Cool

I don't own any DC sculpts yet and I think Batman should be my first.

Don't worry Superstatues! I am making no purchases this week or next, I think?!

Most likely not

I happen to like this statue. I think it's a really good version of Batman.

Here are a couple of pics of mine.

GREAT piece, but people really need to stop calling it a STATUE, because its not!

It's made of PVC and the definition of a "statue" is a three-dimensional form, or likeness, sculpted, modeled, carved, or cast in material such as stone, clay, or bronze.

This piece as we all know, obviously is none of the above.

Hey, is this being a bit picky? sure, but i'm a stickler for specified details

I own this one and it was my favorite, right up until I saw what Mr. Allison did with the Batman.

Actually you are wrong on this. The only difference between this PVC Batman and your definition of statue is the obvious that it is casted in PVC/plastic and not of stone, clay, bronze, or resin. But other than that I see no difference between the two. It is in 3-D form and I bet the original was sculpted of typical sculpting materials before the mold was made. I don't own this one, but judging from the Superman of the same maker/sculptor, I bet this Batman is in solid PVC.

Not to be a dick, but actually i'm FACTUALLY correct about this, sorry to burst your cerebral bubble.

It is NOT produced to "statue specs" and is therefore NOT a statue by DEFINITION...there IS no debate about this, just ego

It`s a PVC statue of Batman and I like it more than any "statue" of Batman i`ve seen.
If I melt it it`s a melted PVC statue of Batman.
