The Batman Shelf

From the people who brought us the Metals Die-Cast line, comes a new line of figures called Nano Metalfigs. Great figures, small, fair price, very good looking.

ASDA is the place where I rarely get Batman figures, but this time I actually got a nice one (actually it was 2). After the good surprise that comes with their size, the one thing that strikes you the most is how good they look, the moulds are good and the metallic paint complements it very well. A fantastic line for both the beginner collector and the completely addicted one.

Figures feel heavy, sturdy, and because of the base, very stable. My only objection against them is that I would like if the base was painted in a different colour, giving the figure a chance to pop up even more.

The pose would be another thing to improve, but that is personal taste, the cape and the boots because of position and colour, kind of blend and make to read the pose easily and clean. I've read some reviews that put this one as one of the least attractive figures from the series, but I disagree and I align with the ones that think that it is a good approach to expand fandom beyond traditional collectors. And the fact that this figure is getting a bit more difficult to find, and its price is going up speaks for itself.
