It is freaking fantastic. Best The Batman statue by far IMO. Cannot wait for their Reeve Superman.

Obviously the detail on this thing is out of control and the likeness with the mask on works really well (albeit, not perfect), but what got me from the beginning - more than any other The Batman product on the market - was the stance. It just captures the feeling of Pattinson's portrayal perfectly.
My friend has the Nolan Batman, but that stance doesn't feeling like how Bale portrayed him. An amazing piece nonetheless, but definitely not how I ever saw the character in the film.
This, however, is exactly how he held himself so much of the time.
Counting the time for mine to arrive...

This is fantastic. I hope Reeve's Superman will be at this standard. I have that one on order.

I just can't get over how jaw dropping this thing is... a true work of art.
Great photos, it's an absolutely incredible statue! You getting anymore or got anymore from them?

Thanks Gary. This was my first and I have the Indy on order (but I'm a bit worried about the sculpt on that one). Regardless, JND are truly next level collectibles. Truly amazing attention to detail and presence.

Just caught this, great review.
I was going over my statue, and every time I examine him properly I'm still blown away. I absolutely hate when they don't use real fabric when they could, they started off with Arthur Fleck as the show piece of who they are, as in the full works - glass eyes, rooted hair, silicone skin and real fabric clothing, but the resin sculpt and texture is so unreal it almost doesn't matter that it's not real cloth.
The presence of this statue is unbelievable - every time I look at him I feel like I'm watching the scene of him in the beginning of the film walking out onto the train platform in the rain. Can't quite believe that statues like this exist for people to collect. That they included a mini-bust to display both was a great addition and commendable to them.
I just hope they sort out their pricing across what you get in these. For me this statue has more value than Justice League WW as much as I love that piece. There needs to be a through-line. Either way, this is a standout gem.

This ******* statue has destroyed collecting for me 
Every time I look at the rest of the collection, everything just pales into insignificance and feels like plastic toys - particularly the eyes.
When I look at new things to order I can't see past their "lifeless" eyes... and it's killing me
Snapped this on the phone, 30 second phone edit to give it that warm hue, bam - looks like an actual person in a suit. Incredible.

Please don't post pictures like that here. There's a reputation to uphold that JND is awful, you're making it difficult to maintain that.

I've been collecting for nearly 4 decades and spent about 80K over those years - anyone that says JND is awful has either, A, never seen their work in hand, or B, has some kind of bias against them.
NOTHING, I have ever seen from any collectible in-hand, comes close to the level of detail and quality of this thing... NOTHING!
Thinking their likenesses are off is more than fair. Thinking they're expensive is also more than fair. But to say they're awful is a joke.
I've travelled all over the world, been to gallery collections and collectibles stores everywhere, and again, from my experience, nothing comes close to what JND deliver in terms of quality and detail and realism.

I agree, it's the reason I got rid of my whole collection, they just don't compare. It is unbelievable that for this quality just an ordinary Joe can own something which would typically be a gallery or museum piece. They're not without faults, of course.
But great photo also!

As time goes on I'm beginning to fully understand you sentiment Gary; maybe it's to sell off the current SW collection and move onto some more JND's. You're 100%, it's hard to look at anything else once you own one of these. It's the damn eyes - so bloody good.
I'm hoping they do some Dune characters. If so, that will definitely be the moment I abandon ship on the smaller stuff.
Just ordered this. Looking forward to seeing what the hype is all about in person. I haven't purchased any Batman statues since the original comic Batman PF from Sideshow, so it's been a while, but it's hard to ignore how good this thing looks in pics and videos.

I had some rewards at Secret Compass so I went with Shane as it was already in stock as of this past week. It's on it's way now.
Took advantage of the black Friday sale and snagged this statue from Specfiction 
. Seeing it for the first time in hand blew me away. Insane details.

If you can remember how much was the Black Friday discount? Unsure if it was 35% or 25%. Also how much did you end up paying with shipping? I took the plunge recently and decided to get this as my first JND statue from a dealer with a slow departure from 1/6 scale. It should arrive next week but I’m nervous as heck because I heard of people collar necks getting damaged due to poor packaging.Took advantage of the black Friday sale and snagged this statue from Specfiction

I noticed you also had JND Reeve Superman. Between that Superman and the Batman, which one do you like more overall if you could only have 1? I was indecisive between both but for mainly budget reasons I decided to stick with Batman.
I believe the discount was 35%. I'm in the U.S., so shipping was $60usd. Specfiction double boxed my statue which arrived with no issues, fortunately.
As for which one i like more... JND CR Superman statue by far is my favorite and I'd definitely keep it over The Batman statue. But, I'm a diehard CR Superman fan so it's all personal preference.

Dam I’m so jealous haha. At 1,970.35 shipped that is such a great price. For me I had to pay a luxury 310 usd FedEx shipping and some PayPal fees on top totalling about 2,175.06 USD.
I was initially going to just get Christopher Reeve Superman due to these insane statue prices as my one and only but this JND Batman is honestly one of the best Batman statues I’ve ever seen photo wise. Like super lifelike copy and paste of a person. Most of the pictures I’ve seen of the Reeve Superman have been fairly average so far without mods to his hair. Only a few photos have done him right but it’s a difficult statue to photograph I’d imagine. I’m hoping the price will come down next year so i can afford to snag him up.
