The sculpt itself looks great but not fan of the paint job and texturing they added... This is the case of simple is better...

XM Studios News

"Batman 1:6 Iconic Cover Art is a new XM line where we release 1:6 Batman statues based on iconic cover art of Batman comics throughout the years. To celebrate 80 years of Batman, we are rolling out Batman: Hush! Inspired by the cover art for Batman: Hush Vol 2 in the early 2000s. This is definitely a must-have to add to your Batman collection.

Size matters, but Quality even more so! The new XM DC 1:6 line is specially designed for collectors who desire more space-friendly collectibles, without compromising on the incredible details and quality of larger collectible pieces. At 1:6 scale, XM's creative direction is to showcase more abilities, powers and essence of the characters in a bold, dynamic and story telling style. The new XM 1:6 DC line will amaze you with the details you don't expect at this scale. Smaller scale, smaller boxes, more affordable shipping and pricing means you can fit more of these incredibly detailed collectibles into your collection!

About Batman: Hush “In this story of murder, mystery and romance, Batman sets out on a simple mission to discover the identity of the mysterious villain wreaking havoc in his life known as Hush.”."

I wish that because XM was going for the cover, they would have done entire graveyard that is in the sketch. Add the larger stone in the back to give the statue some height...it might help show how tall Batman is. The base feels incomplete to me.

Batman himself looks nice. Shape and proportions are solid. I think the head position changed from the sneaked image to final as Bats is looking more straight on? And like others said, the texturing on the suit is just too much. This isn't Affleck Movie Batman. Jim Lee's HUSH Batman was alll smooth and sleek. I'm not sure why such an unnecessary change was made.

With the other "iconic covers", are they all just Batman? Or would be possibly get a duo OR a villain cover?

I´m honest the pictures from above are bad. Just in front would be enough.

I’ve decided the texturing doesn’t bother me as much as the wrong colors in the suit/belt for the Hush storyline.

That yellow square is jarring. My eyes go straight to it and it’s clearly nothing special to look at.

Batman, himself, looks great.
