Everyone has their own limits for what they consider "worth it" in terms of cost. For me, buying a custom head for Batman Begins is factored into my own mental cost of an actual Begins figure. Had Hot Toys actually put in some effort, or another company produce an actual collectible figure then...
I've always like the New52 suit myself and am liking the look so far, but why they chose for this to be the initial shot instead of a proper full body shot with better lighting is baffling.
I think so as well, plus the total cost for unreal painted with extra mouth plates and moving eyes with most likely be cheaper or equivalent to this sculpt after paying for it to be painted.
Man, that headsculpt is one of the best I've seen in terms of likeness. Makes the old Maul look more like a caricature whereas this actually looks like Ray Park in my eyes.
I think this is looking great. May pick up an unpainted copy and send it off to be done by someone else. The Inart sculpt is good imo, but this looks next level. Don't think the Inart needs any mods, but as with any mass produced figure, the custom offerings tend to look the best.
