Thanks for the review! Good as always!! I own both of your shown Ivy's too and I will also keep both statues, the exclusive from 2020 and the green variante. Greetings from Germany
I have the same previous green skinned Ivy with exclusive portrait! Its a great piece minus where her feet mesh into the base. Wednesday I have the normal flesh skinned Ivy coming in. Looking forward to comparing them. Though I'm tempted to just keep both
Hey Jeff, man you covered so much I had to comment again (sorry 😅). Your comparisons were AMAZING! She looked stunning next to Swamp Thing but the fact that you showed her next to the older Ivy (that's the one I have) and the PF Batman was genius! And I agree 100%, that Batman fits so well with Sideshow's new run of rogues. I felt the same way when I saw the new Batgirl PF. She's absolutely stunning! Her suit seems to fit so well with that PF Batman. I'm not sure if they have another stand alone (modern) Batman PF planned but this guy still seem to hold up in my opinion.
Thanks for the review. I have green Ivy arriving next week. Like you, I also have the previous Ivy, and was waiting to get both in-hand so I could decide which one to keep. Looking at your comparison, I definitely prefer the green paint of the new vs the old.
Deadly Nature blows away the other one in every single aspect in my book. I think this Ivy in both versions would look the best with the one Batman PF that was done in blue with the sculpted cape perched on the tall gargoyle base. I think it was the second Batman PF they did.
Thanks for the video Jeff. I have the same green Ivy on pre order. And thanks for showing the box. I’m always interested to see the size of the box for storage. Also love that Batman. One of my favorite statues. It’s the best 1:4 scale Batman in my opinion.
As always a very good and honest review mister 👍👏👏. I'm sorry for the chip, I hope that Sideshow have a replacement for you, but you are right the rest of her face is beautiful. She will fit in nicley with the new Batgirl. I'm pretty sure that a darker and more edgy Harley is just around the corner to complete this line up.
Looks great! Sucks about the damage though, hopefully they have a replacement head. The last 2 sideshow statutes I had problems with they wanted me to send back the whole thing, instead of just replacing the parts. I’ll have 3 sideshow Ivy’s now, and I’m not gonna sell any of them!
Hi nice statue of poison ivy. I have an idea if you’re not able to get a replacement for your chipped statue which you could do is pay a professional painter to paint over where the statue is chipped at to cover up the chip
I like both but I prefer the regular skin version because with this particular statue it looks like she is transforming into the green skin. So with that transition you get the best of both worlds lol
Nice video, thanks for the owrk. I also have the "Green Variant" on order. On the head sculpt damage; is there a matching chip from the face somewhere in the foam packing? That may help when you contact Sideshow.
Sucks about the portrait but maaaan she’s beautiful!! Perfect companion to the amazing XM swamp thing. Congrats Jeff! Hope the portrait thing works out for you. 🤙🏼
Overall I like it but the colors of the tree and ivy are a little monotone. But she is beautiful. I stoll have not gotten an ivy. Still waiting for a 10/10
Thanks for the review! Your channel is really helpful for new(ish) collectors like myself who have limited space. If you don't mind me asking, what kind of floating shelf is that in the background where Zatanna, Huntress, etc are displayed?
I'm very tempted to buy this piece (collector's version). I have the previous release and really like it but, man, this one is so pretty. Strangely enough I do like the regular skin version more. I usually go green when it comes to Ivy but there's something about the regular version that's so darn appealing. But you can't go wrong with this one either. I'm sorry about the portrait. Hopefully they had a replacement for you.
Bummer about the portrait; hope you get a replacement asap! If I hadnt instantly jumped on the classic Ivy that was shown prior to this I would have definitely gotten this one since Im a sucker for more modern + darker takes on characters. And now with the reveal of the new Batgirl who very much fits this aesthetic, I feel like this is the direction SS will be going for this new wave/line of Batman characters.
To me all the new statues seems to be going back to the same design or take as the Batman that was on the arkham head stone. It’s like the went light with the Catwoman holding the jewel and the Ivy before this one but now they seem to be going back with this new Ivy and the new batgirl
So did Sideshow have a replacement portrait for you? Curious as my variant is still on the way across the country and I’m very nervous about damage in transit.
Ugh, sorry 'bout that chipped head. Weird spot too as usually it's a tip of the hair. Hope SS can fix ya up. Even though she's swaddled in a seaweed wrap, def like the newer one over the older, yellowish one. Great art direction on placing her next to Swamp Thing. Funny, 'cause at the beginning of the review I was tellin' myself, "I hope he pairs her there" and ya did!
1st. It depends on what you are looking for. If you prefer the Deadly Nature Ivy then sell the old one. However, the if you prefer the old Poison Ivy PF, then you have to question why you bought the new one? If Poison Ivy is one of your favorite rogue characters, I would not sell. If she not, you should sell one.
Great Poison Ivys, but I hate that Premuim Format Batman. Ever since Jim Lee hit the scene, people have been drawing and sculpting Batman with enormous hands, thighs and feet, like stuffing Ben Grimm into a Batman suit. Sideshow's finishes are fantastic, but they're often in need of a good art director to ride herd over their sculptors to make sure their proportions are somewhere in the ballpark. All the fancy icing in the world won't fix a lopsided cake.
Thanks for the review! Good as always!! I own both of your shown Ivy's too and I will also keep both statues, the exclusive from 2020 and the green variante. Greetings from Germany
Looks great, that combo next to Swamp Thing just looked perfect to me. Thanks for the review, I’m excited for a room tour!
Great review as always! This is my favorite Sideshow Ivy, I'll begetting mine soon. Looking forward to the room tour.
Wow she pairs really well with that Swampy.
Awesome review Jeff, I was thinking of picking this one up simply cause of the art, it's beautiful imo
I have the same previous green skinned Ivy with exclusive portrait! Its a great piece minus where her feet mesh into the base. Wednesday I have the normal flesh skinned Ivy coming in. Looking forward to comparing them. Though I'm tempted to just keep both
Beautiful piece. Keep this. Congrats
Green is my oldest son’s favorite color! Poison Ivy makes me green with envy!
Sideshows service is like none other so a replacement won’t be a problem. Congrats on the pick up her turnaround time was awesome. Thanks for sharing!
I just hope they have a replacement portrait!
@@thesecretsanctuary For you Jeff I guarantee it 😎 Positive vibes
I got green too. Coming on Monday.

