Remember, you saw it here first! The Bat-Blog has been honored by The KOTOBUKIYA Company as the very first website to introduce their latest creation, The Dark Knight Batman Movie "Original Bat-Suit" Artfx Statue!! This is the 2nd release of a deluxe, collector’s edition, statue based on Christopher Nolan’s THE DARK KNIGHT. This figure is approx. 14 inches tall!
It's called the "Original Bat-Suit" because, before upgrading his costume, Batman faces the Gotham underworld attired in this sleek, stealthy gear. It shows Batman engulfed in his cape while perched upon a bright Bat Signal. The original costume and upright signal imply the early career of the detective, as an admired protector of Gotham City.
Rendered with insane detailing by sculptor BusujimaX, and drawing upon vast reference material from both DC Comics and Warner Brothers, the Bat-Suit Costume, Bat-Signal, and facial likeness of actor Christian Bale are all captured perfectly. ARTFX Statues are 1/6th scale model kits that can be easily assembled in minutes without any glue or modeling skill. It will be available exclusively from DC Direct in JANUARY so look for it then! Oh yeah, the suggested retail price will be $125.00.
