I will need to pick this one up as I'm going to be getting Catwoman and Ivy.

Same way man. I was thinking of getting one off eBay but I just dont know if that is a replica or if its legit. Also the ones that are selling them are going for the price of 2 Prime 1 statues. Ouch.

Their Batgirl and Poison Ivy really make me want to collect this line but I would need Batman in order to do that.

You’re better off joining a Facebook group looking for this. EBay prices are ludicrous.

I’m surprised there isn’t a more active marketplace for buying and selling here on the boards. I also collect Gold and Silver Age comics, and the CGC boards are easily the best place to buy and sell.

I'm going to part with mine soon, I'm based on the UK and am happy to send anywhere!

Pretty much anywhere is better than EBay. Facebook groups are the best for statues. But yes, very little BSt on this board.

Because it's not much of a sellers market right now.

I get your point, but people are still selling to make room for new statues. Why not sell in a commission-free environment to people we interact with on a daily basis rather than total strangers? For example, I’ve sold two statues in the last month on the freaks boards and they were both very positive transactions.

On the CGC boards, if I cheated someone on a deal, I’d be slammed on the boards. It’s a great motivator for everyone buying and selling to do so ethically. It creates an environment of trust where sellers can maximize their return and buyers get exactly what they paid for. Everybody wins.

I'm all for that, but unfortunately my fellow collector brothers & sisters would still take turns prison raping me with lowball pricing and shipping offers.

I just got this magnificent piece in today, and I'm absolutely blown away. It's huge, gorgeous, stylish, and superbly detailed. It's essentially 3+ Batman statues in one - Samurai Batman, normal Batman and Batman Beyond and each of these three versions offers many, many different switch out choices. I'm so very happy I picked this up to go with my upcoming Poison Ivy and Catwoman.
