Looks great, like a comic cover in 3D. I'm fine with the characters choice, you can't put everyone...
What I don't like it's the fact that Bane is the only you can't see...and I don't like the price, too much asked for 1/6 diorama, it would be 3400€ here I'm sure...

It would be "acceptable" if XM finally propose installments payments like everybody already does...

This may be the most ambitious DC statue to date.

How that base will look painted is going to make or break this. I recognise the batcave reference and I assume the smoke is referencing a smoke bomb. Or is it fog/mist?

Could be Joker gas or Scarecrow gas and Batman is hallucinating.

I didn't think of that.

Wow, terrific concept and execution!

Price, especially here in Europe, will make me admire it from afar, though.

I like this idea.

No Black Mask though so I'm out (just joking).

The more I look at this, the more I want this. As others have said, the price is extreme BUT I have limited room left in my collection space so this could be the cherry on top of my collection - the final piece to a 12 year collection run. I think I need to see this painted before doing anything though. Hmm...

Not interested, but glad such a statue can exist.
I'm worried about the smokey base. I don't like like it is. Hopefully translucent resin will be the choice.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Gotham city sirens are also in there and Joker, Bane, and Two Face who are the top 5 Batman villains and were in the Dark Knight Triology.
Riddler really should be in there so they could get around it by including additional characters that you can choose to swap out dependent on your choice.

Maybe Hush as well as he is such a big part of recent Bats history. Personally not bothered if he's there or not though.

True, he is one of Batman's most iconic villains ever and should of been on here even if they had to cramm him in. I really like Clay face so I'm happy with that one. I would of replaced Manbat with Ra's, Killer Croc, Mad Hatter, or Solomon Grundy though. I can live without Riddler but this statue would of been perfect with him on it.

Nice! I think they said that this will be fully painted and shown at New York Comic Con next month.
