Looks like the helmet and shoulder pads might be removable.

This may be the most needless ArtFX+ villain to me, would love to see more Bat villains instead. Like Poison Ivy, Riddler, Scarecrow, Black Mask, Mr. Freeze or Owlman, even maybe Black Manta for Aquaman.

I can say the Darkseid and Black Manta ones are on their way though, since the only villainless ArtFX+ so far is Aquaman, along with Wonder Woman.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

From the Kotobukiya Facebook page:

A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! Kotobukiya’s lineup of statues based on the superheroes and villains of DC Comics continues to grow, and following after Captain Cold is another of Flash’s Rogues: GORILLA GRODD! Once a normal ape living in Africa, Grodd (along with his people) was given heightened intelligence by the pilot of a crashed alien starship. Unlike the other inhabitants of Gorilla City, however, Grodd also received incredible telekinetic and telepathic powers! With those and his unchecked aggression the fearsome ape would attempt to take over the world on more than one occasion, though his schemes are continually stopped by the Flash.

In the New 52 era of DC Comics Grodd was once again ruler of Gorilla City, and used the Scarlet Speedster’s powers against him (unsuccessfully). That version of the character is now immortalized in the elite ARTFX+ series with this massive and mean presentation of Gorilla Grodd standing on two legs and bellowing into the air with the skull of one of his victims held aloft! The maniacal villain has an incredible sculpt covered in realistic long fur and the snarl on his face will stop heroes right in their tracks.

Grodd wears a fluttering red loincloth on a gold belt, and his matching helmet, pauldrons, and ragged cape are removable so you can display him as you like! Sculpted by Ikkei Jitsukata, Gorilla Grodd stands an incredible 10 inches tall in the ARTFX+ 1/10 scale, and the magnets in his feet provide extra stability on his included display base. Whether he’s ruling your shelf standing by himself or fighting with the Flash this gorilla is a fantastic addition to your DC Comics collection!
















Up for pre-order at the Kotobukiya website and BBTS.

Very nice...not sure why they're going with him so soon and ahead of other obvious characters, but a cool piece.

Not bad! This piece is not bad at all.

For me, tho ...I'm still on the fence about getting it. Not sure if it's something I need right now.

Wish he also came with another hand, so you could have him without holding the skull. Maybe a hand with his index finger pointing like he's taunting Flash.

If they put that much attention to detail in a 1/10 Darkseid or Doomsday it would be incredible.
