DC Collectibles Designer Series Nightwing & Batgirl Statue Review

Street Date: 2019-02-13
MSRP: $250
Price I Paid: $170
Edition Size: 5000
Statue Scale: 1/7

Designed by Ryan Sook
Sculpted by Paul Harding Studios

This statue was released the day before Valentine's Day this year.  I ordered one that arrived the Saturday of that week, but it was defective.  The price for this statue has hovered around $200 - $210 just about everywhere, so I didn't get another one until eBay's 15% off promo earlier this week on 03-12.

The statue comes in one piece, no assembly required.  You can hang it upside down, though the best angle to view it is to rotate it so that you can see Nightwing and Batgirl's faces as they gaze deeply into each other's eyes.  DC included some plastic nubs that you can stick to the "bottom" of the base so that it doesn't get scuff on your display surface.

The sculpt and paint app are beautiful.  There is one oddity, though.  The area where Batgirl's left thigh meets the left boot looks a little thin.  I don't know if this was a sculpting decision or manufacturing error, though it's not really noticeable unless you're looking right at it.
