My concern with the 1/2 Michael Keaton Batman Statue
So I?m a big 1989, 1992 Batman fan. I am very excited about the Prime 1 1/2 Batman statue, and I am trying hard to love it. But what bugs me is he just doesnt look 100% like Michael Keaton under the mask to me. Its probably because of his eyes. So I went back rewatched both movies, and the statue still doesnt look 100% like Michael Keaton to me. I mean thats just not the expression of MK Batman. I didnt see/find that eye expression throughout both movies. And what makes things worse for me is, I realize the statue kinda look more like Jonah Hill than MK under the mask? I am trying hard to love and buy this statue, so guys tell me if I am wrong and crazy, lol.
I hope they kept it simple, safe and iconic, more like this movie prop: https://www.yourprops.com/Batman-bus...89-YP4509.html

There are no perfect likenesses in this hobby.

If you want a 1/2 buy it. If you prefer 1/3 then wait. I passed on the P1 1/3 as I wasn't impressed, and Queen isn't reliable, but JND might be doing one, but with only a few pieces a year that might be a long wait. I have a lot of other 1/2s so I will probably end up getting the P1.

I?ve never had a 1/2 before. The last time I saw them on the market is Obi Wan, Darth Maul from sideshow, lol.

Go custom if you want the best result - do not rely on Queen, their sub par delivery times are becoming the stuff of Legend, you may literally die waiting for Queen to deliver with their crap "batch system" - and as for JND, good luck! They can do realistic sculpt, but their team struggle to capture actor likeness - in fact, lately, JND's efforts have been so consistently awful, they've managed to make it a USP.

Welcome! And nice to read that you are also a fan of Batman 1989 / 1992. I hope that you will receive the version of this statue that you are currently envisioning.
Please enjoy your stay

There have been many good 1/2s since those days.
