Weirdly the longer I hesitate on pre-ordering this the more I think I will skip it, I really like the sculpt and base and think the glider wings could turn out pretty cool... but do I need it?
 
I think I prefer the 1.0 cowl this time. I'll likely try to pick that up. It's not that the 2.0 is bad, but the angles and edges of it just aren't as refined to my eye. Hatch doesn't bother me.

There's also a sheen to the 1.0 cowl that I really Iike which isn't there on the new one.

I like the head sculpt + ripped cowl and I like the display base with the Shreck logo.... but I'm going off the glider wings the more I see them, unless there is some more real-light pics of the wings fully taut and extended that actually make them look good... then they are no longer a draw and seem like something that only looks good in the [not always faithful to reality] proto sales pics.
The sculpt/cowl + the base + the wings were enough for me to consider getting this 2.0 despite my being really really happy with the 1.0 Returns figure, but now I honestly think there just isnt enough here to properly tempt me into double-dipping.
I think if you dont have a Keaton Batman then this is the best choice no doubt given how shoddy the 89' 2.0 has turned out, and I think if you are just looking for a Returns Keaton to go with your 89 figure then again this is the one to get as there is nothing in the Returns 1.0 that this figure doesn't have + more, but if you have the Returns 1.0...... I'm not sure.
 
Pretty sure all of us who preordered this Returns Batman would either leave the wings in the box or sell it.

I only got this for the nice little diorama and the unmasked Wayne head. Also the whole figure cuz I never had 1.0 BR.

Agree, never even remotely thought
of pulling that wing cape out for display.

It’s a sure-fire way to kill any realism on the shelf
while either knocking everything around it down or just obnoxiously taking space it shouldn’t. As long as I collect, I’ll never use a single stock cape, from any company.

Never owned a Keaton so I think with the sculpt included, it’s really the best option we’re getting from Burton. Reward points to knock the deluxe price a bit and you’re set.
 
I was disappointed that 1.0 returns didn’t get the glider but 2.0 is the only reason for me to get it haha.
 
I'm still not sold on this one compared to the 1.0. Are the ears shorter this time?

I refuse to get "2.0'ed" on another Keaton Bats
 
One’s a phone camera, the other is professional shots.
