I just bought the exclusive 1/3 on sale, paid $1375 total from the Prime1 website, total including shipping and no discounts. Prices are insane for new (and smaller) statues.
Thanks for the video, Chris. Good work. Cool statue. Just hope that prime 1 can deliver on the statues already ordered/paid for...2.5+ years on one, and 1+ year on the other...
Never shared the love for this statue that so many collectors have. Passed on the 1/3 offering, and will definitely pass on paying 1/3 prices for this new 1/4 scale.
I like the statue, for sure it's an amazing piece. But I also agree on the price. Just one version with the heads for 999$ and then I think you have a winner. With the 1200 $, you can get the 1/3 scale for that price. And maybe even cheaper. The regular version would've been more appealing to collectors even they at least would have included one or two of the extra portraits in my opinion.
Holy crap Batman! The price is ridiculous for 1/4 scale. Prime 1 is out of their mind. That’s why I’m team Tweeterhead all the way; they absolutely killed it with the Two Face statue and the price was on point.
Yes, sir, it's a good day. Me and my mom's got the house we wanted, Batgirl pre-ordered, and I just bought sideshow batman tht has the posable cape by Martin Canale. It was brand new for 450 + the extra, a steal. It's the sideshow batman tht u had posing with the villians and other batman characters in the case. He's gonna go great with batgirl. Too excited
This is disappointing, especially after Hush Superman. That felt like a great deal, and the portrait sold me (and a lot of other people) on it immediately. However, this, with it's needlessly changed exclusive, removal of the bats, potential leaning issues, and ridiculous price, is a step down in every way. Guess I'll keep searching for the definitive 1/4 Batman for my collection, or settle for the Batcave version.
I can totally understand your disappointment. It's tough when a highly anticipated piece doesn't meet expectations, especially after the success of Hush Superman. I hope you find the perfect Batman for your collection soon!
These two Hush statues are going to be the reason why I have to change my display case. I need one that's at least 15 inches deep. Any recommendations Chris?
Just curious how many collectors have reached out to you that have the leaning issue. I’ve had mine since 2021 and thank god have had no issues. Also what did you do to try and prevent more leaning.
Thank you for sharing your experience! It’s always nice to hear from collectors who haven't had issues. I’ve tried various methods like stabilizing them with foam supports to help prevent leaning.
Not a fan of the bandage Hush portrait. Would have preferred that they gave us the 1/3 bandage portrait. Plus an additional $200? I think I’ll be good with the standard Batcave version since that’s how he’ll be displayed.
I want this in 1/3, just because there's no bats everywhere 🤣 and make the cape PVC or whatever like the tech 1000! But this looks nice in 1/4, I still love my 1/3 (even if it's too damn heavy and I'm always afraid it will break my floor 🤣)
I totally understand your preference for 1/3! It’s great to hear you love it despite the weight. Hopefully, future designs will balance durability and design better!
There is a lot of extra pieces for the extra $200. I am expecting many to be upset with the new head as they were with the Superman 1/4 getting a new head. I quite like this simplified version but I am not really sold on it. I do have the Superman on PO but not really convinced that I NEED this. The Superman is an easy stand alone piece. If I do PO it, I will likely just order the regular, it will save $200 and I don’t really need all those switchouts. I know I would NEVER display it with that new Hush head anyway.
I totally understand your concerns! Collecting can be a balancing act between extra features and value. It's all about what fits best in your collection and what you truly enjoy.
the way i look at it, you're spending $200 for the extra arm pieces and nothing more. 1/4 Superman had 4 heads and stands at $999. he deluxe should have been offered at the same price point as Supes at $999 and the regular prob $899. i was really looking forward to getting the Hush line in 1/4 as my only statues and already have Supes on PO, but this is making me re-think my decision.
Chris can you elaborate a little bit on the leaning I thought it was the first hush statue that was leaning so this one has a lean as well ? Think I’m gonna pass if I was going to get it for the same price I would just get the third scale which is still available on their website for the same price point. I just find it to be a little bit off with the bat computer scaling wise like what is Batman sitting on the floor to use the computer I don’t know the more I look at this statue I want less less each day. With a little more dynamic pose I think I like the first one better. Keep up the good work brother 👊🏼
That piece looks good, but we already knew it. Honestly, I struggle to feel excited with Prime 1 these days. There's something with how they handle their projects that just doesn't feel right, from edition sizes to switchable parts and of course pricing. And that's a shame because I really love their unique aesthetic.
I totally understand where you're coming from. Prime 1 has definitely had its ups and downs, and it's frustrating when pricing and project handling don't match the quality of their designs.
As great as this piece is 1K for a 1/4 scale museum pose seems a bit much while sideshow is giving us 2 character 1/4 scale dioramas for the same price point.
I've been waiting for the right version of Batman to add to my collection. It is this one (regular not deluxe), but still hard to swallow 1k for a 1/4 scale.
Not really excited about this release! The leaning issues with the 1/3 would concern me with this 1/4 edition and gives me pause towards this one. The price is ridiculous and the exclusive portrait does not have the wow factor in my opinion. Congratulations to those who are considering adding this to their collections!
Fantastic statue, a shame about the price. They'll price themselves out of business if it continues. They definitely need to adjust. But I totally understand people paying this price for this statue, it's magnificent.
I appreciate your insights! The statue is indeed a remarkable piece, and pricing can be a tricky balance for businesses. Hopefully, they find a way to make it accessible for more people!
Ah man so you have to opt for the bonus version if you want all the other headpieces, including the unmasked? Thats lame :-/ I thought the standard came with everything but the bonus head sculpt. Bonus sculpt is jarringly awkward imo. Looks so out of place on the blue cape. Def worse than 1/3 version. Price shoulda been $800/850. Better to wait for 1/3 sale if it cost almost the same 🤷 Will wait to see if this gets close to waitlisted before deciding whether to buy. Shoulda left the bats on it. Between the batcave computer dashboard and bonus sculpt, that’s all they needed to change. How do you have a batcave version without bats?? 🦇
@@BatmanStatueCollector the weirdest part about it is that their Superman regular edition has multiple swap outs. Just not the bonus. So they are inconsistent. They must’ve not had faith in the bonus to sell the bonus version alone so they added the rest. A grand plus for a simple 1/4 is insane…
I know you have not been feeling well at our probably very busy but just wanted to make sure you got my email Last Sunday’s winning of the lion -o- as I haven’t gotten anything on paying the shipping
@@BatmanStatueCollector raising the price won't save them from the fall. They diluted the prestige of the brand. Their statues are worth shit on the aftermarket. It would still be cheaper to purchase the 1/3 DX Bonus today than this 1/4.

