Nope, it was Carlos Fariza.

Too over the top, if you ask me.

That's a fantastic custom. Great choice of blues and greys, the belt and bat oval really pop. Love the musculature revealed without that fabric.

Well, fair enough. I definitely like it. But now this modern age Batman coming out from SS I might just force me to get the Batman PF I didn't want to get.
I grew up with this version, and looking at the piece it just brings up too many nice memories to resist.

That custom looks really cool, but that chest logo is waaaay too low. It's placement kills the whole thing.

I was looking at the video they released and the more I saw it the more I wanted this statue. I have been waiting for my first batman statue and when I saw the first one I didn't get that "I must have it" feeling so I passed on it. I personally love the blue on batman....think it looks badass!

The original has blue hues in the cape. Imo the only real difference is the emblem on the chest.

That custom is cool but I don't understand why the base was painted those colors.

Sideshow not changing the base on this piece really makes this a hard pill to swallow. The sculpt is phenomenal so I have no qualms with Sideshow reusing it but this would have been an instant purchase if he had his foot resting on the bat signal.

I've been waiting for this version, which is why I've held off buying the original, Can't wait to get this! I don't car how many variants they make of each character or how high the ES is, I don't care because I don't flip statues. I have other things that make me money. Reading through the comments it sounds like there aren't many hardcore comic fans here. I think this one looks head and shoulders above the original black one! This will look great with the rest of the JLA characters together!
