I agree, also not much of a fan of the villain pieces thus far, but glad others like their purchases.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I can't see the villains being an "afterthought". Everything about them ranks up there with the best of the Batman B&W line, IMO. I get that the Jim Lee Joker is a matter of taste, but it is an excellent sculpt and representation of Lee's Joker. Personally, I would have preferred it be based on someone else's artwork, but it still turned out well.
The Penguin looks fantastic. There are no signs of laziness or that this thing was just thrown out there.
There is an easy way to make this line "Batman only" - don't buy the villains. I don't think they have to not produce them in order to solve that issue. There are still plenty of Batman B&W statues on the way, it seems.
Personally, at this point, I would love more villains.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

The B&W line got long in the tooth for me. Great sculpts of artist's rendering...but how many Batmen do I need..especially in black and white?
I think the villains look good too, but I'm passing because they are B&W. I'd love a good Penguin - heck I'd buy all the Batman villains..if they were only in color.
Why is there not a DC line for villains only? There is such a wealth to pull from.

It is nice but I stopped buying Batmans, the size of these little guys does not deserve the rise in price that they have experienced.
Joker and Penguin got me back in the line but probably I would buy a Cat woman, Mr Freeze and Riddler and stop there.
