I'm quite optimistic, that this will be more accurate than their 89 Batman.

Hopefully, another sculptor will do the 92 Keaton as well.
Maybe with a torn cowl head as exclusive.. wishful thinking..

I disagree.

I don't think this movie is for a specific age group

I watched it on vhs when I was about 6 or 7 years old and I was blown away by it. As an adult, I rediscovered the film and saw new things, which is how it should be, I think.

Don't underestimate kids. The brain is almost fully developed in the young age of 7 years.

They might or might not fully understand everything, but on a deeper level, the foreconscious level, if you like, they get it somehow.

It can only look more accurate at a larger scale.

Trevor Grove really outdid himself with that Pfeiffer (both head sculpt and naturalistic pose), and paint apps seem to be great on that piece. Can't wait to have that one.

I don't know if Sideshow also got Trevor to do this —that'd be great, though Will Harbottle would also do—, but I'm just moderately excited about this announcement. Years of SSC's WTF pose choices, lackluster paint apps (especially in the face department) and stupidly googly eyes will do that to you. (That's not always the case, mind you, they do have their hits, but I've had my share of those occurrences and it leaves you rather jaded.)

Unless they pull a Chris Reeve PF, though, I'll most probably be buying it, so I guess I'll have three Michelles - bear in mind Kira from Prime 1 also hinted at a 1:3 version, and they should be using translucent resin.

Without those two films, Nolans Batman (which I am sure you hail as a masterpiece) wouldn't have a leg to stand on.

The 1989 Batman was a frenzy never seen before when it came to superhero movies
While what you say is true, about it being a frenzy before the film came out. What you said about Nolans films not gaving a leg to stand can be said about the Keaton films and Superman the movie. If Superman the movie hadn't started the Superhero movie trend, granted the sequels were less well recieved, there wouldn't have been a clamoring for other Superhero films like the 89 Batman.

Funny thing is I remember all the stuff that happened right around the 89 film but, even though they weren't Superhero films. A film going and marketing frenzy had really started after E.T. E.T. was friggin every where. I was three, I cried at the of the film. The next film I saw that for was Return Of The Jedi. Then the 89' Batman. I remember these things because I remember watching each film in the theater at a young age and wanting all the cups and toys and movie tie-ins.

So was it really Batman 89' or was it just the way large budget films were marketed? I can't say it changed the movie going experience either. Star wars and other films had already done that.

Nostalgia factors in a lot here, when it comes to the 89' film. I saw it in theaters at the age of 10. Blew me away...at 10. But dont't blame someone for seeing the imperfections in the film. Because its far from perfect. Returns even less so.

So yeah, he might be young, but his opinion is valid.

I may stick with Tweeterhead unless there is a wild-haired HS with this one.
