Berserk - Skull Knight Statue by Prime 1 Studio

Terminator knight from da fewchuh.
Iz dis da haus of Joan of Ark?
Come wit me if yoo want to cleave!

It's gorgeous...

Another amazing piece by them but man, you must really love the anime/manga to be splashing this much.

^That's a given, no doubt.

With that said, this price tag is consistent with larger (this thing is pretty enormous and has options for displaying) high-end pop-culture/fantasy/superhero statues. Visit many LCS's and you could easily see a few Iron Studios, Prime 1, XM Studios, and even some Bowen Designs fetching comparable rates. I think Iron Studios: Xmen vs Sentinel statue is around $1700, stands at roughly the same height, and doesn't feature led lighting - however, to be fair, it's more of a diorama than a single statue; that thing is a beast.

In any event, these items are rightfully considered fine art and even appreciate in value over time. And in an effort to not gloss over the validity of your point: while I consider myself an inveterate Berserk fan, there are many other things I'd drop a G and change on before this. But that doesn't make this Skull Knight any less of a marvel.
