If we are talking about mass produced pieces and not commissins then my vote goes for the Ross Batman.

As far as licensed stuff the original DC Bowen Gargoyle one. A close second or 1A is the Koto one.

Again, if we are going with only licensed my vote is for the DC Classic Confrontations Batman VS. Killer Croc diorama. Best DC Direct statue in a long time. The Koto Batman would be #2.

For my money, Randy Bowen's Batman on the gargoyle is the best of all of them.

Koto for me but I've been waiting for a 1/6 scale resin piece for a long time.

Look out for #1. Don't step in #2 either.

You know, I used to agree with this, then I picked one up off eBay (to go with the DC Dynamics). From some angles the statue looks great, absolutely perfect and resembles, at times, Neal Adams' Batman. However, from other angles it's clear that the neck is way too long and very oddly shaped and just looks awful.

So I still feels it's a very nice statue and I like it quite a bit, but after owning one, I can't say anymore that it's the best Batman statue produced. I'd say that the Koto one is superior even though the materials used are inferior.

Hard to pick just one Batman statue that is the best.

Here are some pics I took of 4 personal favorites from my collection. All very different interpretations of the character.

Classic Confrontations: Batman Vs Killer Croc



Batman: The Dark Knight Returns - with Robin removed & then repainted to look more comic accurate.



Warner Bros. Batman The Animated Series Maquette



Warner Bros. Batman Beyond Maquette
