....back from viewing after CK's kind re-direction...

...Looks great, I like the look. But "vinyl"? I'm not sure about that. That sounds rather, "plastic-y." And no base, I presume?

Don't be fooled by the vinyl descript. The Koto stuff is awesome IMO. Probably won't appreciate in value like resin, but looks fantastic on display. Compare that sculpt to the Jim Lee DC direct one.

There is no comparison I own the jim lee one and it`s ok but the chin is off and the arm looks stiff and rigid(no jokes people) and his chest is huge.
This will be added to my collection looks very nice.

Yeah, I dont like the Jim Lee pieces at all. First and foremost, too small. Secondly, too cartoony looking. I dont care at all for statues made to copy a certain artist's style....not in the least (wouldn't keep one even it were a gift).

But to me "vinyl" sounds like they melted down a bunch of PVC pipe into a vat and then poured that into a bunch of molds. And again, I don't like the idea of there being no base. With all this in mind, this seems more like a $19.95 piece (which is probably 10x what it cost to make in China).

It has a black oval base ,but would indeed look nicer with some gotham architecture beneath his feet.
