It looks like DC's merchandising has gone a bit dormant for years now IMO. Take Batman, The last 2 movies were a hit and till now we haven't seen anything decent related to the caped crusader except maybe for the HT figures, but I'm more of a statue lover. I was expecting that after Dark Knight's huge success product companies such as Gentle Giant would be encouraged to release some great statues or busts from the movie version and MOSTLY the comic versions. Personally the only decent statues I see from DC Direct are the Batman Black and White statues. But then I see Bowen's Marvel statues and I ask myself why can't they do the same with DC? I mean let's face it, DC's busts are not as good as Marvel's. I'd love to see sculptors like Bowen come up with a 12" Batman Jim Lee style statue standing on the gargoyle, it would be great (Kotobukiya one not included). It's sad that the world's most loved comic book hero like Batman is given so little attention in the world of merchandise.
