I think it's my favorite piece in the Sanctuary.

Yeah when I watched your video on it (and I really, really enjoy your videos) it was definitely a "wow" moment. It's just really cool that it can work both as a standard Batman and all the cool samurai switch out.

That's my concern (and my only concern) with this piece, but I decided to go with it because I think it's far and away the best 1/4 Batman. The new SS would have a smaller footprint, but I just don't $600 'like it'. I try to keep in mind that a lot of the width is just the cape and some of the depth is just his arm going forward with a grapple gun and grapple shooting out.

My idea is to just put it on a top shelf by himself with the shelf below having Harley/Joker and the shelf below that Mr Freeze/Catwoman.

It feels like it would be off for a 1:4 scale statue, but it could just depend on which angle it's being measured at. I could see ~24" in "Depth" if it was measured in this view from the end of the grappling gun to the back of the statue.

You know, this Batman is so good IMO that I'm considering not POing anymore 1/3s and switching to 1/4. I'm already getting the Flash to go with FP Batman, and would like to get Injustice 2 Brainiac and Darkseid. Plus there's that P1 1/5 stuff coming out eventually. I'm looking at my ginormous 1/3 boxes right now and thinking wtf am I doing, lol.

Reading the comments on this statue the main problem people have with it is the size of the cape. Some have wished there was an option for a fabric cape. Has Prime 1 ever commented about offering this option ? And at this stage, do you think there is a still a chance of getting a fabric cape ?

No I don't think it is a plausible option at this point, unless you had the sculpt customized after the fact.

I've come to not mind the cape at all as my favorite viewing angle is when your looking at the opposite side of the piece away from the cape and barely see it at all.

Piece looks amazing!

If someone is looking for a spot on comic book accurate Batman, can't go wrong.

So is this line dead? I know no Aquaman is in the works, but after Flash, WW, and Batman are released, what about other heroes and villains?

Hard to say but I think the lines done when they decided to not make new52 aquaman who had the best comic imo.

Prime 1 did tease Grail a while ago from the new52 but shes said to be 1/3 scale. As well with new52 Deathstroke and Harley which came out.

I would love for them to continue the new52 1/4 line. A new52 shazam would be perfect to come out right now but who knows.