Prime1 making the Sony’s PS5 Pro look affordable
It’s interesting how these premium collectibles can change our perspective on pricing! The PS5 Pro definitely has its competition now.

It really is insane. You can still get the 1/3 at great prices right now!
That bonus price is ridiculous my goodness
People are not seeming to love it this morning
@@BatmanStatueCollector I’m one of them
I ended up getting the 1/3 version today with Batman day sales. Looking forward to it!
Congrats, you will love it!
Thanks for the video, Chris. Good work. Cool statue. Just hope that prime 1 can deliver on the statues already ordered/paid for...2.5+ years on one, and 1+ year on the other...
Thanks for watching! I totally understand the frustration with long wait times on statues. Hopefully, Prime 1 will come through soon!
Thanks for the video Chris!

Always other options out there which is a great thing!

I'm glad I have the 1/3 version! the base and the bats completed it in the overall aesthetic.
It's awesome to hear that the 1/3 version is working for you! The combination of the base and the bats really does create a unique aesthetic.
These two Hush statues are going to be the reason why I have to change my display case. I need one that's at least 15 inches deep. Any recommendations Chris?
Nice ❤❤❤
I’m glad I got my 1/3 hush when I did. I payed 1120 for the deluxe edition.
Nice! Glad you snagged that deluxe edition! Hope it’s everything you wanted and more!
@@BatmanStatueCollector it definitely was! Pairs great with the Lee Bermejo Catwoman.
Was excited for this, but the ridicilous Price makes me reconsider, if I really wanna get rid of my blue Variant of the SS Batman PF for this.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!!

Seems to be that everyone would have preferred the original bandaged head!!
I love my 1/3 scale and glad other collectors can get this piece. That being said I’m not a fan of the hush portrait
seems like most preferred the older sculpt!
Stupid price.
Sales are slowing, companies should adjust their prices in 2024
Biggest reason why I will not get this.
Do miss the bats but looks good.

I like it. But I don’t know if I wanna drop that much on it. On the fence
It's totally understandable to be cautious about spending! Sometimes it's worth weighing the pros and cons before making a decision.

I might just get the regular on this one.
I think they regular still packs a punch!

I hope that came in Black, i dont think so but is a hope
Guessing not, but who knows what Prime 1 is thinking LOL
I've been waiting for the right version of Batman to add to my collection. It is this one (regular not deluxe), but still hard to swallow 1k for a 1/4 scale.
Unfortunately pretty standard these days outside of Sideshow
😊
I hope they make the ivy hush. That's my favorite ivy but I only collect 1/4 scale
It would be a no brainer to do her in 1/4

I guess they thought the bats were just too “extra” for this version! Who knew they were going for a minimalist Batcave look? 😂

The price is complete BS
It's out of this world.
the original 1/3 scale bonus head are much better
Not for me but thanks for the info
My pleasure, thanks for checking out the video today!
No thanks I only have space for 1 Batman and it’s gonna be the Tec1000 for me. This doesn’t do anything to wow me.
Appreciate your thoughts!
1600 dollars with shipping, so not worth it
I'm ok just ordering the superman, the batman is nice but it's not as iconic.
I know you have not been feeling well at our probably very busy but just wanted to make sure you got my email Last Sunday’s winning of the lion -o- as I haven’t gotten anything on paying the shipping
MONEY GRAB , SO DONE COLLECTING PRIME1
I dont blame them, they are a business afterall, but I understand your frustrations!
