It is looking very good for the price and its painted. On top of that, and most importantly, it's better than Hot Toys sculpt. Those who can't afford the couple of hundred for OT Custom, this is a good sculpt. I've pre ordered for those reasons..

So how many different custom sculpts are there for this now? I haven't been keeping up, but just saw that Jaxon is selling one on OSK now, and it looks pretty darn good to me.

I've never had much interest in the figure before since the head was so awful, but I'm seriously tempted to pick one up now since they're still easy to come by. And I've already got a spare drape cape I can use for it...

Can't find it on onesixthkit. Do you have a link?
 
the craziest part is that it's only $85 usd shipped and includes two mouth plates, everything is painted
Holy crap, only $85 is a good deal. Looks better than hot toys and about the same as the other customs. I like that OT has moveable eyes but that for $320, or this, which to me looks just as good, for $85, it’s an easy choice. Plus going through Kit makes me feel better.
 
Just decided to pick this figure up from TBA. £200 total, which is a great price for a modern Hot Toy when you live in the U.K. Then I went straight over to kit to order the new Jaxon cowl.

This figure always seemed unsalvageable without spending ‘custom’ money but now, it seems the tide has changed. Also, InArt made no mention of Begins Batman coming in the immediate future , and with the hype around The Flash Batmans but those figures and suits not really appealing to me, I feel compelled to get a Batman from a movie I truly enjoy.

I’m assuming a custom cape is also required to make the most of it.
I’m loving the look in pics here with the cape draping over the shoulders so what’s the best option around for that? Is the new Jaxon ‘short cape’ the way to go?

I see there’s a long option- Z10 that goes past his feet or the latest, shorter Z-20 that stops at the ground. That seems best for me.

Yeah same here, I'm assuming the new short cape is the way to go, where did you say you bought your figure from, "TBA"?, also is the suit shiny? because apparently the later batches for that figure, the suit is not as shiny as the first.

TBA- Toys Buying Agent. They specifically mention it’s from the ‘final batch’ so I should be getting the matte suit, which would be my preference.

I made sure to do my reading up in here before buying. Was quite shocked to see about the paint/finish change- but Hot Toys gonna Hot Toys.

Still undecided on the cape. Gotta figure out how I’ll be displaying him first. I have a tall gargoyle diorma which he could stand on in which case, I could opt for the longer cape to drape down around it… Then would I want a wired option?
Decisions, decisions.

Interesting, do Toys Buying Agent declare it as a gift, so you don't pay import duties and that? also are you going to to try and see if the stock cape will work alright?

You’re in good hands with TBA. Just like KGHobby and OSK, TBA will mark a low value.
I’ve yet to be stung by customs even when it’s a big, heavy package that obviously contains more than $20 worth of stuff.

It looks like I'm going to have to wait because as soon as I went to buy it, it said on the PayPal checkout screen that they couldn't deliver and then I cancelled it and now it's out of stock.
