Unfortunately not but I think there's still a way to make it work if someone has a custom cape made. The 3 portraits that comes with the Black Suit also doesn't have the same keyhole with the Sculpt Cape either unfortunately. I was trying to use the bearded portrait for the Sculpt Cape and they don't fit.

I think this is a GREAT IDEA if you can find a painter who won't charge an arm and a leg to repaint it. I thought about the same thing when I got the Black Suit during Prime's Golden Sale last year. I currently own the Sculpt Cape but I also would like to have the Fabric Cape version since I really like some of the possibilities of making it flow however you like it.

Good luck to you on that Fabric Cape and if you find someone who'll customize a cape for your piece, please let us know because I would like one as well.

I have a custom cape on my black Supes now so I figure I can make it work. With that being said, I have never seen how the original cape attaches. I know it is completely different than the sculpted cape though. I bought a custom red fabric cape as well just in case I can’t get the original or I can’t get it to work.

Thanks. I?ll report back on how it goes. I have made a deal to swap one of my bearded portraits for one of the original portrait that came with the fabric edition. I just need the cape and the repaint.. I’ll be set.

Statues alright but you ain't got to do all that

Pose is what makes it sick

But head sculpts are its weakness

The eyes on this looks like he has a finger touching his nose and he's looking at it

And not to be offensive ....but he comes off a little Asian

Same thing with the unmasked hush batcave ....might just be me though

Still there will always be others

I know I owned it too.

Also if you already owned it how many people would say otherwise?

I had it and sell it because of the old look of the portraits.

The belt and the line between legs looked horrible to me.

I agree it's the pose and the body sculpt his better points.

Bruce Wayne portrait in batcave statue looks strange, it has an artificial look to me but Nightwing hush portraits (both) are incredible and the best one in the whole line beside Huntress.

Yeah on nightwing he looks good.

Batman hush is fantastic statue but the Bruce Wayne head

To me at least ... he looks a little too much like David uno from abc. No offense of course

I thought the same thing with hush Superman head too

But to each their own.... for hush sup though I did see a great head sculpt on it that reminded me of og premium format head sculpt. Told myself why couldn?t it of had that head sculpt.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

i considered this as well. I dabble in some miniature painting jobs here and there, but not sure how I feel about taking on a $1k+ statue piece.
