I have been collecting comic statues for over 20 years, this channel will serve as an archive for my personal collection. As some pieces move out I will be doing quick honest reviews of each, with the goal of reviewing all statues in my collection. I have also had most major videogame consoles since the early 90s through mid-2010s. Some AAA games purchased were collector editions so there will also be reviews of these games or video game consoles.
Thanks for viewing.

Sideshow Psylocke X-Force Variant Exclusive Review
Do you display your live action statues next to your comic ones?
I keep the live action close to each other but they are mixed with the comic ones. Doesn't throw anything off unless you get close and see some are based off actors. Guests or non-comic fans that have come over can't really tell the difference.
@DarkcrossCollection sweet I'm thinking about picking this up. I've seen some good prices in ebay.
@@joshuastephens3051definitely if you liked the Snyder designs it’s a great pick up, unfortunately the Black Friday inventory is long gone but if you can get for under 400 I would say it’s a good deal since it had been on sale from retailers for that price for months.
How you like the weta items ????? It looks pretty damn good they kind of gotten that lower level recognition through out the industry but I think they are bad ass
@@MrGizmo5602 they are well made and the likeness is really good. My Batman had issues in shipping but other collectors arrived in one piece. What I don’t like is the base for both Batman and Joker were a bit too big and really heavy but there environment sculpt and paint app are some of the best in my collection.
If i collected D.C. this would be a must have. Great video.
I’m glad you enjoyed the video. I’m actually a bigger Marvel fan than DC comic wise. I’m just glad this was made, as I am a big fan of the Snyder films.
Thank you for the review, I've been wanting a superman for a while now and I always gravitate towards diorama 1/4 statues and this one still looks the best to me. New SS premium to me has to thick torso and don't like the head sculpts either. Prime one, the new Hush 1/4 Superman bonus version with an extra head looks great but then again the base is so basic and the pose as well, they always do the same. I would've loved most of all an updated version of this, maybe additional head sculpt and updating the base (love Brainiac) but that's never gonna happen. I am hoping though they drop something else in regards to the new Superman movie but then again i prefer comic look over movies. Think i will pick this up as well as otherwise I'll wait forever and I've been also wanting this for the longest time.
@@Arynex thanks for watching…same here, I’ve wanted this since it came out but bought the Wonder Woman instead, which took longer to sell out than this Ex. Out of the 1/4 options, I think it has the best balance of sculpt, pose and base. P1 looks cool but I’m not a fan of the base, same with some recent customs even when they have story bases it’s too basic.
How's the sizing
@@rw8126 undersized. I’m a size 10 and got a 10, it’s a bit too tight on my right foot. The Deadpool version I got an 11, it’s comfortable but slightly too big. I would say go atleast 1/2 size up.
Can you believe that today it is easy to access the purchase of this statue?
@@LuckNyu really? I wouldn’t be surprised since i am sure it is not licensed. Anyone have the white version?
Are they true to size ?
@@dubking024 I am normally a size 10, I have the Wolverines in 10 and they are a bit tight. The Deadpool’s are 11, they are comfortable but slightly too big. So I would say get atleast 1/2 size up.
This piece still holds up. Have always had my eye on this piece. Had the premium format SS with the mix media. Not a fan of mix media it only work well on certain pieces and this is one of them.
@@ramtruth3 completely agree, still one of the best Doom statues licensed or unlicensed. I have a custom coming in the next 2 weeks, I will do a video of that and compare with this one.
Man, I wish these were being sold in my country. For some reason only Deadpool version is available
You can try EBay or StockX many are being sold for 40-50 above retail.
can you take the pouch off?
@@pxdghost yeah they easily come off via a button on the back
I got both! Havent picked up from store. What do you recommend i do with them
Nice! Wear them. Based on photos I like the look of Deadpool better than Wolverine. My Wolverine’s arrive on Wednesday, I’ll do a quick review of that one too. I am not really a sneaker collector so I don’t know how limited these are or if they are.
still love my Bowens! They have a hand crafted, comics-accurate charm that the new overly complicated statues lack. Also the scale is perfect for space, you can have show off a whole entire team or line up in a single display case.
Picked this up recently. No damage to the coat but there is a noticable gap where the upper torso is attached to the waist. Torso wasn't pushed down enough. I am annoyed with it but still like the statue.
Glad to hear there were no breaks. Checking out the one I had to destroy it seems the coat is sandwiched between the legs and torso, similar to SS BWL, they should have taken notes from that design to avoid breaks. Seems this last batch had bad QC or molding/assembly.
100. yay :D
Wow thanks, didnt think I would get 10 much less 100.
@@DarkcrossCollection btw what do you think of the new Red Sonja from Sideshow?
@@YOUDODEADLIFT I really like it although I prefer the Harbottle version from a few years ago...I am waiting for production pics, I have had a couple statues with blood splatter usually it doesn't look good when done by the factory.
Man an ancient uncanny villain. Awesome video.
Thanks. He is definitely one of those old characters that are rarely used and will probably never see in statue form again.
