Looks promising, might get this if it's good. Need a Ra's al Ghul in this samurai line though.

Question

Why is almost everything from XM 'samurai style'. Is this to save money on licensing costs?

I would expect superhero stuff from "regular comic books" to sell better..

Two different lines:

1. Batman/Gotham samurai line

2. “Regular” DC line

XM’s DC license originally didn’t include regular comic characters. They released the 1st Samurai Batman, and then continued with a whole samurai line. Their DC license later expanded, now they do regular comic characters, but the samurai line does well enough overall that they continue it. I like this line.

I’d say they don’t do more samurai statues than normal DC statues at this point, but most of their Batman related statues are in the samurai line because it’s existed longer.

Ya pretty much all this, and honestly there Samurai line is overall better than the actual DC comics line in my opinion at least.

Kinda bummed i don't have space/money for any of these, but thats ok.

Have been waiting for this piece for a long time!
I’m really nervous about the reveal. Really hyped/ worried about how the face/ head design will be. For me in this character this will make the absolute difference. Will be interesting to have a couple of heads, one more croc and other more “human croc” like the P1S.

Position seems to be awesome!
