That is completely incorrect. Arthas sold out VERY quickly considering that a massive amount (over half) had sold before it was even RELEASED (preorders). Once the images came out, people when nuts on the pre-orders. It was so popular that most suppliers had VERY limited stock allocated to them and once they sold out, Sideshow did not supply anymore. The reason why it was shown as low stock for a while is that Sideshow kept selling out, then getting new pieces to complete the 3000 production run until they completed the run. They almost never produce the entire amount of pieces beforehand (in this case 3000). It is still the best Arthas statue to date and is in high demand in the second hand market. There is a reason its value has appreciated over 100% in a matter of a couple of years.

The Sideshow Arkham Batman pose is based on an EXACT 3D printed model of in-game anatomy. I see nothing wrong with the pose. Prime 1 always get it right (check out their Transformers line, PERFECT proportions and posing). To me the pose is epic and will be the best Batman statue for many years.

I also own it and it isn't incorrect at all, collectors at statue forum and sideshow freaks will confirm this. That Batman statue is 1/3 scale by Prime1 not Sideshow. I was referring to Sideshows 1/4.