So glad you got this one and of course me too lol... This is one I wanted for a long time but I always was not too impressed with it from images. In hand it is up there as currently one of my top 5. when I move and set them up I have a few scuffs and chips I will try and repaint, and when I do this I think i will repaint the tendrils as well to silver... um bad paints.... I would say Kraven is one of the worst ones I have, but I need to get them all out and look them over. I am sure I have at least 75 busts not and still looking for more
For sure one of the best Bowen mini-busts I owned, the only issues are the teeth and color of the tendrils. Bowen overall does a great job, l had about 72 full statues and 22 busts years ago only the Annihilus FS and Black Widow Variant FS had bad paint jobs. I still have the Arcade MB, I probably do a quick review but I dropped it while cleaning it one year and broke 8 fingers 😞
This is crazy, how do I buy one? Are there any trustworthy sites in stock? Or would I have to get this second hand on eBay or something?
Sorry I think this is long sold out. Best chance is to buy from FB or EBay. Original price was 350, I wouldn't pay too much more as the materials do not feel as solid as some other statue makers.
Fanaticanime store has d version in stock right now
So sick, I didn't think they had one. I love it🔥
Thanks. Yeah this is the only licensed Gladiator. People have made at least 3 unlicensed customs. I recently did a review of one of them on my channel. At the end of the video I do compare this one with the custom.
Nice review. You mentioned being turned off by the Dread suit version, but there was also a "hentai" version too. Did you consider getting that one?
Yeah there was a deluxe version that came with a switch out hentai torso, never considered getting that one. I mainly wanted it to be somewhat game accurate.
Just received mine and opened lastnight and also broke . My cape is broke off exactly where you think yours might have previously been Broken . Clearly the packaging should have had more thought put into this piece .
Sorry to hear. Ever since i started posting my review on FB I got a lot of replies from other collectors that had the same break. Personally I think this last batch was poorly made by the factory, along with packaging. Hope you can get a replacement or money back.
You consider selling this piece?
Sorry no, it took me a long time to finally get this and Doom is my favorite character, will probably be one of the last to leave my collection. Thanks for watching.
This is bad ass
Thanks Mike, it’s a great sculpt just sucks the both I got came damaged.
@@DarkcrossCollection yes. But are you shipping back for new one ????
@@MrGizmo5602 Weta would only do 1 replacement, I could either return for a refund or keep and get a % off. After posting the vid a lot of collectors replied they also received theirs damaged, might be this batch. I opted to keep.
@@DarkcrossCollection it is badass I probably would have done the same. Especially if you take a look around no one has done ben with that costume, which I love. I did order the queens Studios one coming out later this year
@@MrGizmo5602 nice I like that one, Queen updated their schedule should be coming by Q3
Great review. I broke the eye effects on mine too when taking him out the box. He’s actually 6’6 so I don’t think the height is too off
Yeah I could see it, also the art design they made him really bulky so he looks larger than my other 1/4.
I also broke mine! One snapped off and when I tried glueing it back on I dropped it and the other one broke.
@@dannyimp7472 wow sorry to hear, checking mine it seems too fragile, I may just leave alone
@@DarkcrossCollection I'm not even going to attempt to fix mine. It will only come off again if I dust it. To be honest it doesn't look too bad now both sides have snapped off. I'll send you a pic on facebook(that's where i saw this video)
Good video man. We got no breaks in ours that we shipped or received. So weird man. I hope you get it fixed.
Thanks. I glued mine using epoxy, Weta is providing compensation. It may be this particular batch, Weta did say in their email it’s a common break during shipment, a few collectors on Batman Statue Collector said they received broken ones including replacements.
@@DarkcrossCollection they got a lot to learn since modernizing their statue. Cool. Who knows right. I’m glad it worked out.
Love the overall pose and style of that classic version👌🏼
Agreed. I think the new one has a better sculpt and paint but I grew up with the classic one, looks more like Poison Ivy to me.
Yeah the newer base and paint work is more involved tonally but that aside, im just hooked on the sculpt flow and curvy proportions/pose of the classic figure more. 🙂
This is easily one of the best Batman statues ever made. Sculpt, paint, concept, pose, presence. All great. Having said that, the major issue with this was the design of the cape. Not that it looks ugly, it looks amazing. But that in shipment it probably had a 80% likelihood of breaking. The design should have broken the cape/trench coat into two sections for transport and assembly. But once repaired, it is virtually unnoticeable. So overall, still one of the best looking Batman statues ever and a must have for any Batfleck fan 👍
Completely agree. Total ball drop by the factory imo in terms of production design. I think a design assembly like the Sideshow Batman Who Laughs would have worked. Since I had to break the first one in order to get a replacement, you could see the torso was glued to the legs with the trench coat in the middle, so it seems it was already casted this way. Still the statue hits all the marks for a movie piece, sculpt, paint and concept.
This statue is one of the best batman statues ever made, and most realistic statue in general
Weta did an incredible job with the likeness and overall realism of the statue. The details in the sculpt are amazing, I may post 360 video later to highlight some areas I forgot, also noticed my video got out of focus in the last few minutes.
Looks amazing 😻
Thanks just wish it didn’t come broken. Now Cavill Superman and I’m good.
