I'm familiar with Metroid and the iconic Samus Aran but don't consider myself a fan. However when I first became aware of this statue I instantly was smitten with the amazing eye catching color and metallic sheen of her Zero Suit and her stunning athletic powerfull feminine physique. Not to mention her detailed realistic gorgeous face and flowing hair. I short, Metroid fan or not this statue is just simply amazing in so many ways that at the current re-run price here on TOM, makes it an overwhelmingly easy purchase and a wonderful addition to any collection.
