I'd like to see someone pose this with arms down in a neutral position, with an angry BD head. Then place it next to HT Begins Batman with arms down and the drunken "O" mouth face.

The Neutral head has definitely lost the community vote. Amazingly, the Lick is winning on FB as well.
I can live with that.

I need to see this stood next to another figure. I have concerns about the physique. The neck seems incredibly tall.
I know I'm in the minority but unnatural proportions ruin figures for me. This one can't hide it under a cape and cowl.

It's a valid concern

A lot of what we’re seeing in these promo shots is destined to change.
We’ll be PO’ing based on a rough estimation with an implied understanding of the potential of the finished product.
The heads are currently all unique, solid pieces with sculpted, painted eyes but it sounds like the Standard is getting interchangeable mouth-plates and all heads will have movable eyes.
The body is currently a modified phicen but still doesn’t meet the specific proportions Joost wants to accurately mimic Pfeiffer’s physique. Therefore, the suit will also have to be retailored to perfectly fit the custom body.

If the “Hell Here” window diorama does turn out to be locked in the double pack, and not sold separately, if anyone is interested in both figures but not the diorama, I’d be interested in working something out to take it off your hands - whenever it releases.
I’m likely just going for the clean version, but want the window diorama.

So why are headsculpts voted out? Isnt the ultra schmega mega deluxe version supposed to come with them all?

Standard comes with 1 head, DX comes with 3 but the sculptor has worked on a ton of heads and JazzInc has narrowed it down to the 4 best to let the community decide which 3 we want.
There is a slim possibility that PO numbers could be so high that Jazz is able to throw in the 4th heads
Might also be face plates instead.

If we go with face plates, then I think all four of the standard release designs should be included. There's not enough variation in the brows to make a difference, especially since posable eyes are happening.
But for the battle damaged version, I see where that's an issue.

These two hadn't been posted here yet. The neutral one looks more interesting than before here.
That second picture is of the “smirk” head.
Of course it is. I wasn't talking about that pic when I mentioned the neutral sculpt.

It’s not at all that I don’t want the Neutral sculpt; I actually really like it. I just don’t want it at the expense of any of the others.
Too much greatness on offer.
Too much greatness on offer.
Yup I know rolling eyes are all the rage right now, but it can really hurt the likeness if not done perfectly right. And I'd honestly rather not take the chance with these great sculpts.
Would be nice to at least see a proto with the rolling eyes first to see how it looks, before firmly committing to it.
This will be a tough one for me.
The prototype paint isn’t officially licensed quality. Production paint will try its hand at replicating it; meaning less than what we’re seeing here.
How often has paint improved in production?
If the workers on the assembly line can out-do her paintwork then she isn’t fit for the prototype.
On the other hand, the only ones who have perfected rolling eyes are Hot Toys and now JND with their magnetic glass eyes.
We may see unsightly eyelid gaps, the inner mechanics may malfunction, break, or become loose. The iris decal detailing may end up foggy or not as realistic as the HT ‘89 Keaton 2.0.
There’s no real clear direction this should go, with lackluster painted eyes you can send it off for a repaint, though how many of us are willing to send off six sculpts for repaints at $200+ a pop after spending $800+ on the deluxe two pack? With rolling eyes you’re at the mercy of a more realistic pair fitting securely as a replacement.
It's actually quite simple: a seller will offer his wares... and you will decide if you wish to buy his wares or not.