Great video!! Sorry about the break. I have the same one and mine too had the same break on the coat. Was able to get it fixed professionally.
Thats great you were able to get it professionally repaired., affordable, I hope? When I have contacted repair guys near me in the past their cost was almost as much as the statue.
It was frree repair from the company. They have repair pros that do the jobs for free if you piece came in that way.@@DarkcrossCollection
Do you still have this one? I'm tempted to pick it up. Own the blue variant but the face sculpt isn't Psylocke enough for me... Got the new crouching one and the shading is terrible. Still want that perfect Psylocke... Is this still the definitive version in your opinion?
No I sold it and bought SS Doom on Throne. Personally of the 1/4 scale licensed Psylocke’s I think this X-Force version is the best. The sculpt by Maria is amazing, in person the portrait it beautiful and the factory did a great paint app. I recently saw one sell on FB for under 1K by a reputable seller. You may get lucky since it’s hard to sell these days.
@@DarkcrossCollection there are a few selling at the moment but they are insanely expensive. I've not had much luck on FB marketplace in the past. People generally block me immediately after I message them for inquiries which makes zero sense to me. It's quite frustrating because I'm a legitimate buyer with the money, and I have been collecting for many years. I guess people are paranoid or something. Who knows. For aftermarket I usually buy through eBay or Mercari and have had good experiences there. Well, thank you very for getting back to me. I hope you're liking your Doom on throne. I do think I will pursue this version of Psylocke. From your video so really does look incredible. I've wanted this variant for a long time and have nearly every other X-Men character statue that I want so it feels about right on timing. Anyhow, thanks again. Have a great evening.
Just got my Skin tone deadly nature in today and it is an amazing piece, finally time to retire my original Ivy.
All the pics I’ve seen of the skin tone are amazing, best Ivy Sideshow has made imo, even the factory pulled it off, very close to proto.
I think it's made of resin?
It is, I don’t know why I said plastic. The portraits are very light, so I think they are probably hollow.
@KingDarkcross i didn't consider that, but that would explain why it's lighter than the other statues I have of similar size
Great Job!
for what ? ordering ?
No, the teeth are not broken. That is the effect they were going for.
Thanks. Yeah after I filmed the review I verified on StatueForum. Really great affect, I couldn't tell.
I love the deadly nature!!! I’m stuck on the waitlist for the variant hope I can snag it!!! Great vid thx for the much needed comparison!!! 😁
Might have a chance people drop out all time. Also keep on eye on seconds.
I have the deadly nature in skin tone and the added contrast for the piece is absolutely gorgeous! I think it's the most detailed piece of all of the sideshow statues I have
Great video. I just reviewed the flesh variant and have the exact same tooth sculpt on it. Excellent statue.
I watched your review the other day, flesh looks great. Yeah before emailing SS I went on statue forum and confirmed the teeth are supposed to look like that.
I skipped this one due to me liking the older one better but nice statue
Very nice statue I have the regular one coming later this month.
Thanks for watching it’s a great statue. Seeing collector pics, I like how the regular version has a freckle effect on the face paint.
Are you going to pick up the deadly nature ivy?
I have the green one on PO, just got a notification it should arrive 1st week of January. I will compare both.
What a Beast, i whish i had the 1:4 Version instead of the 1:6.
Thanks for watching, he is definitely a beast, dwarfs many 1/4 scale, best part is the amazing sculpt. Best Doomsday pose imo.
Love this piece and so mad at myself for canceling my PO. Hey man I just started my UA-cam channel where I usually bring on someone to chat about statues,comics,movies, video games. Would you be interested in hopping on sometime and chat about any of those things? I have been trying to stay consistent with posting and I usually do live streams every Tuesday and Thursday.
Thanks for the offer unfortunately it would be hard for me to join a stream, kids take up a lot of time when I get home. Definitely a great piece, you should jump on the WL for this or the green variant, I heard the paint on the variant is great, from collector pics the hair seems to be painted better.
I don't like badges but except for one he is Loki I Love him
Yay Iron Man
This character her name is Jane from X-Men
I can't weigh to go Marvel land at Disney California
😂🎉 pretty cool from X-Men
I Love DC and also Marvel 🦸🏼♀️🦸🏻♂️🦹🏾♂️🦹🏽♀️
Very nice
Thanks, really great piece in person. Big fan of your channel.
@@DarkcrossCollection we are family
Beautiful piece
Thank you it’s a great classic Ivy
@4:15 That is one issue I have consistently encountered with every single POISON IVY statue I've purchased and/or those I've considered purchasing: the green pigmentation in IVY's dress is always more subdued, like a more matte shade of green, than the one depicted in the promotional materials (regardless of it been a video, a jpeg image or printed material). Same applies to the red in her hair: always less shiny and bright than the promo material. With the hair it is specially disappointing as in real life auburn red hair, carrot red hair and hazelnut reddish hair are most often kind of bright instead. I've almost given up on ordering any more statues of the character due to his consistent miscue. Thanks for posting this video and blessings for you on this new purchase!
Thanks for watching. While not proto paint it’s still really good. I do wish the hair had more of the orange highlights like what was shown in the Sideshow paint video but overall it’s a great statue.
