There are 2 characters that comes to mind – Superman and Batman. Though I was not happy with Koto’s rendition of Superman, their Batman is absolutely fantastic! I could probably spend hours thinking of ways how to PhoTOYgraph this excellent piece. Even the posing is magnificent! I am and will always be a Superman fan but this is one exception that would make me want to own one.
Packaging:
Batman’s packed in a huge blister type box together with his stand. Congratulations to the people who did the artwork on the box.

Collector’s Perspective:
If you are a Batman fan then you definitely do not want to pass this up. This is by far the best Batman figure for me (my humble opinion of course) and there are a few out there who might come close. The way he is posed is simply spectacular and I love the way the figure is painted. It shows Batman at his best!
This is a sold out item already here in the Philippines. A good friend of mine got this from another friend who decided to give it up after a few years (lucky new owner). I searched Amazon and got several hits with different prices which is weird. It retails for about $ 199.95 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00192KNDM/ref=s9_simh_gw_p21_i1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=0GHQ1XR3KGTBQ4WK76JG&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=470938631&pf_rd_i=507846).
Some issues:
1.) It is almost perfect but not pose able.
2.) It would have been nice if Kotobukiya did a variant piece with a black and gray color scheme.
3.) A Robin figure that complements this excellent piece would have been nice.
PhoTOYgrapher's Perspective:
My amateur skill does not do justice to this fine piece. Even though this is not pose able, with proper lighting you can achieve awesome results. Bring this figure on top of a building and do a night shoot with the moon on it back and it will look fantastic !

I love how the people at Kotobukiya paid attention to Batman's details and paint job quality (which shows in the pictures). Even the cape that wraps around his body is well
