Just got invoiced by Diamond for this. Shipping only 3 weeks past original target date.

Only one of the series I ordered, so I don't know if any of the others are shipping this week as well.

Are the production pieces really this well-painted or are these pre-prod samples you received or similar?

I'd be nice to see you post some ALIEN

Sorry no pics, my camera is broken, but
I recommend the Female Templar.
Medium size, very nice & elegant statue is my opinion.
Painting has the usual Weta quality, perfect IMO, very close to WETA website prototype.
I bought from TFAW.com and received on monday in mint condition.

Medium? What reference standard are you using?

The figure, exclusive of the base, is about 12" tall. That's 1:6 scale; hardly what would be considered medium. Medium statues are generally 1:9 scale (8" tall).

I apologize for my subjective judgment about female templar size (beatiful statue)

Because I have many Sideshow PF, Predator PF, Cap America PF,.... etc,
so, in comparison with my current statues is medium size.

No apology needed!

I thought about it after I posted, and kinda suspected that may have been the case.

If you're approaching from the opposite perspective (1:8 scale like Bowen, DST. or DC Direct), Hellgate statues are considered large, on scale with Moore and HH.

Received mine, but it has to go back as it came with a black scuff/scratch mark on her face and the monster had been broken and re-glued in two spots. Will cost me extra shipping. Real nice...

On a sidenote, the statue looks great and i especially love the freckle work on her forehead. More makers should apply things like that to their statues as it brings more realism to the piece.

Hey GentleM, I just ordered the Male and Female Templar statues today! I should get them by Friday! Will post pics once I receive it! These impressed me so much from what I saw at the SDCC, I had to get these two immediately. I might also get the other two but at a much later date. I want to see how these two are since they were my favorites of the Hellgate statues.

These are so impressive, quality wise these compete with the best there are on the market
But the character designs are too busy and tacky
and honestly who cares about this game, its not even out yet

I orderd the female templar I think thats were it ends for me in this line

waiting for the Day Weta gets a good liscense *king kong was there only good one IMO
theyve already done superman (which are amazing in quality but boring)
Hopefully they will do The dark knight That would put them on the map like never before
