Some news at last. The Dark Horse Solicits for April are now out and the one Avatar item on the list is the solicit for the upcoming Aang statue that we saw in unpainted prototype form a while back.
It is 8 and 1/4 inches tall, will retail for 79.99 dollars and is coming out June 22nd 2016.
Overall it is a nice statue of Aang, though not perfect, something about the expression on Aang's face just seems a bit off to me. As I have said before I would much prefer Dark Horse to put their efforts into much more affordable physical representations of the Avatar characters. This I am sure will be exactly the item some fans are looking for, but big statues like this are not for everyone.
It is definitely interesting to reflect on this Dark Horse Avatar Merch line now from what it was set up to be, we were promised multiple plushes and figurines as well as stuff like playing cards and more. The focus right now seems to be on expensive statues rather than anything else. So overall I feel the Dark Horse Deluxe Avatar line has been a big disappointment so far.
