What is prime1 black label?
Can’t find any explanation on their website or google. Statue looks same but cost $$$$ more? What exactly does the black label version get you, more switchouts? better paint? hand delivered by cute Japanese dressed in bunny suits?

In general, "black label" means something that's exclusive or upper tier. So, the good stuff.

I see thanks, but isn’t silicone skin considered a negative by many, I know I wouldn’t want silicone skin statues to avoid all the issues down the road.

It’s also seen as a positive to many too.
As the silicon nearly always looks much better than the resin sculpts.
But of course the unknown longevity is the issue. Some have said 20 years, and others 30 years. Heck I think someone once said even lower before.

They never make anything like they used to. There are outdoor statues that have been around for 1000+ years.

that’s what Iv been saying I just can’t take that chance especially with it being insanely expensive and prime 1 has proven they can make beautiful/realistic sculpts out of poly stone/resin the silicone thing is cool but too much risk and what’s to say you want to sell it years from now and it naturally deteriorated no ones gonna take it lol so your left with a deformed statue lol

Unless it's getting delivered by a sexy Japanese in their 30's willing to get dirty, I'm not interested.

Unless they use cheap silicone there really isn't much to worry about
