I think from a detail point of view, the likes of Assassin's Creed wins out as those figures tend to be of a high calibre, but for me this statue has more to it every time I look at it - from the texture on the clothing, to the nice metallic paint, it's just all around a nice quality item!

Yeah having two different ones kind of suck BUT it does have some advantages.

First would be a choice between which one you like better, and after closer inspection I have to agree with what Swift had said awhile back that the EU one is much better looking and would have been my choice if I cared for the game.

Second would be that is makes each version technically rarer and more exclusive then it would have been.



I am also glad for the fans to hear it has good detail, you can never be sure even from pictures (sometimes they make them look really good from the pics, for example Cole and Drake statues looked great in pics).



I would say my best quality (and best detailed) statue is still my Kingdoms of Amalur Prismere Troll statue by McFarlane Toys, the thing is just amazing quality and all statues would take a que from it. The Songbird has great detail but is not the best material like the KOA one.



What is the Injustice one made from?

I agree with TMM - the euro/aus version is highly detailed: you only have to look at the patterns on the red part of Wonder Woman's chest piece. Overall I'm happy with the presentation: You can see the actual statue from inside the box unlike the US version and it came with a real comic book instead of a digital one. Not bad for an extra $30 AUS.

The comic book in the US one is also a real comic book xx

Hi,

It sucks for someone like me who wants both! I do prefer the UK (European?) Version of the statue which is what I have, but I want both!

I agree, I have bought collector's editions before and thought 'wtf is that?' - Alone in the Dark on 360 springs to mind with the main character figurine which was terrible!

The injustice figure is made from a hard plastic but with rubber elements (Batman's cape is a rubber material) so the 2 combine to form a nice finish, but it's the paint that really makes the statue pop - that metallic/shiney finish is superb especially with the detail moulded into the model - a great example as stated above is Wonder Woman's top, it has a pattern to it that, whilst simple, really stands out thanks to the paint and the talent of the artist. Excellent figurine and I am very pleased with it.

I've just received the US CE to go alongside my UK one, and I must say, both statues are really really nice xx

I may be looking to get the European version of this CE (for the statue and another steelbook) is there anyone who might be interested in the statue (and box etc.) from the US version? Or maybe helping me import the UK one? I'm not sure if the games themselves are region-free but figured maybe we could "swap" versions if someone in the UK area is able to pick up that CE but looking for the US one?

I'm thinking this may be more cost-effective than just buying it on amazon or amazon.uk.

PM me if you're interested. Thanks!

Actually it would be more cost effective to buy direct from amazon since their shipping is cheaper.

I'll defer to your expertise good sir, but when I ordered it from the US amazon it was ~$185, when I selected it from Amazon.UK it was ~$150. The US version is $99 at my local retail store (or Amazon).

Hmmm.... now that I think about it I guess it'd be about the same after shipping costs etc. Well played.
