New member here. I pre-ordered this. It looks fantastic and I am also eager to see some in hand pics. Hope it is released soon. I also pre-ordered the Knightmare Joker and I will probably get Knightmare Batman as well.

I'm really looking forward to the whole line. But I NEED Knightmare Batman. Post some photos when your Supes arrives!

Just saw some images pop up on Facebook groups...
1st in-hand pics from Chinese collectors..
Oh dear... If this is the production piece.. this is NOT looking good at all. It looks terrible. Especially the headsculpt looks elongated and weird.. Black paint looks washed out..

But I hope this is just a case of a bad photo taken. Shall wait for more in-hand pics first.

Fingers crossed. Nearly every statue I've had from Snyders DCEU has had to be repainted.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

I remember having the same knee-jerk reaction to cancel the order when I saw P1 52 Batman but glad I didn't because its my favorite Batman 1/4 Statue (excluding Samurai Line)

The first pics from King Ghidorah from Spiral Studio on the other hand crushed me. He looked good but the portraits were a major downgrade. I went on their group and gave the feedback (looks good but really sloppy portrait) and they kicked me out.

I'll wait for at least some better pictures but not gonna lie, a little nervous.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

You can never trust these first in hand pics by Chinese collectors as number 1, they are taken with potatoes for cameras, and number 2, these could be recasts for all we know.

I'll wait for real pictures before making any judgments.
