XM Studios NEW Batman on a horse 1/4

I'm not feeling this one at all, I'm not crazy about the pose of the horse or that it's mechanical....

No and its a damn shame because they were well underway on many 1/4 DC statues before the license had to be forcibly changed.

And I hate to say but they had a Hawkman that was destined to become an all time great statue. No joke! Maybe they will still make it in 1/6? It would be great in this scale as well.

Anyway, Shogun Bats looks great, and I get that it’s a creative take on the character. This one just isn’t for me. I do hope that it’s not the last 1/4 Bats we see from XM.

ummm... David Finch's Sanity?

Yep, it’s nice. It’s also 1/6 scale and costs more than my first car.

It wouldn't surprise me if these 1:6 DC statues designs were originally for their 1:4 line before DC changed their mind

To be fair, the paint app was XMs decision and it wasn't any license agreement that made them go with a robotic horse.

Actually, it's a cybernetic horse. How else "Shogun" Batman is going catch up with Catwoman on a high tech motorcycle? The horse looks awesome just maybe darker armours instead of the bronzed coloured armours. This Shogun Batman is one of the popular statues at the convention.

If you want a classic Batman, only classic will do. This line is not for you. This a Japanese theme based in a dystopian future with "some "similarities to the original characters. I prefer the big shoulder pads and swords on the original Samurai Batman better than his classic look.

Isn’t that a darker paint app on the horse? It looks kinda nice.
