Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo’s Dark Nights: Metal series was pretty amazing, offering a bizarre yet awesome take on the caped crusader. That’s why we wanted to our grubby little nerd mitts on this Dark Nights Metal Batman Statue from DC Collect. After all, what’s better than being Batman? Simple: being Batman with two battle axes.
THE SPECS
Designed by Greg Capullo and sculpted by Jonathan Matthews, this isn’t the biggest Batman statue you’ll ever see, but it is a decent size, making it a great starter figure for someone looking to get into collecting. The attention to detail is great and the unique color and tattered cap is well done. Everything also feels incredibly solid (this isn’t a flimsy Batman statue you have to worry about breaking or falling apart at the slightest touch). The paint work in particular is also stunning, from the blood spatters on the Dark Knight’s face, to the mud and grit caked on the battle-damaged Bats. It’s beautiful to look at from virtually every angle.

WHAT IT COMES WITH
You won’t find a ton of accessories or additional bells and whistles with this statue. It’s pretty much ready to go out of the box, is easy to assemble and can be quickly mounted on top of a solid base. No fuss, no muss, no bothering with your utility belt to get it set up. Just pure Batman goodness ready to be displayed.
THE PRICE
As for costs go, this Dark Nights Metal Batman Statue is actually on the cheap side (especially when you consider that larger higher-end statues can go for hundreds or even thousands of dollars). You can easily snag this for a little over $100. There are also some smaller versions of the statue (at about 7″) if you’re looking for a cheaper option, but this is a great price point considering what you get.
OUR RATING
With incredible details and a beautiful design from Greg Capullo and master sculptor Jonathan Matthews, this Dark Nights Metal Batman statue is a must-have for fans of the Dark Nnight and anyone looking to get into the collector market.
