The best Batman statue?

Ive always primarily been a Marvel fan but after playing the brilliant Arkham Asylum it has reignited my interest in Batman.

What Batman statues do collectors recommend, i would like to own a great Bat statue but dont know of many.

To be clear, the piece he mentioned isn't a resin statue. It's a vinyl (plastic) statue.

I would say this is the definitive batman. imho.

and there was also a joker done to match.

Both done in pure bronze, and both ridiculously limited. privat commissions, I believe. If you're comitted, I say save up, and comission one of your very own. I think what you have in your mind will always be 'the best' version of anything. just have too find the artist that can help you translate your vision. it worked for george lucas.

I have to say that Paquet's Batman is definitely in another league with everything else produced, there is no comparison.
The other one that I like is the Koto Batman but like mentioned before it is vinyl.
So far I don't think there is a definitive Batman statue that has been made for any of the major companies yet.

Also to be clear, the quality of the look and styling is excellent. it's 11.5" tall and the same wide

Averones Batman is the best one I've seen.
I'm still waiting for a good 1/4 scale Batman, though.
