Posted 22 hrs. ago on their Facebook page:
And by the way, there is no Photoshop manipulation in these pictures. The statues look exactly the same in person.
The human skin version was painted with a special paint application process that makes it look more realistic. And this is why it is more expensive.
Here are some bare pictures, taken at the factory with a cellphone! No Photoshop, no background, no special lighting. Just the statue!!

Everyone likes what they like, I suppose, but is there really a market for this kind of statue? I can think of other statues with more "sex appeal," and to boot this particular piece isn't of a well known character or person. I could be wrong, but it just seems to me that of all the statues out in the marketplace, it's hard to believe that people will buy this one to add to their collection, or will start a collection because of this statue, or build a collection around this statue.
Bring back the Olympians and keep their designs simple and traditional (not a fan of Hades), and I'll probably bite.

There was a market for sideshows court of the dead, why not these. Looks pretty cool to me.

Now, Pre-Orders will be up soon, but we probably will not pre-order her through ARH Studios. We might have this piece available ONLY through retailers and not through ARH STUDIOS WEBSITE.
This I still have to confirm, but chances are that this will be the case.
The statue was sculpted by Arahom Radjah (After Ehren Bienert) and was painted by our factory in China based on the previous version painted by Arahom Radjah)
Let me know what you think in the comments below."

"Badder" is right
I am shocked people like them. They look like the cheap resin mermaid statues you get at knicknack shops.

I would have said potentially not but that first twin mermaid statue sold out fast and is thought of highly.
So apparently yes.
