Just finished assembling mine. Decided to go with one wing opened and the other closed. Love it!

This may be a dumb question, but iron studios and sideshow site says “includes art print by Ivan Reis”.

I took this to mean an actual art print but I received nothing extra. Am I just misinterpreting?

Congratulations to all who ordered and had the space for this grail!

Iron Studios is seriously killing it with this and the best Hulk ever made.

Two grails in a row! Who else can say the same?

OK OK, probably Prime 1 and XM but still, it's really an accomplishment.

Both of the picture sets I've seen not only show a great statue, but beautiful surroundings to display it in. The owners here are very fortunate and display excellent taste in decor. My hats off to them.

This is clearly way more statue then I can comfortably house at this point in time, and for the foreseeable future. Even those boxes look like they would be a challenge getting up a narrow staircase.
If I had any sense in my head I'd be cancelling this today.
That ain't gonna happen. Unless this shows up with some noticeable damage, there's just no way I'm gonna let my option on this go now.

If there is anything I regret it's that I didn't opt for the dual wings. Up till now, it seemed like that $300 would have been far better spent elsewhere. Now I realize having that second set of wings in reserve would have mentally kept this thing fresh for many years going forward. Even if I only got the chance to set them up like that for a few weeks every five years or so, knowing that change up was available to me would have always kept this exciting.
As magnificent as the closed set is, everything just naturally gets old and overly familiar. The difference between the two sets of wings has to be the most demonstrably massive change I've ever seen to a single core statue. It's like night and day versions of the same character.
I viewed that $300 as the cost of a whole new 1/6 statue from Tweeterhead or a whole HT figure with change back. What it actually represented was a whole new 1/3 statue.

I Still love the closed wings. But You guys that went all out did the right thing. No question in my mind now.
Ironically, the spot I'm eyeing for it now actually could have fit the open wings after all. C'est la vie.

Totally agree! I can't believe i forgot him, it's also one of my favorite statues, even though I am not particularly fan of the character!
