What makes you say that? I'd guess it's simply a money grab after they saw how quickly ver 1 sold out. This way they can do second editions of both ver 1 and ver 2 (white bases) if need be. Cha ching! $$$

Of course his risen arm makes him higher overall, but from cowl-to-cowl, it's not that big of a difference,
based on that comparison pic. Or maybe my eyesight really is just getting worse by the minute...
The size difference is dramatic. My wooden bookshelves can be adjusted, so I’ve got all my Batman B&Ws (about 20 of them) on one shelf at a height that I adjusted and set for them. This one won’t fit at that shelf’s height. He’s a full head above the rest.

I say that due to the delays with ver 1 and some companies receiving them and others still waiting.

They're slow. Will probably stay at "processing" for a week before it's sent out. You're lucky though. Mine is still in "Pre-order" status.

I think this is absolutely what happened. But if they can make some money and pay a few bills while maybe not laying off more employees, more power to them. And further, some collectors get some stuff they really want. All good. I hope they can do a dozen versions of the statue if the market demand is there.

Does anyone know what the last Batman Black and White will be? I know the Jim Lee v. 3 just shipped and there are likely 3 more coming next month, but I think everything beyond that is cancelled?
