I can't tell you how happy i am to see this!

I was SO close to buying the Sideshow version and didn't really want to get anything DC 1/4 but i loved it so much...so I'm so happy TH are doing him and it looks great from the initial sneak and should satisfy my scarecrow needs!

Also happy to see TH moving towards other characters in the bat family, fingers crossed for a Nightwing and Redhood...

Based on the art, this looks better than the Sideshow statue to me. The 1/4 one is too skinny.

Hope they do more Bat villains. 1/4 scale is to large for me for the bad guys.

That's part of what I like about the 1/10 Iron Studios line, much more reasonable to get a whole group of villains assembled and more likely for them to take the risk.

At some point I'll need to figure out between my 1/10, 1/6, and 1/4, but I'm not there yet. 1/6 is probably my ideal sweet spot for size, cost, and character availability.

Enlarged and lightened up. Looks to have a lot of cool details.

Sure seems like more complex bases are a big part of this new line.

Is there any kind of name for it or are we just rolling with non-SuperPowers?

I think it’s still just called the DC line?

I can definitely understand if he’s doing it some more modern versions of some characters but I still wish we would see some released under the SuperPowers line that had the look from what they had between like 1977 and 1985.

However if we do get versions of characters that normally aren’t done which are long time fan favorite versions I guess it really doesn’t matter if it says SuperPowers on it or not

I do agree definitely with this Scarecrow statue and the Poison Ivy statue the bases were pretty complex. However even the less complex basebis still seem to be a little dramatic which is not a bad thing. It’s how Bowen used to do it back whenever he first started and still did it for some statues but did eventually get down to a little bit more of a minimal base

Hopefully the SuperPowers fans get at least a few more. Wonder how the popularity is on those versions, though. It's too early for me, I only watched Super Friends in the early 90s when nothing else was on. Didn't circle back to that era of comics until much much later. Crisis was always such a daunting event that digging into the pre-Crisis continuity was just too big of a challenge.

Yep, I like the bases so far, complex and interesting but not like Prime 1 crazy big and busy.

I don't think you'll have to worry about that as long as they keep the line going. Batman's the big money maker.
