Shipping direct from prime1 for me was $307 (east coast), no tax as well obviously so it was the best route –-looking forward to receiving it.

Received Batman yesterday and got a chance to open him up this morning.

This has to be my favorite Batman statue!

The assembly started a little rough with trying the get the torso on the legs. It eventually fit in. Don't know what the issue was but glad it worked out. The statue seemed a little wobbly at first but 5 minutes later it felt secure. The bats were a bit of a pain to figure out. The instructions weren't that great but it's done now. I also had a hard time putting the grapnel gun in his hand and lost a little paint on top of his fist from trying, but I probably won't display him with that hand.

I currently have him displayed with the smirking head and the batarang hand.
I love having the busts so I can easily have the heads available to change them out. I just wish they included one more (being greedy) so all 4 extra heads could be on busts.

Right now it's on my large desk in my home office with Batman being on one end and the XM/LBS 1/3 Captain America being on the other end. BTW, they do look perfect together .

That is all of the room I have for 1/3 scale statues so if Prime 1 were every to come out with an Alex Ross Superman (Justice-Not Kingdom Come), I would be in big trouble .

I got this in Friday, and holy crap this is impressive!

I had to put it together outside as I didn’t want to put it together inside and then take it outside.

But getting it inside to my room was awful lol! I was too lazy to take it apart to get it inside so I took off all the bats and the head and carried it inside to my room, which is normally a 30 second walk, but carrying a 70 pound statue made it seem like forever. The whole thing together is wider and deeper than the doorways in my house so I kinda scraped the cape a little bit getting this inside. And why does it have to be so heavy

I have plenty of pictures but I don’t want to post them all at once, I’ll spread them out.

Anyway, best statue ever. But can statue companies think about weight when making these, for us folk who live alone and can’t really carry 70 pounds by ourselves!

But it took it like a champ....things made pretty sturdy thank the heavens

It is a great looking Batman statue. Love the classic grey and blue colour scheme. It is amazing what P1S has come up with based on 2D illustrations. The only issue I have with this statue is the torso, particularly its waist. It seems a bit too long from some angles. It could be an optical illusion from the photography. Everything else looks great.

Fantastic pics, you're brave taking him outside but the pics make it worth it for us! Photos in real light are so much better

I'm planning to get this before the year ends but. .... I heard there are some minor leaning issues on this statue? Is it true and something I need to be concerned about?

Mine has zero leaning issues. I can't speak for everyone though. It came pretty perfect thank goodness.
