Finnaly out of the box

Finally got mine out of the box after 3 weeks of it sitting.

This was the most tiresome piece I have had to put together. Never needed a socket set before.

Everything seems good other and a few minor imperfections on the cape and a small paint chip on one of the cape tips (double pin head size).

I found the fitment more challenging then most of my sideshow statues. This is my first Prime1.

This is the most majestic statue I know own and I thought my XM Dark Phoenix was majestic.

Overall I am very happy with this piece. Not quite 1/4 scale. I find it inbetween 1/4 and 1/3.

I find his skin tone on his face a bit off but I think this was the intended colour looking at other photos.

Does anybody know what colour black Tamiya paint or other company would work to touch up the cape?

Congrats! He looks gargantuan next to Catwoman! Do you have any other views of the two of them together?

I will take more pictures when I have a chance and post them. Still trying to decide how to display him. Right now his arm extends past the front of the desk a bit and I am worried about me or the family walking by and hitting it. that is why I do not have the grappler in the gun at the moment.

He is also extremely heavy so not that easy to move around. I can carefully slide him around the desk to shuffle my statues around.

Ditto on not putting the grappling hook in for the same reason. Even then I'm in a similar boat where the arm sticks out further than I'm comfortable with.

Yeah, I contacted them a couple of days ago. Back then they said they were expecting a new batch near the end of april, so next week or the week after we should be getting notice of payment I guess.

I'm still deciding whether or not to get this, $295 shipping for me, the total cost is enough to get a 1/3....
