- XM Shogun
I'd rather have any of those than that one, even if the original SS's were all fabric. The only one that it's debatable for me is the 2020, because they're both so underwhelming. It's like which one do I dislike the least. Sideshow just has an incredible knack for putting an unappealing twist on a character.

I'll give you the sideshow twist sometimes doesn't always work for them. Also only Batman inc p1 was 1/4th, year zero was 1/3rd on the bike. Again it's all your opinion, you're entitled to it. It's Batman, like Wolverine there will be another and hopefully that's the home run for you we probably won't even have to wait that long either 1-2 years tops.
P1 Batcave is probably the best batman shown this year (IMO), but i don't collect 1/3rd, so sadly it won't be mine.
XM Samurai/Shogun's they are awesome, but for me i rather have my batman be more comic based.

The SS Batman Beyond has a better sculpt than this one. Even the recent Batman Bust has a better sculpt than this one.
I don't know. I'll wait for the next classic Batman PF.

Lol, that has literally never happened.
For one, I’m easy to please, so I like most of the stuff that gets made on some level. So I don’t need positive reviews to change my mind.
And for a second, I dislike this piece on all levels. Unlike Chappy which has aspects I like, there is no possible way this new one would ever grace my collection.
I should probably just buy the OG again and call it a day.

The P1 Zero Year is not 1/3.....I don't care what their labeling of it is. Look at the dimensions and watch videos where it's next to 1/3 statues. It's clearly 1/4 scale.

I am with you, but I don't hate this piece so far based on the pictures. However, for the price I still can't make myself get rid of my old statue just to pick this one up.
The biggest problem for me involving the OG statue is that sculpted cape. Unfortunately though I missed out on the whole Tony Mei limited release of leather capes.

Let Daniel Bel sculpt a classic Batman PF. Problem solved for everyone that still needs that PF.

Didn’t Bel say himself that he would be doing quite a few more DC items?

He did, yes. As quick as he is though even he can only get through so many in a year.
