Fabulous photos! It looks like Batman's in the city.

Yeah, I kind of dig the stylized paint job going on with it. And the white eyes look pretty good. I imagine under less harsh lighting conditions it looks great.

I've seen some manips with the blue and gray that look great. I admire the effort of repainting those figures, but I feel like the colors need to be adjusted. The blue is far too bright on that BvS Batman.

Just opened this guy up. I've had the BvS Batman twice, the Suicide Squad Batman also, and this is hands down the best Affleck version in every way. Just needs a little bit of futzing and its perfect, the cape is fantastic, the mouth plates scream Affleck and it's just a solid piece - worth the wait!

The quality of the mouth plates, eyes and leather look on the cowl have improved for sure.

The proportions of the legs bother me though. Doesn't look nearly big enough in the thighs. Overall I like this figure a lot but still give the edge to the SS Batfleck(with custom cape).

Still absolutely in love with this figure. Easily my favourite Batfleck out of the whole Hot Toys lot, and easily the most photogenic as well.

So Popcultcha got their stock. Too late for Christmas (unless you are local) but will be a nice post christmas bonus. I'm looking forward to this one. I got Knightmare and Armoured but never a straight up Affleck Batsuit.

Well, I guess that'll be the first figure to arrive in 2020 for me too.

He's worth the wait, absolutely phenomenal figure, makes the BvS in my opinion like the barbie version. (Hyperbole but slightly true).

Love this guy.

 

[creasy]

The usual positive contribution.

barbie version? lol.. the bvs cowl is way better looking!!

BvS Batman is a total beast, I absolutely love that figure. Especially with the chest mod and wider cape. Good lord its a work of art. The wider neck to the cowl matched Batman's physical bulk (a nod to Miler's TDKR) and was also designed to strike terror into the hearts of criminals, etc. I can't imagine not adoring that excellent figure. Regardless of refinements to the mouthplate for the JL figure.

I'm gonna be opening the JL Batman figure within the hour (it's remained wrapped and under the tree since it arrived in October), and then I'll judge the comparison.

The overly bloated neck on the BvS cowl looks silly, I've never liked it.

Lol. Okay. Let me rephrase: "I can't imagine me ever not adoring that excellent figure."

Well, I do like this figure a lot. It's got a lot going for it. The mouth plate is a bit better paint. There's more detail in the cowl around the eyes. And the darker, shinier suit is cool. The stock cape JL Bats comes with is certainly better than the stock BvS cape. But I have custom capes that I replaced the BvS stock cape with anyway, double-sided wired and drape.

I'm definitely very pleased to have it. It's a fantastic addition to the collection. But I can say right off the bat that I don't love it more than BvS Batman.

This isn't the best pose for JL Batman, admittedly. I'm having a bit of trouble getting him in a sturdy stance for the shelf. Probably foolish of me to display figures as I do, but I don't like the crotchgrabber stands.

 

[Alatar]

Btw, here is a comparison of the head sculpt for the JL Batman figure and the Eleven Batfleck 2.0 head sculpt. I like them both. I think the Eleven sculpt is more accurate to BvS, as an older Batman who's struggling internally. And with the JL one he actually looks younger and "prettier." I think I like the more rugged version, actually.

 

[Alatar]

And I posted this in the Tac Suit thread, but I'll repost here to reemphasize that I love, love, love the blaster and base from the JL Batman figure paired with Tactical Suit Batman. So all in all, this figure is a big winner for me.

Like yourself Alatar I still prefer the BvS look. This is a very impressive figure but there is a tendancy for people to always say the new figure is best.

This has some noteable improvements on the BvS Batman but the thicker neck, better abs and lighter suit on the older figure outweigh those improvements for me.
