man, you make those ears any taller and he'll need a red light on top of them for planes.

If you're going to put handlebars on your head at least make them too big to fit in a toilet... I guess. I can't look at big bat ears without focusing on how impractical they would be in a fight. I know I can't dwell too much since he has a cape but the ears can push it too far for me.

I get a pretty big Sam Kieth vibe from that head sculpt. I really like Kieth's art, but it doesn't look like it translates to a "real world" look too well.

That looks horrible. "Banana Man." And what's with the jowls?

The rest of the costume looks promising. I like the Zorro-ish approach to the cape. The belt and tights seem very functional, back to Year One basics.

Definitely gotta do something about that head sculpt. Batman is NOT Richard Nixon.

Looks like he's really trying to hold one in instead of going to the bathroom.

The figure and accessories might turn out to be really good, but I think if I was going to buy after I get to see the full reveal, that head has got to go! Could be worse though:

I cant tell if he has a nose

I would buy if not for the cowl on his chest, body frame doesn't feel like bats, and his chin.

who knew it could be hard to make batman with a good chin, when that's all you see..

I love the costume and accessories, but find the head sculpts very off-putting. From left to right: 1) Having a BM, 2) Gonna Cry, 3) Root Canal.

The face is unsuitable for the costume.

I'm still waiting for a nice figure tribute to Year One. David Mazzuchelli indicated that he had Gregory Peck in mind when he began character sketches for Bruce Wayne. A simple passive expression on a strong, generic male face with short, forward-pointing ears would serve.

Thanks for letting me vent.
