Man that group shot makes the Christopher Reeve Superman look like a vast improvement. And that sucks because Reeve really underperformed when compared to the prototype

Is the neck piece supposed to move on the MoS version? I keep trying to get him in to a good flying position but the heads keep popping off when trying to get him to look "up". Reeve version had some back and forth on it so could really get that position so I dont know if its not just a thing in this version or if I have a stuck neck joint.

Also, anyone getting light bleedthru on the light up head? Noticed last night fiddling with it I was getting some red light thru a cheek.

Yep articulation at the neck and base of the skull


No bleed through on mine that I noticed

Such a huge improvement over their first Superman. Night and day.

I may be in the minority on this, but I’m really glad he’s less bulky. The first one looks kinda bulbous in comparison — new proportions are much better, IMO.

I agree. Looks like hes got a muscle suit on under his costume

Yeah between the body used for the new Supes and the head sculpts there’s no comparison. The only thing I like about the original is the chest logo, everything else just does not work IMO

My credit card is charged for Keaton Bats, no word from Mezco.

Wow, Mezco sure is slacking these days....
Perhaps it's us getting impatient, but come on, if you make people pay, just send them their stuff >.>

I don't even care anymore. Mezco has such terrible general customer service, that I've just accepted its probably gonna be mid to late April before I get my Keaton Bats. It is what it is. This is my last Mezco purchase, I'll get it when I get it. It's processing, so it'll arrive eventually. It's just beating a dead horse at this point with Mezco, this is the last time I deal with them...

The fact that we've seen or heard nothing in weeks gives me hope that the few pics we saw were some kind of crappy factory reject that we weren't meant to see and the real figure is gonna look better. And not have giant anime eyes and a plastic stick in the back of his head.

Sigh....that was the final production figure, wasn't it?

Everybody: Mezco is taking a long time to produce and ship Keaton Batman.

and they just added a shipping fee to wholesale cases with the recent preorders. before it was included in the wholesale price. it will probably result in a $5 price jump from retailers. on the good side with how quickly they fill orders that won't happen for at least a year or so.

Yeah, I think for me too. Them pulling the phone off the hook, ghosting messages sent through their site, not even doing the basics in customer service.......their toys aren't THAT good.
