Batman v Superman Play Arts Kai Batman Official Images

under DC Toy News

We have the first official photos of the upcoming Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice – Play Arts Kai Batman Figure. We previously saw the figure at the Tokyo Game Show 2015. Now Square Enix has released the final product photos, giving a look at the accessories and articulation. Batman looks to include a slightly articulated hard plastic cape. Accessories include swappable hands, a grapnel gun, a grappling hook, a batarang and a (smoke?) grenade. Batman is scheduled for release in April. The figure will be priced at 14,800 Yen (about $127 USD).

Read on to see the new images.

    May be one of the best Batman figures to date imo! Must buy!

    The photo format on the preview posts don't work very well on tablets. The photos load at a really low resolution. Only the photo in the first comment loads clearly.

    The attachment approach in the photo shoot posts work much better. Then you have the option to open a pic in a new tab and manipulate it more to see details.

    Sorry if this isn't the right spot for that kind of feedback.

    I don't have any issues viewing the news posts on my iPad, my wife's Samsung Galaxy Tablet or my cellphone (which I am looking at). We don't have any settings in place that would load the images in our news posts at a low resolution. The images will scale in dimension on lower resolution displays within the story, but the images themselves don't get compressed on mobile displays.

    Please ensure that the mobile device doesn't have any settings in place that reduces image quality to save on users' bandwidth.

    Honestly I think all the bats v supes stuff is overpriced and really not worth it. If shit keeps going up might just quit collecting.

    $130.00 ouch. I bought the PAK Man of Steel Superman for cheap last year because I was planning on buying this new Batman for him to go with, but I don't know if I can justify spending that much. I could buy lots of other cool stuff for the price of this one figure. I think he looks great though!

    I'm not seeing much depth in the Safari settings. No options that would make some photos render differently from others. I guess I'm on the wrong end of an algorithm somewhere. If you haven't heard this issue from anyone else and you can't replicate it ok.

    I'm going to bring it up with Tony B. Just in case he knows of something I'm not seeing on my end. Sorry you're running into an issue.

    Wow $130... they should add more accessories to justify that price at least....

    I wonder will it be in the same scale as the MoS PAKs?

    The big upgrade for me on this BvS Batman is the muscle definition. All other versions so far look like a chunky Bats.

    It's be about $30 cheaper as well. Which is crazy.

    Price is a real shame. This looks like one of the best Play Arts Kai Batman figures yet. Proportions don't seem too crazy, textured details look fantastic, articulation is spot on.
