I was thinking about ordering this (depending on finances) but now I don't plan to. The neck is too elongated and the bat symbol is bad.

It's too obvious that the big head and long neck are caused by fish eye effect when the camera gets too close to the object. I wonder why you people can't see it?
 
This was the deal breaker? the bat-logo on the chest?

Interesting place to draw the line in the sand.

Yes. The belt already troubled me. I have the original. Its a variant of said original yets its $440. Many new PFs forthcoming. And principle of the bait and switch, if SS knew they couldnt pull off the raised logo as in the first PF, then why advertise a raised logo on this only to switch it (Im waiting for Alex to answer this). All this equals totality of circumstances leading to the proverbial straw.

If it looked good then no... But in that photo anyways... Yuck... I will wait for more photos and see what people who have seen it first hand say... But that looks dumb in the photo... Compare it to the first photos and there is a world of difference in the symbol and gives the piece a cheap look. Why they could not at least do what they did with Superman's Symbol is beyond me...

I mean when it goes from this..

such a shame.. really wanted this to go with a Robin piece or Nightwing
 
why cant they do the same thing they did with the Superman logo on that PF?
 
Perhaps it's the lighting that is throwing I off. The promo pics have dim lighting and the color is more matte, but the SDCC pics are all shinny reflecting the light of the flash. :dunno
 
By that logic, the blue should be one solid color without any subtle shading worked into it.
Seems to have shading in the blue here, yet the belt is still bright yellow.

Its based on the bronze age suit and theres plenty of times when the blue suit had shading but they never made that belt seem anything but yellow until some time in the 90s. All I'm saying is people wanted that suit and now they have that suit and they're complaining that got exactly what they wanted...except for the new sculpt of course, but thars a separate issue.
