I think this is just my favorite 1:4 scale Batman now, period. It works as now than just a dark knight.

This is really sick, guys, notice the deterioration of the leather on the boot and in right hand nuckles! Amazing Daniel Bel!!!

Daniel is a freaking genius

Nightcrawler had that painted light effect from the pink-purple bampf cloud and it looks amazing there too. As for the light feature, yours is the first one I've seen with that yellow section. It's almost as if they used the wrong lightbulbs up top (yellow vs. white).

I'm contacting Sideshow

Thanks for the thorough review. Unlike a lot of people here, I'm a bit fan of the art style of The Dark Knight Returns. I remember sitting in a university library in the UK on a rainy day and reading the entire graphic novel. It's one of the things that reintroduced me to comics as an adult after dropping them in my early teens. I love this piece. I'm putting a pre-order in now. It will go great in my Bat Cave.

I was not going to get this until I saw your comic-con footage and saw the light up feature. I am forever greatful for your videos and all that you do for the statue community Chris. Mine should arrive next month and I am so excited to get it. Thanks again Chris.

So glad you are getting this one too.

I know you said it's an expensive night light jokingly, but this is totally replacing my nightstand lamp.

It’s freakin amazing but I wish they did a smaller version. Statues that size are just not for normal people.

oh! I've been waiting! The expression, the damage of the scratches, and the details of the boots and gloves are the best. The luminous gimmick is also great. I'm happy to see the real thing. This is worth collecting!

Congratulations, Chris; happy you like the statue. This version of Batman is one of my favourites. Thanks for the video, as always.

Glad you finally got it! I love the source material and this ended up being my gateway statue…lol…I absolutely love it….unfortunately ( or fortunately) it led to 7 other statues with 4 more on preorder….lol

Chris I think that’s a fault, I’ve seen at least 3 different reviews of this statue and the color of the light is the same throughout the entire bolt, I don’t think it’s supposed to go into yellow at the end.

Yea that’s light reflection, my Prime1 Skull Knight has that too, the bottoms of his legs, the bottom of his shield & sword are all painted a kind of orange colour because of the light up candles in the base, it’s to give the effect of the armor reflecting light from the candles.

Congrats on this! After seeing this piece in hand, now I really want this in my collection.

This review put me over the top! I just pre-ordered this big boy! I can't wait to get it! It looks amazing. Thanks for the honest and great review

One of my favourite batman pieces, the details are insane !

I'm sorry but this blows away Prime 1. Not only is this capturing one of the most iconic and dynamic moments in comic book history, it's not some boring museum pose where batman just stands there. Also, it has light up. Also, it's value in absurdly high. It costs so much less than a Prime 1 and it's a gigantic one at that. Statue of the year.

Been on the fence because I collect Marvel but this is the one DC statue I would want. Just it’s own spot in the cave. My waitlist just converted. Might have to dive in.

Completely a masterpiece! A piece of art indeed! Not a fan of Frank Miller artstyle, but this is such a statement piece, attention to detail here is phenomenal.

The unboxing and review have really made me want this piece. It looks amazing but I’m holding out on 1/4 Batman hush and seeing how expensive that is

Badass Batman piece my brother 🔥🦇🔥

I just bought this. I am so happy. 😊😊

I got mine a couple of months ago as I ordered it last year. It is AWESOME! The only flaw, on yours too is the hand fingers are pointing up instead of flat.

@mattchedzey

Жыл бұрын

I don't think that's a flaw. I think it's intentional. Fingers can slightly point up when being flexed hard.

Find it odd that your bolt is yellow (with light on) at the top and transitions into the white/blue. Mine is a solid white/blue all the way through. Looks great either way!

Mine has some yellowing too, not very bright and even a bit of the filament is visible with light on. Its in the sideshow pictures as well. However I believe that it's meant to be solid bright white light.

I've had mine since it started to ship, and I absolutely love it. My favorite bat statue.

It's so unique and cool

I have some slight paint imperfections on the lightening bolt and the lightening is all white when lit up no yellowing whats so ever its a awesome statue

You need the comic to get with it now!

I had to return the original due to a small break on the bolt, - the lighting on the first one I received was all pure white, but the replacement had the color transition (yellowish at top, blending into white at bottom half) - so not sure if the color transition was introduced a little bit later in production? I love it though it gives a much more interesting look when turned on. Killer piece !

I'm curious what Sideshow answer was to the yellowing. I told them I didn't like it and got a replacement . Glad I did, 2nd one is more baby blue lighting look. I believe it was a quality control issue, but honestly it looked and felt like someone pissed on the lighting bolt. I wasn't happy with the 1st one, but definitely glad I ordered it. This statue is amazing.@@BatmanStatueCollector

I saw your live stream tonight where you mentioned it turning yellow, so I came to this video to see what you were talking about. I am getting my man cave built so I have this statue in the box. I have not opened it yet, now I'm thinking I should so I can check to see if it is yellow.

This was great, I was going to get him, but then saw the lightning turn yellow. Now sideshows posting shows the light up feature really yellow. This doesn’t look as great when the light was pure blue/white. Did yours get fixed Chris??

Yes my replacement is white

This is one of my favourite looking Batman statue ever, only one that compares with it is the 1/6 Batman from Tsume. The pose is perfect, the paint & sculpt is perfect, I love the scrapes with the blood look great, the base and light up are incredible, and then the cost is just amazing. There is absolutely nothing that I would change on this, Sideshow absolutely knocked it out of the park with this.

Waitlisted on sideshow now..

It looks so damn good 🔥🔥🔥
