Val Kilmer Returns In Prime 1 Studio’s ‘Batman Forever’ Statue


Batman Forever and its star Val Kilmer are being brought back to the collectibles market by Prime 1 Studio. In February 2023, this 1/3rd scale premium statue will debut with multiple different versions and a very cool optional accessory.
Measuring at 38 inches, the sculpted muscle armor that became iconic in the Batman films of the 1990s is on full display here, as are the stylish gadgets. Grapples, batarangs, darts, batcuffs, and more are available via the Gadget Wall Display accessory.

The talented team of sculptors and painters have expressed their passion and dedication in their work by crafting a Batman with incredible likeness and impeccable quality! Taken as a whole, Batman’s costume is stylish and stealthy, an improvement over the design of the last two suits! Posed in an iconic stance, Batman’s attention is pulled off to his right, in a direction we may never know about. The unbelievable craftsmanship in his face alone, should sell you on this statue: from his lifelike eyes to the subtle pout of his lips, to the natural complexion of his skin. Likewise, his fantastic anatomy has been sculpted to exacting perfection. Taut, but not tense. Solid, but not inflexible.
Batman is equipped with a svelte Utility Belt and synthetic leather cape that possesses the weight and feel of his cinematic cape. Batman’s formidable base is rendered in realistic rocky textures, cool metallic painting, and natural airbrushing to call to mind his legendary Batcave. And decorating the front and back of this pedestal is his Bat symbol logo and Bats.
Furthermore, the Batman Ultimate Bonus Version comes with a number of incredible additions! First and foremost is the jaw-dropping in-scale Gadget Wall from Batman Forever! The wall is festooned with a number of chrome-covered Bat Gadgets as seen in the movie, a Bat Cowl on display, and an impressive stalagmite base! And to extend the display flexibility of your future Batman statue, Prime 1 Studio has also included in total three different swappable right forearms! Switch out between a balled-up fist, a hand clutching a Batarang, or a hand gripping a Grapnel. Whichever you choose will only serve to make this statue even cooler looking!

Prime 1 Studio’s statue is a real premium product. I’m not talking about just the quality look, but the price tag, too. Depending on which version you go with, Batman will cost between $1,444.99 to $1,889.99. The Gadget Wall Display also commands a hefty sum. For the wall o’ props, that will be another $554.99.
I was in my teens when Batman Forever hit theatres. It was a departure from Tim Burton’s earlier films. Some of the aesthetic choices were cool, but it was drifting too far into the 1966 TV show’s style for my taste. I always felt that Jim Carrey was trying to play the Joker rather than the Riddler, ya know?
What are your thoughts on the sequels that followed Batman Returns? Campy goodness or rancid dribble? Let us know in the comments.
