XM Studios NEW Batman on a horse 1/4

[Kerry Masbrata]

The price maybe will be near Hulkbuster

as im said, i hate the mechanical part, it has to be an organical horse.
upper part is ok as armor, lower part has to show legs of a real horse.

My only hope (and fear) is that the original does not become even more expensive once the girls are released.

I like them both and I’m glad they made them different enough. With the horse it’s going to be a lot of money and take up a lot of space, that will be the main issue here for me.

I've never been into multiverse stuff so I'm positive it's because I have no connection but as a fan of sculpture in general I've been impressed by this entire line. These are the type of pieces that make me question if I'm more of a comic fan or a statue fan. I'm the former but great pieces sometimes make me feel differently.

I guess I like off-kilter takes on a character. I recently sold my SS Modern Thor, but I really like the Caleb Nefzen Thor that XM is working on.

Love this! I actually like the mechanical legs of the horse. Makes it seem like Batman thought of all aspects of protection.

The design of this statue is amazing but I really don't see batman when I look at this. I just see a Samurai

While I won't buy it either way -- I concur. Actual horse would look better, easier to paint/cast, and makes more sense than a robotic horse. No other statue in the series has a robotic component. Catwoman's motorcycle is the most machine we have seen. Why is Batman now running around on a mechanical horse?!

Its because most of those someones magically became Batman fans long after Batman Begins was released on DVD and then became the biggest Batman fans in the world in 2008 when The Dark Knight released in theaters. Comic is the only style of Batman those someones can relate to because of the Nolan films. And I can bet anything those same someones don't even read comics. They just use them for a cool display.
