Prime 1 Studio Grim Knight 1/3 Scale
I posted a video about this on my channel last night. This has not been officially revealed by P1 yet, but some hints were dropped on Facebook, and after a bit of digging, I received confirmation.
The proto has been printed, painted, and is ready to be revealed to the world. The hold-up? DC hasn’t approved it yet.
Part of me wonders if the increase in mass shootings and talk of gun control legislation has them wondering if this is the wrong time for perhaps their biggest profile character to be shown as a gun-toting killer of criminals. But heck, they publish the comics, right?
Let’s hope we get a reveal soon.

Ok.....I’m going to be cool about this. Even though this is pretty much a combo of two of my three favorite characters and has the potential to be THE statue of statues.....I’m going to be cool.

That's 1 Batman I definitely wouldn't buy and while I was going to say I'm a little surprised at how "all in" they are on these off shoot Batman's, I guess I shouldn't be. It's Prime 1 lol. They do love them some Batman.
That Red Death has me a bit interested though. I guess I can just have all of my "characters" through Batman variations lol. I'm interested in a Joker.....just get a Joker Dragon. I'm interested in a Flash.....just get him and Batman merged together. What a world.

Honestly I don’t see why that would really make a difference. Maybe it was Disney. But from the news, it’s something that unfortunately occurs fairly often, and nothing in the discussion seems to ever change as it’s always the same old sound bites on both sides of the debate, that it never progresses.
It’s funny, I always hear US government politicians both pointing to how our Australia gun laws both work and don’t work dependant on which party they’re from. Though I doubt our laws would ever pass in the US, as it’s a totally different ‘gun’ culture, especially now with an entire generation or two barely being exposed to guns except via various forms of media.
But as long as this statue looks great, it’ll get released eventually.

Well as H said this is basically a combination of two of my favorite characters but mainly i think the concept of alternate universes and what would happen to someone if "this happened instead of that" fascinating. Thats pretty much what my 1/3 scale display turned into, the different batmans of the multiverse

Yeah I think this particular story is quite interesting, because it only resulted from one small change, that lead to a domino effect on Bruce’s life.

makes me really sad they aren't able to give Spiderman this kind of attention. I know they would if they could.

I’m all for other characters getting made, truth is though, Batman sells. There’s a reason for that. They did make Swamp-Thing and Deadman though and now they’re doing Deadshot and Katana, all characters that I don’t hear many fellas asking for. So there’s hope for Spidey and Flash fans.
