Photos and Details for the Batman “Dark Knight” Maquette by Tweeterhead

under DC Toy News

A stunning new Batman statue has been revealed by Tweeterhead. They have announced their “Dark Knight” Batman 1/6 Scale Maquette, which feature a Frank Miller inspired Batman in classic blue and gray colors. At 1/6 Scale, the statue will likely stand in the 12″ to 13″ range. There will be a total of three versions eventually available. This week, fans will be able to order the Tweeterhead Exclusive versions. The first Exclusive version features two swap out portraits, and two swap out left hands. The second Tweeterhead Exclusive is a mud covered variant, which also includes the two portraits and hands. The regular version, which does not include any interchangeable parts, will go on sale through general retailers next week.

Each version of the statue is priced at $235. We’ll update with pre-order links when they go live. For now, check out full details and new photos after the jump.

Hi There,

Pre-Sale for our “Dark Knight” 1/6th Batman Maquettes starts this Thursday morning.

We’re doing things a little differently this time around with the pre-order. The Tweeterhead EX will premiere this Thursday, May 30th and the the regular version will be available from your favorite distributor or dealer next Thursday.

The price of these pieces and hopefully pieces in this line will be $235.00, we’re doing our best to keep costs low so the collectors can tap into this entire line up.

1. The Batman EX Maquette (Blue and Grey) will be limited to 350 pieces and include two heads and two left hands. The regular edition will only include one of each (left hand WITHOUT Batarang and non screaming head).
2. The Batman “Muddy” Variant will ONLY be sold on Tweeterhead.com and will be strictly limited to 750 pieces. The “Muddy” version includes both heads and both left hands, and a unique base exclusive to this release.

These two amazing pieces were spearheaded by Jason Wires or JWP, designed by Nelson X Asencio and incredibly sculpted by Keith Kopinski. Jason also handled the mold and cast and paint. This is a new line that will not just focus on interpretations of Batman, but other favorite characters in 1/6th scale as well. The next two releases are finished and are really amazing!!

Get on board now, no telling where this line will lead…Pre-Sale begins this Thursday morning

As always, THANKS

    I've always wondered how the swappable parts on something static like this work.

    A lot of the times, it's just a cut in the sculpt, usually hidden in a clothing seam, or where there's a natural break in the design. Then they use an interlocking joint that holds it in place.

    so the alternate portrait of this thing might just be the mouth section within the cowl?

    and the left hand would probably be the entire forearm?

    The alternate portrait is likely the entire head and neck.

    The screaming head looks a little like he's saying "Why did you say Martha?" But overall, incredible detail and right up there with the Miller line of things. I could imagine they'll release a black and white version with this as well.

    Man that looks really nice and is not badly priced compared to some statues. Very tempting.
