Not a fan. I think the cape looks terrible, the muscles look weird, and the colours seem too dark.. I dont know, I just think there's better scupts out there...

I think it looks great. Is it vinyl or resin or cold cast?

My question too, Pogo. I think Koto is usually vinyl.

Only problem I have with it is the nasty looking ends of the cape. Just doesn't look right, IMO.

Usually, except their Batman statues in this style (Batman/Catwoman, Batman on Gargoyle, Batman with Joker base) have all been cold cast, I think, but not vinyl. Some of this particular sculpt have been on e-bay over the last few weeks and they seem to be vinyl in blister card packaging--if that is what DC is selling... well, $80 is way too much. So I'm hoping they have a different edition.

it looks like the idea was taken from bowen version on top of the gargoyle, if it was in a different style I may have piced it up, not into the ripped, rough looking sculpts
