I received mine today and i am very happy with it!

Since its my first (and probably only) Batman B&W statue, i really don't have any way of comparing sizes.

But the sculpt is superb (This Cape!! ) and the paintjob looks very clean!

Grats to all the other buyers - you got a winner there

Thanks for the pic, Josh!

Hmm, it's probably the angle, but i really seem to miss the big size difference statuewise.
Of course his risen arm makes him higher overall, but from cowl-to-cowl, it's not that big of a difference,
based on that comparison pic. Or maybe my eyesight really is just getting worse by the minute...

The smaller statue is in the foreground so that make a bit of a difference. I'll see if I can take one on an even plain. The McFarelane is a good head taller than the previous black and whites at his head, which he's bowing, and the billowing cape makes him quite a bit wider and deeper as well.

Even though I won’t display it, I’ll be picking up the Mignola Gaslight Batman.

Why won't you display it? He looks amazing.

Currently, space issues. I have the 2nd edition of the first Mignola B&W and the 1/6 version of it as well. Hoping they do the same with this new Mignola piece. I’m slowly transitioning to a Batman centered display though and moving my office to another room in the house. When all the stars line up I’ll have all my Batman stuff out.

I get it, my shelves are getting pretty packed too.

Sorry for the delay on this, here's The McFarlane on an even plane with the Bolland so you can see the actual size difference.

Got mine in, this piece is rad. Looks like a step up QC-wise from some of their recent pieces as well. Mine had a bit of gray smudging (kind of like dust) on the dark bits but it was easily fixed with an eraser.
