This is the first time I have seen her outside of the digital prototype they used for the solicitation. She loos great and I like the choice to carry the colours to her lips as well.

Really digging this line; brought home the Riddler a day or two ago and he is a gem. Great sculpt, decent paint application and an interesting pose. I know some of my enthusiasm stems from finally being able to have a "Riddler" statue in my collection despite collecting Batman pieces since the 90's.

Saw Riddler at my LCS today & congrats, he looks awesome! Selina won't arrive until the first week of February here.

My only concern is her whip, hope it'll be made of durable plastic (if it's ceramic it may snap in transit) unless they package it really well inside.

Also wish the series doesn't end with Armored Batman. It'll be great to get Poison Ivy, Talia al Ghul & the others in statue form.

Likewise, saw some reviews & i'm tempted to get all of them (only own Harley at the moment). However, Kotobukiya are releasing more awesome pieces next year so the blokes will have to wait haha. Definitely getting this AC Catwoman though!

One thing to consider is that Koto statues will be smaller than these. But given how much they push the ArtFX+ line, they might wind up covering a lot more characters in the end.

That's true, then it depends what the buyer likes most (& their budget) the DCC monochrome scheme or Koto coloured metallic paint finish

The detail on the DC ArtFX+ line is not all that great IMO.. They have made a big improvement on their Marvel line of ArtFX+ though.

One thing to think about also is the DC Arkham statues will be around for a long time, so there's no rush in buying them. If you wait long enough you can usually get them for like 30%-50% off during one of DC's statue sales when they try to get rid of inventory.

I hope the re-release this entire line with statues painted in full color. This black and grey with hint of color are not doing these sculpts justice.

I would have considered Bats, Joker, Harley and Cats if they were all full color.
