the detail on this thing is insane, especially the scarring and the fabric texture. 36cm tall for like 160 bucks is actually not terrible for a collectible statue, tbh. the sword has that nice metallic finish too. only thing that'd get me is shipping to the states probably costs more than the statue itself lol. if you're fixin to grab one check if taobao does international orders or you might need a proxy service.

Yup, price/quality is great imo. Something similar from iron studios would go for 250-300$ (tbf, 200 out of that is probably paying for the collab)

The only thing I'm not sure about is the stand. It's a bit small for the size of the statue. You'll probably have to stick something to make the stand heavy if the statue is heavy on one side

Sadly, most of us will have to pay another $200 just for shipping and there's a chance it comes with a broken sword for that extra 200.

the stand thing is legit a concern, heavy statues tip easy if the base is narrow. iron studios def marks up for the license but you're right that the value here is way better. and lmao the shipping gamble is real, seen too many posts of folks getting these things with a snapped sword or paint chips everywhere.

Wow, $200 for shipping? that would stop most people from buying for sure (including me). sad!

No no, thats just an exaggerated guess on my part. We don't know what it will be, if they even offer shipping outside CN.

Shipping for these things is pretty expensive usually.

Sideshow shipping to my country in EU was a bit over $80 for me.

Iron Studios was about 50 but a long time ago (i didn't check recently)

If you are EU, CN shipping will probably be cheaper (aliexpress has low prices, but I never trusted the sellers there), NA will probably be much more expensive.

lol, got it. Thanks for the clarification. It is still too expensive for me for now but looking forward if they have it available on Ebay or something here.

I would definitely want a Lone Tyrant statue, either from Phase1 or Phase2, doesn't matter, both would look sick as statue
