Kira there are plans for European collectors ?

Only problem is pricing. If they do this as stupid as XM, with higher prices buying in europe, than buying from everywhere else including vat and shipping (hey we all have internet, and can buy online even in africa) this is no necessity. If this will be reasonable: welcome to europe

Kira ,
Prime 1 as a company makes everything in house. No outsourcing ?

All I know the way I see it, that the amount of details, different textures and prints on the AK Batman are incomparable to any other statues out there. (Apart from the TF line of course.) I respect the fact that people love the Noel Batman, and if there was no AK version I'd probably ordered that one myself. I just feel that it's not being said enough how complex is the AK Batman, and to me is the look that I believe it can exist in real life. That is the guy I'd see on a rooftop and would quickly cr*p my pants. I think that is why you need to pay for the extra. Just my opinion.

I didn't want to derail the ask thread .
Maybe it's a combination of factors like the amazing detailing on the knight suit kept that version from getting additional portraits for the 899 price, while the simpler detail on the noel allowed for additional head sculpts.
You could also argue that while deathstroke (amazing piece) has the same armor details as the knight Batman, perhaps prime included the additional things to sell him as though it's incredible, it's not batman and may have needed a bit more to push it over the top.
Or maybe they just wanted to do a mini bust line for these and the easiest guy to start safely with is Batman.
What do you guys think?

I think it was explained that DC didn't release the materials to make an Unmasked head when the initial planning and execution of the AK Bats was approved.

Hi Kira!
Was wondering if theres any chance of Prime 1 getting the license for the Berserk manga.
Also, can someone confirms me Prime 1 will be making Final Fantasy VII pieces?
Cheers!
Victor

Possible, I don't recall. This was just for sake of discussion. It's clearly out now before Batman is shipped, so it could still be argued that it could have been included. They threw in the additional batarang after the fact.
Keep in mind this is all for discussion I'm not personally upset it's not included, just for a fun debate.

Why would you want to do that? They are not the same scale, and their dioramas vary widely in dimensions.

Guys I ve been thinking .Do u reckon prices will drop in the secondary market concerning P1 products?. I mean I tried to sell some SS statues ,just to save some money to get P1 statues, and I find it very difficult to the point that, I have to drop the prices for less that I paid initially for a statue. Is it because that many stuff coming out? My fear is if in the future u want to sell a P1 statue , u ll sell it at loss

At these prices there is always someone willing to sell at a loss before the statue breaks that invisible barrier of high demand/less supply.
