I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I can't believe the emblem got fixed. So glad I didn't cancel now.

I just couldn't be happier with how this piece turned out. IMO they picked the absolute perfect shade of blue and I just love the painting/shading that goes from blue to grayish/black. It just makes his gloves, cape and cowl look so much more dynamic, especially in regards to the cape.

Original PF



Modern PF





I really can't emphasize enough just how cool that shading from blue to greyish black really looks on this piece. Not to mention, I think the alternate portrait turned out much nicer with the Modern Batman:





With the original PF, the alternate portrait makes him look like he is frowning, while the Modern alternate portrait is just a more serious, stern like look. Definitely prefer the alternate portrait on the Modern version better.

And again, while I was a bit worried about the Batman symbol, those worries have been 100% allieviated. I think the Batman symbol on his chect looks great.



All in all, this is by far one of my favorite Batman statues produced to date.

A big to Sideshow on this one!!!

I'm very happy it seems that they addressed two issues I had on the first one. The armpits and shorts both appear to be better on this one.

Now I just need a new utility belt. This one doesn't do it for me.

If this had been fully sculpted it would be THE Batman to own. Maybe a third variant will be...

Blue bats shipped! And please no third variant repaint again. This is good enough. Blue is way better than the first sad face bats. Just wished blue would come with two COH. Maybe I can repaint the first heads to add to this one? Hmmmm,,, but how would I sell the first bats with no heads? Errr... Wished ss could have just gave us this head for the first one.

I was in total agreement and was right with you until I began thinking aobut it. The only benefit to fully sculpted on this would be his body and shorts as everything else is polystone.

Someone could take off the fabric, custom some shorts and add paint but how much benefit would there really be? I think Sideshow even painted the fabric.

No lol. You guys want to make it that easy for SS? How about another sculpt if they're going to do a fully sculpted version. I prefer sculpted too but having 20,000 versions of the same sculpt is not appealing to me at all.
