no good statue in my eyes. And as always: just my personal view on it.

No good pose, boring paints, many things what I just dont like. But I liked the first pics of her posted quite some time ago... (just check the first page of this thread).

I think this looks fantastic. I am just too big of a Batgirl fan to pass this up. This will go great with some of those 1:3 Batman's coming down the pipeline. The Noel and Miller versions in particular would look amazing when paired with this. I just love these kinds of architectural bases.

Now I just need 1:3 Supergirl and Batwoman statues to go along with them and I'll be a very happy man indeed!

[Comicbookguy]

Face looks a little narrow and almost anime for my taste but everything else looks great.

Like everything except her face. Will we get coh's?

Hope so. Still think I'm gonna get, but if it had a switch out chest piece with nipples, I would definitely get it.

[Canadaguy705]

Does she come with a switch out Crossing guard stop sign?

[Comicbookguy]

If this has no COH I will just wait for the blue repaint because it may have a better COH. Chances are very good it will happen!

Agreed, just afraid to take the plunge into collecting 1/3 scale statues. I see the Batman statue is 34 inches tall.. 54 pounds?!! Just wondering how many inches tall the Batgirl Statue is? Can tell its shorter than Batman statue in the videos.
I guess im trying not to set myself up for disappointment if its 34 inches.. Not sure my Besta shelves will be able to hold her.
Anyone found any info yet on dimensions?

[Wurmtongue]

I can't believe you guys buy these high end statue just to stick them in cheap ikea junk.

[epitaph04]

So? I have one on top of my printer.

What would you recommend for displaying? Ive just started collecting as of two months ago. All ears for advice.

Display them how and where you want. Just be careful with sunlight. Everyone has there opinions. If you don't care of mind dusting your pieces than buy an open cabinet that is strong enough to hold the weight of the statues.
For the price of IKEA units I'm sure you can find a good craftsman to custom build you a display case/cabinet.

Pulaski Chocolate Cherry Sliding Curios. I have 8 and they are perfect.

Does her head go all the way to top of her crash hat ;D
Seriously though, Batgirl looks like a well painted, constructed statue. For me, her face fails to tick boxes.

[epitaph04]

Ever heard of lens distortion?

[ukshaun]

Yes. Most of the image above looks fine.

Thanks. Ikea isn't your only resource, and definitely not the best. Just checked my local craigslist and there is a Pulaski curio display cabinet for $250. Awesome looking for PFs.

I never quite understood this complaint. Is it because of her facial expression (or rather, lack thereof)? Otherwise, it's a damn perfect representation of her face in-game.

Keep in mind, guys, that I took the above picture 3 months ago at SDCC. Since then, we've seen a modified, or maybe additional, portrait where she has more of a smirk...

The alternate smirk head and hand on hip has really brought me around on this piece. I like this display significantly more than the serious/"long" face wielding the massive grapple gun.

[supermetroid]

Yeah that looks much better imo the original head looks like she's bored

Much better. She looks alive rather than bored.

[strife87]

I agree about the face. These two pics above look nice. Prefer the hand on hip pose.

[OrangeCrush]

This is the one Prime 1 piece I am dying to get my hands on. Do we have any idea when this might finally go up for pre order?

lol jk ;)

[COI]

Gotta disagree about the smirk/hand on hip combo. That's essentially a repeat of the Batgirl PF. Not that that's a bad thing, but if I'm gonna buy a second Batgirl, I need a different pose. The grapple gun I like, but I still say here head should be facing to her left, over her bent knee, this way it looks like she's about to find a place to launch that grappling hook, or it looks like she's watching some event unfold in the distance and is about to swoop down.

Again, maybe it's just me, but I want to see more female pieces in stoic, serious, or even angered action poses. I want to see emotions beyond "I have a pretty smile" or "glassy-eyed, staring off in the distance - but still pretty - and devoid of emotion".

Was her jaw that long in the video game?

In the game her Face/Jaw line isn't that long.

Exactly!!! I want more emotion...instead of having to look so damn pretty.

[DRAGONTHEBOMB]

I really like the sassy look

[epitaph04]

I love this. I'm fine with any pose as long as it's good. This with robin and arkham bats will look fantastic.
