Nice Review! I own this one along with the others... I wonder how many they are going to do in total...

b_c, don't quite follow you...it's the worst of the lot but the Bisley version is worse (you prefer it over the Bisley)?

This piece didn't really grab me the way the Rizzo (my fave) or the Bolland one did. I like how Batman isn't over muscles and appears far more athletic but, ont the whole, it just didn't work for me as well. And I'm a Kubert fan.

I was trying to say even the much maligned bisley version is better than this one, in my opinion. Don't worry, someone thought I said that I thought the bisley was the best!

next review I'll try to make sure to be more clear.

That's what I thought at first, but it reads that even the Bisley version is worse. I do think the Kubert one is better than the Bisley sculpt, IMHO.

Guess I'm the only one who likes the Bisley version, but the Risso is so far the best IMO also.

I like the bislye version too. IT grows on you, and is a great part of a set. I honestly love all these sculpts, its just that I was trying to be objective and not say

"its batman and its a statue, five outta five!"

They are all great, but I just think the bisley and kubert are bottom two.

Nice review. I disagree to a degree (I really like this one) but you still had some good points.

I like this sculpt too, but I'm trying to be objective.

I am glad you like it and are a fan though. I'm a big fan of it too.
