This looks more like Iron Bat than Batman. Full Metal Batman should be its name! Perhaps Bat Armor Mark VIII sold by Tony Stark to Bruce Wayne to help him get rid of the scum in Gotham City or is it just Tony under there deciding to take care of business in Gotham as well? Super Alloy Batman with the head / face exposed? Not very good idea, is it?
With all that armor and Batman still cannot fly? Guess Iron Man is still one-up on this guy ;p

Wow, looks tight. I'm a HUGH Jim Lee fan from back when he penciled for MARVEL's X-Men titles. I'm scared to DEATH to discover another Company cranking out solid figures to take my money, but excited too because this could be the start of something EPIC for DC Comics, its characters and their fans. Decided to pass on the latest HOT TOYS Dark Knight, but this might fit the bill and take its place... Variety is the key for me now, I have no more shelf space LOL (not kidding)..

There are more Batman figures coming isn't there...? Thought it was announced thata figure based on the game Arkham City is coming as well...?
ReplyDeleteDie cast parts probably the main excuse to jack up the price... It looks cool but a bit too shiny and robotic. Perhaps between this and what sideshow showed at SDCC '12, collectors can bash a Jim Lee comic batman... People who PO Medicom's just for that Jim Lee head sculpt are probably cursing now. Honestly, I have less faith in Med's QC...
Looks like HT really doesn't back down against its competitors. EB announce 1/4, they are there. Medicom announce Jim Lee Batman, they are the too.
Think I might take a bite. Personally, I think this is more worthwhile than that expensive Pre-sale bundle that HT is trying to bait SGTCC goers with. The exclusive figures are really basic and don't warrant the price, IMO...
85% die cast. Looking at it, his crotch portion will probably contribute to the 15%. Hopefully Stark's pink panty syndrome won't be too contagious (",) but glad there aren't any fancy lights and batteries to worry about.