Really nice piece and paint seems really good love the tint's of purple in the base

Uggh, that's brutal! Hopefully you get a new one!
I have the OG Ivy she's stunning, the new one is stunning as well and goes well with Batman.
I like that previous Ivy more, I hadn't seen it before and I prefer her more sultry look. The newer one has a more dynamic base though
Beautiful piece ❤❤❤
On the waitlist for the variant hope I can get it!!!
Thanks for the video Jeff. I have the same green Ivy on pre order. And thanks for showing the box. I’m always interested to see the size of the box for storage. Also love that Batman. One of my favorite statues. It’s the best 1:4 scale Batman in my opinion.
beautiful statue. more swamp thing than HQ/PI. congrats. - sorry about the chipped paint issue.
Beautiful piece. I like this one much more then the last SS Ivy throne piece. That base is awesome. Hope they get you a replacement portrait soon.
Keep both, new is good but the older is still my fav SS ivy.
she looks amazing
As always a very good and honest review mister 👍👏👏. I'm sorry for the chip, I hope that Sideshow have a replacement for you, but you are right the rest of her face is beautiful.

She looks stunning next to swamp thing. That’s where I’d display her. Oh and keep this version over pea soup ivy.
Nice video, thanks for the owrk. I also have the "Green Variant" on order. On the head sculpt damage; is there a matching chip from the face somewhere in the foam packing? That may help when you contact Sideshow.
Definitely prefer the new one.
Thanks for the review Jeff!
I have the old one love her too much to sell
Hope you get a replacement I just preordered HUSH SKIN color Ivy off SIDESHOW

Both versions are excellent. I had a hard time deciding.
That is a bummer on the portrait. She looks great otherwise. Congrats! I think this is a lot better than the pea green soup version.

Yes, it should arrive tomorrow.
Jeff are you going to give us a room tour?
Yes. Very soon!

Jokes on you Jeff, there is no QC with Sideshow statues HA HA HA!
keep both

However, the if you prefer the old Poison Ivy PF, then you have to question why you bought the new one? If Poison Ivy is one of your favorite rogue characters, I would not sell. If she not, you should sell one.
The old one is much more feminine, the new one is nice but lacks that appeal imho.
