If you get one with no QC issues, I think you'll be happy with the choice.
At this point I'm undecided as to which I think looks better. Better accuracy etc, etc. The DX11 comes with 2 head sculpts and on the other hand my EB Bats needs a companion
Decisions decisions.

Buy both. That's what I did.
How is this worse than DX11?

Here's the thing with the two competing versions. And hell, honestly I don't even know if they're competing...the 1/4 scale tends to be for a different breed of collector at times. I'm not by any means a 1/4 collector, but once I got the EB Batman followed by the EB Joker, they made my 1/6 versions almost obsolete. You can just do so much with the larger scale in terms of realism that it really brings out the flaws in the smaller scale.
and the Jacket. He's not wearing Hugh Hefners purple bath robe.
Bingo. 1/4 scale are for collectors that just want a kick *** display piece that will represent that character or even the entire series. Hot Toys are more for "tinkering" and setting up different poses and scenes.
I agree with the 1/4 - 1/6 comment. Once you go 1/4, Hot Toys seem to pale in comparison. That's not to say they are not good quality and look impressive. I just don't think those scales can exist in the same display. At least not in the same cabinet anyway.
A whole line of 1/6 figures would look impressive but so would one single 1/4. Different strokes.

Nice collection! Although yours is more an attack on the senses. My collection is very refined. I only have around 10 - 15 pieces at anyone time.
If I had an entire room to fill up then yeah I could organise it a little better. I think most freaks though usually only have around 3-4 detolfs or a couple of cabinets.
Not saying it CANT work. Just that within the display, your eye's are automatically drawn to the larger pieces. For me it cheapens my Hot Toys and they ain't cheap!!!!
Kinda like when I see detolfs stuffed with 8 figures on a shelf I'm just like "whats the point in that.....?"
