So this seems to be the best shot of the downward looking face:

The angry head looks great here:

I guess the angle is gonna affect what look works best for your display.

DAMMMNNNNNNN :eek

Batman statue never looked so damn good as this.

BEST Statue EVER

Yes, that shot right there, with that head. Looks amazing.

I'm loving the black blue mix of the cape, kinda like what Koto did.

There is no reason for that cape to look like that!

Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF

There's so many niggly things about this piece, that I don't know whether I'll order or not.

His face sculpt looks more Judge Dredd than Batman, and though I can certainly live with both face sculpts, don't dislike them particularly, and can just take this as an 'older' Batman, I don't particularly love either one. His raised leg looks fat rather than muscular (kind of like the DC 1/4 in that respect). His neck does have a little bit of the giraffe thing going on, but it's not too bad. And probably the thing that bugs me most of all, the flow of the cape, where it kinks up at the shoulder, just doesn't work, for me at least. I know what they are going for, but to me it just looks kind of awkward and doesn't flow properly. None of these are deal killers, but they all do bug me just a little.

But on the other side, there's also just as many things about this piece that I really do like, I think the detailing looks great, and they've done really well on the suit, which I was worried about. The base is quite nice too. And most of all, he does have the right 'feel' for a Batman piece. That watching, imposing thing really does sell quite well with the piece.

Hmmm, I just don't know...

Yep, I echo a lot of your sentiments. The bump in the cape is probably the most awkward thing to me. I definitely think he displays better facing sideways than straight on...

LOVE THE CAPE, I am glad it's not a cloth cape.

Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF

I am trying to figure out does the EX comes with 2 heads or the batarang ? I much prefer the Batarang to be more of a darker color instead of gold.

I am more concern with the head sculpt. If the regular comes with 2 heads, I can deal with just the regular.

Because that old supposedly "angry face" expression is ugly. I much prefer the other head sculpt with a more relax face and longer ears.

Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF

Proper lighting can make both the heads look great. However, I wish the neutral expression was a tad bit pissed off, he looks like a happy chappy or a couldn't care less Bats.

Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF

I'm glad the cape is not cloth either...even with that cape hitch, sculpted in this case is way better.

You can tell what the exclusive has based on the pictures with the little exclusive sticker. The batarang seems to be the exclusive accessory. Looks like the regular comes with both heads.

That is a lame EX. Rang down to the side.

Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF

100% that this statue looks fantastic when posed from side on - as shown on the exclusive pics 1-3. This way the glitch in the cape isnt so noticable and the whole statue looks awesome

THNKS for the hi rev pics guys...regarding the cape, i could only think it has got something to do with the wind and all, as he is in a high building .. Havent really understoond the material of the cape but it looks gr8. If some people dont like the way capes shows on his right shoulder , Batman can be displayed different as in pics and still looks gr8. That is a def. PO 4 me guys
