Sculpted by Allterton. Sold by mad dog resin. I have really slowed my purchasing and building Batman resin garage kits recently. Very few of the kits that have come out in the last few years do anything for me. There's been a rash of Bisley/Jones/Wrightson/ overly muscular and tall pointy-eared sculpts that I really dislike. So when this one popped out of nowhere last month I got excited again. Mostly Miller inspired with a bit of the elseworlds stitchy costume work thrown in. -S

This is a nice looking figure. I do like the more short-eared compact 'fighting man' Batman (Although the demonic looking interpretation does make for an impressive visual image no question!) I am sure this is gonna be looking pretty cool once you've worked a bit of magic on it. Looking forward to the results!

Indeed a great looking sculpt, But personally I more prefere a more slender Batman. I love the head, and the costume details like straps and buckles and stuff, all very cool, but his body looks too bulky for the climbing & jumping around that Batman does. He looks borderline fat.
Still a great looking model, what's the price for one?

Very Miller-ish. I like it. If I got one I would paint him in light blues and greys, like Miller art. Get away from all the darks. Nice looking sculpt. Great piece. Thanks for showing it.

Sorry guys. Don't know the price. Unsure on the scale but I THINK it's 1:6. I do not own one yet though I am "in line" to be notified when they are ready to ship. I'll find out all info for anyone for whom it's a "must have".

Ooooo... That is nice. Wonderful detail on the cloth/outfit.
I agree with you Scot. There are far too many Kelley Jones inspired kits out there. I wonder why? I was never a big fan of his work.
Keep us posted as to your progress if you get to work on one of these.

Great find. I like the bulk of it and the "Millerness". It will be cool to see it finished by someone who knows how to do it justice.
