That is exactly the license restriction...these cannot be too close to the traditional comic look, or someone complains.

I believe the restrictions are by DC. Sideshow has no pull as to what is sold outside of North America. XM's 1/4 Marvel pieces are all comic based. For whatever reason, XM doesn't have a 1/4 comic based DC license.

The first Batman was NOT a worldwide piece. The license was upgraded after he was released.

eh i dunno, even if you look past the fang things on the mask opening the whole rest of the statue is a hard sell for "comic batman" imo

I agree with you on the new one. It looks nice and, I'm sure, is superbly detailed, but it does not say Batman to me the way the first one does.

Yes, you can order it from XM’s site, but distributors will also have it.
