Received the statue early in the morning, it freaked me out that the statue did not fit into the base, after "fighting" with him for an entire day, finally, he was in.
On the internet, most people love the "idea" of the statue but does not enjoy much about its scale, some collectors even said SSC had been stupid to do that 1:5. To those critics, I think for a 22" statue, 1:5 is the best scale, considering the price being charged as 1:4, making it a 1:5 is a contingent necessity.
Like most SSC statues, DD's base has been done gorgeously and even the harshest critic should say it is beautiful. (Look at the snail on the grave, the art print clearly suggests DD is standing at the grave of his love one in a rainy day.)
Another thing that I love about SSC's statues is about how they portray the body mass of their character, the back of DD, as you can see cannot be more detail then it can be.
The EX items, alt head and hand and art print. I think it is good for SSC to give the art print an envelope, it makes me feel more exclusive and the $300 more I pay, worth every penny.
In conclusion, the context the statue has captured is a sublime, the pose and the base is nearly perfect and the only thing that you might want to complain is it might not look univocal with other 1:4-1:5ish statues.
Price: $259US Both Ex and Reg version is waitlisted sold out. (But as most of the collectors know, in most cases after a week or two they might be up again.)
9/10
