Prime 1 Studio has opened pre-orders for the Batman vs Clayface (Deluxe Bonus Version) Quarter Scale Statue, a Batman piece built from a Jim Lee variant cover. It costs $2,995 and is expected to ship between May 2028 and October 2028. I’ll say up front: this is the most mud I’ve ever wanted in a living room.
The Batman vs Clayface (Deluxe Bonus Version) Quarter Scale Statue is a 1:4 scale polystone statue made by Prime 1 Studio as part of its Ultimate Premium Masterline. It is based on Jim Lee’s variant cover for Batman – One Bad Day and stands 32.67 inches (83 cm) tall with the base. It is priced at $2,995 and is expected to ship from May 2028 to October 2028.
A Jim Lee Cover You Can Walk Around
The source is the One Bad Day story where Basil Karlo heads back to Los Angeles under a new identity, still chasing an acting career. Jim Lee drew the clash head-on, and Prime 1 kept that framing: Clayface surging forward, Batman braced against him with everything he has. I like that they didn’t smooth out Lee’s linework to make it more realistic, because those hard, stylized forms are the whole reason the cover works.
Clayface Gets the Wet Look
The paint is the part I keep coming back to. Prime 1 is going for a wet, still-moving finish on Clayface, with countless faces pushing out of his body, which is exactly the right nightmare for a failed actor who can be anyone. Add LED eyes and mouth, and he reads less like a sculpture and more like something that just crawled out of a storm drain. The power method is still listed as TBD, so you may need batteries or a USB cable once that’s settled.
Batman Holding the Line
Batman gets a desperate expression, a costume textured to read as fabric, and a Batarang stuck in the muddy base like he already lost one throw. The volume contrast does the storytelling: a dense, compact hero against a mass of mud that keeps spreading. That’s the same scene-first thinking you see in Sideshow’s Premium Format pieces, though Prime 1 leans harder into paint effects than most.
What the Deluxe Bonus Adds
Batman gets clenched-teeth and shouting heads, plus the bonus oxygen-mask head with his rebreather and a head stand to park the spares. Clayface swaps between three left hands: grabbing, spike and hammer. The hammer pushes the height to 35 inches (89 cm), so measure your shelf before you pick a favorite. With base and bonus parts, it all weighs 110.45 lbs (50.1 kg), and it may arrive in multiple boxes.

The Collector’s Survival Guide: How to Justify This
The Collector Math: Clayface can turn himself into anyone in Gotham, so this isn’t just Batman and Clayface for $2,995. It’s Batman plus every single person in Gotham City for $2,995. Divide by the population and it’s basically free.
How to tell your wife: You’ve been asking me to hang that bathroom shelf since we moved in, and I kept saying I didn’t have the right tool. This $2,995 Clayface comes with three swappable left hands, and one of them is literally a hammer. That shelf goes up between May and October 2028.
How to tell your parents: Dad, you always said acting wasn’t a real career. Clayface started out as Basil Karlo, a movie actor who couldn’t get work and ended up as a pile of mud fighting Batman. I’m displaying 83 centimeters of proof you were right.
How to tell your kids: You can look at Clayface all you want, but he’s made of clay, and clay keeps every fingerprint that touches it. Standing right next to him is Batman, the World’s Greatest Detective. He already has your prints on file.
The wet paint and those LED eyes give this one a real reason to exist beyond being big, and the rebreather head is a smart nod for longtime Batman readers. If you have the floor space for 35 inches of hammer-armed mud and can wait until mid-2028, I think it earns its spot.
