My second box just arrived so I'll unbox it over the weekend and hopefully can upload some pics.

I do wonder though about why Secret Compass was able to get this statue out faster than Sideshow did. I wasn't expecting delivery this quick from them considering how late I ordered it

No videos BDogg but I did take some pictures. First and foremost, this guy is HUGE! The base feels really solid and the colors are much better than I expected. I had to build a special table to hold him and will finish the cabinet down the road.

Amazing presence! The statue is so big it's hard to get the entire thing in the camera pics. Lol ,....

Looks good, I suspect it may be one of those pieces that doesn't photo so well due to the skin tones and lack of obvious contrast. Looking forward to receiving mine... would you say it's worth the price tag?

Yes, that's true and to be perfectly honest, there are different tones of gray on there and Prime 1 did utilize various shades of that color to really bring out the details. This statue has so much presence and he's the centerpiece of my room so the minute you walk in, he grabs your attention and draws you towards him. The details of every portruding bones are amazing!

Be careful when you assemble your statue when you get him because connecting the torso to the leg section was very tricky. The metal peg and keyhole has to be in a perfect angle or else it won't slide down. My buddy and I tried several times until we got it. It'll help if you have a spotter to guide you as you're putting it together.

HE'S WORTH EVERY PENNY! I just can't stop looking at him!

Awesome and thanks for the feedback on this piece! I'm excited for mine! Any chance of showing a pic of that Superman PF next to him?

Does it look as nice as some of the other 1/2 scale pieces?
