Currently i am on the fence with regards to Prime 1 Studio Grail Deluxe
Time and time again, i keep pondering over the images over on the Prime 1 website. Fact is, i know nothing about the character, and i am not too sold on the base. Neither am i sold on what appears to be a fabric cape. At the same time, the piece has a lot going for it. The demonic portraits all look 10/10

Same with Prime 1 Katana

She's too beautiful not to buy her but she is 1/3 and doesn't really fit in my collection. 1/4 would be amazing for my the Samurai line.
Maybe next to my Prime 1 Arkham Knight Harley ?

they are both great pieces, especially Katana with that bonus portrait.
at the moment I'm trying to figure out if F4F's Faye Valentine would fit with everything else I've got...which she doesn't, even my wife said "but she's not a barbarian with a sword?" I guess I've got a bit of a warrior thing going on.

may be the time to get something different...

P1 Grail is a good one. I was in a similar situation with loving the piece, but not knowing anything about her. I ended up scooping up the Forever Evil and Darkseid War issues. She's actually pretty cool in the books.

P1 Katana is another good looking piece. She's not for my collection, but she's one of my brother's top characters. There's a strong chance she'll end up in his collection.

P1 1:4 Aloy is my fence sitter.

I love everything about the statue, it is the price $1100 that kills me. I told myself once 1:4 got to $1000 I'd have to stop.* I said that thinking I had a good five years of time. If she was 1:3 I'd already have pre ordered, but then again she would likely be $1800 and having this same conversation.

For me, SSC Red Sonja: Queen of Scavengers. Such a beautiful piece, but while I know of her as a character, she's not one I have strong ties to. She doesn't fit anywhere in my collection. But she's so gorgeous.



I actually love Catwoman as a character and I find this DCC piece very beautiful. But this doesn't really fit in with my collection either no matter how hard I try to figure out a way. Also being 1/8 instead of the usual 1/6 throws things off even more. I keep thinking maybe I can buy her for my wife, but this doesn't fit her collection either.



I've loved this TH Pennywise since I first saw him at SDCC a few years ago. Now that I'm tightening my focus, he's beginning to fall by the wayside. He doesn't really fit with anything else and I'm not a fan of squatting poses for pieces.



Probably my 2nd favorite Batman piece ever produced, this P1 Noel has been something I've considered forever. I would've gotten him at the P1 holiday sale earlier in the year if it wasn't for the crazy shipping they had attached. Space is running slim and even though I really love this piece, I'm unsure if it's one I need to own or not.



There's tons more that aren't coming to mind at this moment, but this is a good place to stop.

I think that Red Sonja is still among the best sculpts I've seen. No regrets in getting her.

Red Sonja is to me what Powergirl is to you, there's always room for more Red.
