We can blame Mattel and DC/WB for the lack of broad access to these figures. Mattel has master rights for DC toys and NECA is usually only allowed to make the quarter-scale stuff because Mattel has no interest in the scale, 7" figures are normally off the table as per licensing deal. These (including Keaton Batman from last year) were only permitted because they're part of a DVD bundle offer and weren't actually meant for individual sale. I imagine if Mattel didn't have master rights then NECA would've made these a good while ago by now. DCC is of course allowed to make DC stuff all the time because they are DC.

Is it really "lucky?" I got mine through the eBay store so I didn't bother really looking them over when my store finally got them but from what I've seen (mainly on Twitter) these figures are generally pretty decent on the QC area. They certainly seem improved over Keaton Batman and I've only seen the Superman have real breakage chances. West Batman and Ledger Joker I'm sure have some bad results out there too but it could be much worse I reckon.
