I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

This was originally a "must-have" for me, but now I don't know what to do. I can't think of where I could put this without making some drastic changes (like scrapping my P1 Arkham statues, which I do not think I'll ever do).

And while the yellow emblem is a plus for me, the lack of the shorts looks a little off....

This piece's footprint is just too darn big for me. Still, if you have the room and the cash, it looks nice.

I wonder what the dimensions are of just the base. I'm only seeing from one end of the base to the end of the cape. I might be able to deal with some cape overhang. Ugh. I should just not bother.

This is where I'm at. I was 100% all in when they revealed it and I fully expected it to be around 42" wide and thought it would actually be taller than it is. The price is expected and I'm fine with it.

It's the depth that changes the game for me. I was mentally prepared for it to be 30" deep, but 37.4" is probably just too much. My room is 15' x 13' and having a shelf stick out 3'+ into a room is just not going to look good. There is only one non-ridiculous place I could put it, but I'd have to build all new shelves and drastically change what I'm collecting to make it work.

I'm really in love with the piece and may end up getting it and just trying to figure it out later, but unless I remodel and finish our basement to make a bigger collection room, I don't know how it wouldn't just end up looking absurd/silly in my collection.

Kind of sad about it for the moment.

That's the usual drama with Prime 1 pieces.
Well, one of them.

I've tried to figure something out, but I'm out of luck. It's just too big. I wonder how many people can pull this off. Even if I cleared out my EIGHT Arkham statues it would still only fit in that space with the sides slightly hanging off depth-wise.

My only other option is to hand over a guest room to this one statue.

I've got the original Hush Batman and I'll have the new Joker statue, so that will have to do...

And I've got the little (compared to this) Iron Studios Batman vs. Joker.

How long do you think it will take for this to go up at Sideshow?

Typically how much are shipping/import fees when ordering directly from Prime 1? If there are any Canadians in here that would be even more helpful.

There is a local shop that can order it in for me if Sideshow distributes it; I would still have to pay import fees going from the USA to Canada but I could wave the shipping fees. I am assuming that is the best way to go?
