Prime 1 Studio: Batman v Superman - 1:2 Batman

[Toaster]

I have issues with this on multiple levels that are beyond Prime 1's control, mainly the fact that Ben Affleck got cast to play Batman (terrible choice IMO) and the costume itself is just downright awful. At least I'll be able to save money here...

Prime 1 listen closely: Please don't consider future half scale pieces based off the sales of this figure. I love half scale and would like to see more but I think more people would buy sweaters in Mexico in July than this Batman statue. (Yes, that was a Three Amigos reference.)

I don't mind Affleck as an actor, but I don't like how he looks in the Bat suit. I have the same reaction looking at this statue that I have when looking at the trailer. Something about the shape of his face looks a bit goofy in that mask.

I don't mind at all, the worn out, ragged look of Afleck on Batman. Every Batman adaptation so far in the movies has had a unique feature never presented before.

The Miller influence is very evident in DoJ, i don't think it's bad looking because the Batfleck costume isn't so sleek and stylish. The bulky and beefed up countenance works great for the film's spirit.

The P1 Batman is below par, here are some fotos i've found in comic conventions, of how much better it could turn out

Hot Toys looks worse:

I don't care for these 1:2 at all. The 1:3 stuff is OUTSTANDING, but these don't resonate with me for some reason.

Afflecks costume does look odd on him, they've just tried to bulk someone who is not naturally bulky to fit Millers Batman look.

The third photoshopped pic looks better for Affleck.
