A.R.Ms # 18: DC Direct, Batman

Note: Even though this review is posted on a Wednesday, it's only because it took me 2 days to realise I never published the post. Normally, I'd write the post a few days ahead and save it as a draft in case I wanna make changes. Sorry folks!!

Luckily I don't get paid to do this or I'd definitely be out of a job.

Batman. Caped Crusader, Detective, Savior, Dark Knight. One of the few Superheroes that doesn't actually have super powers. Then again, if you're a multi-billionaire with a company that produces advance technology products, who needs them. Lex Luthor is a super villain without super powers either.

In this collection, we have from DC Direct, Justice League of America Series 2. The character details are from the very talented Brad Meltzer.

Packaging

Front

Back

To those who have read JLA's - The Tornado's Path, this little cut-out at the back has got to the icing on the cake. Not that I'd cut it out and put it in my wallet or anything...really!!

Detail/Sculpt

The base plate

By far one of the best Batman comic figure I've come across.

I freaking love the cape. It's made from soft rubber(insert dirty joke here if you must). They managed to capture the 'flow' of the cape.

He looks so serious. Just how he should be.

Check out his...err...utility belt(what were you looking at??). The sculpt is excellent.

Pricing

Standard is USD 15. But the Batman is everyone's favorite. So I'm guessing it will not last long on the shelves or online. But hey, you can get the whole Series 2 set at...you guessed it. Heroes in a Box.
