You know, every time SS does something like Thor: Breaker of Brimstone, where everything is damn near perfect, they do a Bats vs Supes. Sculpt is great, costumes are great but scale is not what I want and concept is odd.

I'm guessing here, but I guess everyone else is, too. I'll say $750. They kept Hulk/Wolvie at a reasonable price. Two years later, this one won't be that low, but maybe not crazy high, either.
Maybe more? Why use literally BOTH of the Flagship names in one piece...

to ask the most money possible for a 1/5 scale piece.

The same could be said for Hulk/Wolvie, recreating one of the most iconic covers of the Bronze Age. But, of of course, the price is anyone's guess at this point.

Thor has the same problem this one does. Fabric cape. Ruined an otherwise perfect statue. Fabric has all the problems I mentioned earlier, plus kicks it down from awesome work of art to expensive looking toy. Just my opinion of course. Thor would have been an instant order for me, but now I won't be getting it at all. This one either.

Leaked photo from setup at comic con. Looks very good in the picture. I wish I knew how to sculpt and paint because this would be perfect for customizing into two separate dioramas.

If Batman is sporting a Kryptonite ring might I suggest he use something bigger against Superman such as Kryptonite knuckles?



Aint no Green Lantern ring if Batman aint sporting a Lantern costume and punching Superman with it means a busted up hand.

Or a Kryptonite baseball bat?



I just can't take this concept seriously.

MARTHAAA!!!

I would definitely pose the statue so I can see Batman more. It has Superman base, I would have preferred neutral ground base. It looks more like a Superman statue.

Isn't Supes essentially defeated in this dio ?

I'm no expert on DC or their past fights but with Supes being so close to that Kryptonite ring isn't he weakened to the state of a normal human ? And so fighting against Bats in close quarters combat like this he has no chance.

It is a nice looking dio though, loving the classic Supes, I hope it's a hit as there is so much future potential in these VS dio's (Spidey VS Doc Ock please ).
