Hmm, ok
Have to look again a samurai movie

Hooded portrait is great! Will consider this based on the price (although I am not a huge fan of the flowers at the bottom of the base).

Nice statue. I’m just not into the whole samurai gig.

No idea if true or not but GFX told me that the price listed was exclusive to NYCC and the price would actually go up when the pre-order starts.

So just to be safe I went ahead and ordered it while I was there, though I still haven't gotten a confirmation email from GFX yet. Anybody know how long it typically takes for them to give you an order number or some type of confirmation?

I can see that. He does have more similarity to Tim than Damian.

3rd portrait and swap out left hand


This would have been perfect if he had hair on the side like the altered Deathstroke portrait.

I wish XM had shown that unmasked Deathstroke portrait all painted up at NYCC. The statue ships sometime between now and the end of the year, and we’ve never seen that portrait painted.

He looks good! I love the colour scheme the pose and the base has nice small details on it. He is a good companion piece to other statues of this line especially with ivy. They should redo one of the unhooded head. I find its to similar to the other unhooded head, at first i thought there where only two heads.

I cant find the image, but in the very beginning there was a image of horse batman with deathstroke and robin. In that image robin has a hood with a pinocchio mask, that head was a mysterious combination of normal robin with some samurai style of this line. Would love to have that head option.
