This is truly a unique and one-of-a-kind near mint object.
Not only rare by it being part of the first Reaper statues produced by Dark Horse in 2012/2013, but is also part of the Artist Proof run, limited to an edition size of 25 (compared to the 1000 made available to the general public).
Signed with a permanent non-acidic silver sharpie on the bottom of the base plate by Casey Hudson (Project Director), Mac Walter (Lead Writer), and Preston Watamaniuk (Lead Designer).

Email from Gentle Giants Studios about the A/P edition description:
- Thank you for contacting us. A/P stands for Artist Proof. Artist Proofs are generally valued higher than other Mini Busts within the edition, due to the rarity and small quantity of them. Oftentimes the Artist Proof are altered from the final edition, creating a uniqueness to them that is very desirable.

Dark Horse Product Description
https://www.darkhorse.com/Blog/1155/dh-deluxe-goes-big-mass-effect-reaper-replica
Dark Horse Deluxe announces a brand-new phase of collectibles inspired by one of the most highly decorated franchises in the history of games, Mass Effect™. The first collectible to introduce this series is a limited-edition, large-scale replica of the Reaper known as Sovereign, which will be on public display at the Dark Horse booth (#1528) at New York Comic Con. Set for release on June 26, 2013.
This 18.5” tall replica craft is the flagship of the rogue Spectre Saren Arterius. Responsible for leading a devastating attack on the Citadel in the original Mass Effect game, Sovereign is an enormous sentient dreadnought larger than two kilometers in length. The Dark Horse re-creation of Sovereign also has a sculpted base depicting a devastated city and planetary surface to convey its huge scale.
