Sideshow and Prime 1 Studio have unveiled a new quarter scale Batman vs Batman Who Laughs collectible statue which is available to pre-order now, priced at $1,505; check out the promotional images here…
Inspired by the variant cover by DC artist David Finch of the seventh issue of the mini-series The Batman Who Laughs, the artists at Prime 1 Studio have outdone themselves once again to breathe life into this dynamic and intense fight scene between the Caped Crusader and the Joker Toxin-infected supervillain of the Dark Multiverse.
This dark and gritty Batman collectible diorama stands over 26 inches tall and features the two Batmans aiming for each other’s throats; one fights for justice and order as the other fights for chaos and mayhem. The Batman Who Laughs’ slimmer physique is accentuated by a form-fitting leather-like tunic, the belts, buckles, and spikes add a touch of brutality and emphasize the darker and more twisted nature of the character. His distinctive and unsettling grin stands out prominently against the dark cowl – promoting a sense of madness and giving off a nightmarish effect, taunting his adversary as the razor-sharp claws slice through space. The Batman, on the receiving end, confronts this manic and utterly disturbing version of himself with a more composed demeanor. Although lightly wounded, as shown by the few torn places on his armor, the fight is far from over as he charges another punch with all his strength, showcasing his muscular core from every angle. He dons the classic and iconic black and grey tunic with the yellow utility belt. They both stand atop a base adorned with skulls, bats, and bones flying around, adding to the grim atmosphere of the statue, the longer you look at every little detail, the harder the chill down your spine.
The Deluxe Version includes two additional Batman head variants, featuring a closed mouth and slashed cowl and an open-mouthed Batman Who Laughs head for the extra psychological instability. These parts will all come with headstands for you to display around the statue.
