this looks good to me, don't understand the complaints. I prefer this to Prime 1's. I had no idea JND are making one too. Is that confirmed?

I believe it’s been mentioned on JND’s Facebook page.

This is better than P1's, but still a lot of room for improvement.

Yes indeed it's better than P1's but the Bale's face front view is where it hurts most. The cowl head is looking good as Batman but it's definitely not Bale the mouth area either. So I prefer to wait for future releases if any

Interesting, although I'm not sure what they could do to make it better especially considering the price they'll charge. If they do an unmasked portrait then I see them doing a great job with that with the rooted hair and silicone skin, but as for the body and cowl head I'm not sure what improvements they could make over this. Perhaps maybe fabric suit with actual armor pieces glued on like Hot Toys?

Looks like Bale to me in the pics/vids I've seen. Mouth area looks the same as the unmasked head, which has a great likeness, but I guess we all see things differently.

They both look so similar to me, from a distance I can't really tell that one has rooted hair.

generalszabo · Apr 30, 2021

Yeah they are very similar, at least from a medium to long distance. I think for the realism, rooted maybe isn't worth it as sculpted will always look the same

AllHailMegs · Apr 30, 2021

Sculpted hair is darker and yeah the difference is hard to see because its not the best light conditions but the rooted hair looks a little bit wider and softer.

GaryPool · Apr 30, 2021

Sculpted works just as much as rooted here because the hair is compact. Rooted hair really lifts a figure when hair strands are going over the face or hair is curly/wavy and has volume. So either would work for me - this looks good in some places but the face for me gives me Play Arts Kai vibes.

xpl0sive · Apr 30, 2021

Pre-ordered the sculpted hair version. No interest in the rooted hair for this one. Keen to see what JND do, but so far this is the best mass produced Bale Batman IMO.

Oxymoron · Apr 30, 2021

cowl looks kinda narrow, the eyes are too far apart and the chin is too smooth and feminine. hope they're going to make a batman begins that will be better

the likeness of CB is absolutely fantastic at this price point!

xpl0sive · May 1, 2021

It's definitely the best I've seen for sure. They nailed his likeness. I'm excited to pair this with Joker.

xb24 · May 9, 2021

He's looking better than the Prime 1 in this video IMO.
Start around 43:00
