One problem I always have with these big armor suit designs is: how do they fit themselves in there? I know in comic world we are supposed to suspend belief for the miraculous and what not, but I mean looking at this Batman and the Lex Luthor based on where their heads are their crotch under the suit would be at the suit's belt-line. So are they like assuming the fetal position in the chest cavity so they don't break their legs or something. I wondered the same thing about the Iron Monger from the first Iron Man film, it seems like there's no way to fit their legs in there comfortably. Questioning aside this looks like a neat toy but I don't care for the Bruce Wayne head underneath.

I feel the same way about that sentiment. The old ML Hulkbuster has similar inconsistencies in design. Assuming that the body within the armor is spread eagle and of normal proportions, it becomes difficult to imagine locomotion while wearing the exo-suit. Never mind taking damage to any of the extremities at or near the armpit or groin. Western comic talent might want to study some Anime (specifically mech stuff) in order to create more symmetry between form and function....

The armored batsuit visible in leaked images from Batman vs. Superman: "Dawn of Justice" is bound to appear as an action figure sometime late this year or early next, as the movie is scheduled for release March 2016, and it seems reasonable to expect some merchandise to hit store shelves before Christmas. One hopes that the new suit is anatomically realistic. It's widely expected to resemble Frank Miller's design from The Dark Knight Returns, since the movie script appears to draw heavily from that story for source material.

I hope they don't make a beeline straight for the largest scale and top price point for collector grade stuff based on unrealistic expectations from previous seasons. Markets are already getting jumpy, and we haven't even got through January. It's going to be an interesting year. I hope some brands will continue to support a middle market.
