The price was pretty close to what I was expecting for this piece (possibly a tad higher?) But I also like this statue and character a lot more than Thanos. I will need to make sure it will fit in my display, 20+ inches deep could be a problem.

If he will fit and P1 doesn't release 3 predator statues within the next month I will probably buy this one.

I do not like the unmask portrait.. I would never leave it unmasked anyways so not much of a negative mark for me.
So that makes one maybe for Spidey! And I'll probably get him if I can order him locally. I don't know where I'm going to display him and Thanos but that doesn't matter. I'll work it out when they arrive.


Yeah, most unmasked portraits don't work on fully costumed heroes in action poses.

I've current got my Mark 46 from Iron Studios with his unmasked portrait, but that's because I just have too many other Iron Man figures, busts and statues who are fully helmeted.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I’m a big fan of Iron Spider. Problem is I don’t really collect movie statues. I also just ordered Batman Who Laughs and don’t want to overload my pre-orders. I may try and wait and get this locally. It is a nice statue.

Well if it's going to be any statue that stops you from ordering this one, I'm glad it's the Batman Who Laughs statue.

That's going to be in the runnng for statue of the year/s when it finally comes out imo.

Ughhh, was really considering this one after seeing it at the con, but that price... Was thinking around 600 max, but 800 is just too much for me :/

With the size and complexity, and especially given that they charged $800 USD for their Falcon and Mark 46, charging $600 was highly unlikely.

Not that the Mark 46 wasn't seriously overpriced!

Face sculpt Thanos wins for sure, but I like the more dynamic pose on the iron spider.. not sure that I like the extra part of the base on the bottom, would prefer the base to only be the rocks/building... im still tossing this $800 price tag back and forth.. asking my self if this is on the same level as the Thor I just POed for less money.

Damn! This is nice!

Totally would go for it if it was comic-based instead.

The unmasked portrait seems a bit off to me. In some pics it looks like a badly photoshopped head on the body
