MAFEX really nailed the cowl-like was mentioned in the review, the deeply recessed eyes was a feature that really helped in creating more of a demonic look, emphasizing the piercing gleam in his eyes.
Apples and oranges. Batfleck was the best comic book version of Batman. Bale was the best in terms of a ‘real life’ version. Can’t compare the two, they were both fantastic in their own right. The movies however, DCEU never stood a chance against Nolan.
Great review, Anthony. Thanks for taking another shot at Mafex, considering the comic Spider-Man and Venom is about to release. The tactical suit Batman from this line is also a pretty decent piece, and they added wire to the cape on that one.
Love this figure! As several others have already commented, the tactical suit version from Mafex is even slightly better. Pretty much same engineering as this guy but they gave it a bendy wire cape!
Jacob Cooper well the “grounded in reality” fight scenes from baleman just simply have the bad guys(with guns) not shoot batman and comes in close one at a time. On the other hand, the “not grounded in reality” fight scenes from batfleck offers an explanation(placing explosive charges on the guns before engaging) for why the bad guys didn’t use their guns.
@@dankmemer2774 I get your point and partially that is due to the fight choreography, but I feel my personal favorite on screen is Baleman in begins he kicked some ass, tdk he was tough, and rises he was tough. For me Batfleck kills too damn much it’s overboard, and watching him kill so much makes me wanna bleach my eyes.
@@jacobcooper1088 oh yeah, no excuse for the killing part there. He didn’t just kill em, he overkilled all of em. He killed a bunch of henchmen and just lets the main bad guy live. But I was talking choreography when I said fight scene. I like The way batfleck moved and incorporated his gadgets seamlessly into his hand to hand instead of doing the gadgets and the hand to hand separately like in baleman.
Batfleck. When I watched the Daredevil film (yeah it's got issues), there was a scene where Ben Affleck is standing next to a gargoyle on a rooftop, and I was like, "He would make the perfect Batman." My dream came true. Finally, we got an official live action Batman who physically looked like Batman from the comics. Unfortunately, the solo movie did not happen. I'm hoping it might be revived, maybe as an HBO Max one.
Hey @AnthonysCustoms, would you say on average the mafex batman is better than the SH figuart batman ? I'm eying the Mafex Batman Hush that is supposed to come out soon, and Im using this review as a basis since it's early. I'm hoping they're better than the figuarts or the DC icons considering how by now, all the good ones of the past are almost the same price as these high end ones anyways.
You're so right Anthony that figure looks absolutely brilliant! Am just about to finally pick him up and can't wait. Yes the photoshopped upper body looked even better but oh well.
One of my favorite figures ever is the sh figuarts justice league batman . Moddes you must do is bigger ball in torso hes a little short it helps . Remove wire Paint gaunlets black Hes super poseble just since its sh figuarts hes short
I love this figure and agree with you that it’s the best sub 1/6 version. As far as batfleck vs bale....the looks are so different I can’t say which is best...fleck is a miller style which I love and bale is a more movie style. As for acting I prefer bale especially as Wayne. Although bales Batman voice is kinda goofy but not bane goofy.
Fun figure and definitely got to have the last version of batfleck. If you plan to stop collecting, but you're Batman fan, got to get this first at least lol.
And unlike the real JL cowl, the figure can turn his head. Regarding my favorite Batman, I don't compare the 2 because Ben is the perfect comic book batman and Bale is the perfect real life scenario batman. 2 different incarnations.
I thought BatBale was unbeatable, especially after the last sequel. But I must say: BatAfleck. Of course Katon is responsible that I love Batman movies. Same with Christopher Reeve and Henry Cavill as Superman. That's it. I'm old school, two favorite superheroes are good enough for me.
Yep I had that same issue with my BvS mafex batman exactly the same arm and Everything !!!! My only gripe with mafex is how cheaply and flimsy it can feel whice is so disappointing , Because the Detail in the figure is so unbelievable with the dumbest issues !!! Still a awsome piece
I really wanted Mezco to do this version You should never compare Bale and Affleck because they are in a different universe. The Dark Knight trilogy was anchored in the reality, there are no meta humans, gods, amazons.. Bale was the Bruce Wayne/ Batman "more human", young, not really dark, enjoying his playboy life. While the version of Batfleck, it's the Frank Miller version: old, dark, sinister, brutal, anchored in a fantastic universe (meta humans, aliens,...) I love both of them! Bale has proven track record, he was great. Same for Affleck, he's really good, I love his Batman, his brutality in BvS, it is really his character but I didn't like the fact that he kills and for sure they ruined him in Justice League, in BvS was nearly the perfect Batman (besides the killing)
The batman v superman mezco benafleck is the best live action batman figuire it keeps very good articulation and is jus flawless in design looks jus like the movie except the grey is a little light which is more comic accurate its a mini hot toys ... nuff said
With my sh figure, I replaced the torso dumbbell joint with a larger one and it makes the Batman the perfect size. I still prefer that figure to my medicom one. my medicom figure just does not hold up. Oh and definitely Ben Affleck is the best in my opinion
Batflick, to me he physically embodies what I imagine a cinematic Batman should be. Dark Knight is just impressive as a movie, Bale was good but not best Batman.
I respect everyone's opinions, but I just don't see how Batfleck is the best on screen Batman. In BvS he's a murdering psychopath and in Justice League he just isn't Batman at all. The DCEU ignores everything that makes Batman an interesting character. Bale's Batman is the best one by far in my opinion.
Yeah, BatBale acts more like an actual detective and his movies are 10x superior to BatFleck! BatFleck is just all “style over substance”, although in BvS BatFleck pulled some pretty thrilling, kickass moves.
@@bennys2950 I agree 100%. In terms of costume, voice, build and fighting he's the best, but everything else about Batfleck is just... not Batman in my opinion.
Which live action Batman is your favorite? I'm gonna go with Balefleck.
I prefer bale
Bale is the best
Batfleck. Bale is cool too.
Each the best in their own era.
Keaton then batfleck. This series from Medicom was quite good.
Batfleck bcos that warehouse fight in BvS was awesome.
Big bad toy store hasn’t re-stocked him in ages, I’ve been waiting forever
@@Sam-yl5tt it'll cost a fortune on ebay
@@porassrivastava8242 it's £22 on ebay I just bought one
@@beckyross3210 probably a knockoff I’ve seen lots of those be careful with the joints they break easy

This one is solid. You should also check out the Tactical Suit one from Mafex as well. Same quality as this with a wired cape
Batbales movies are obviously much better, but batflecks costume is 100 times better
Ray Dehn 🙌
How dare you speak logically
That's true but think Christopher Nolan wanted to make batman's more realistic suit and persona
Apples and oranges. Batfleck was the best comic book version of Batman. Bale was the best in terms of a ‘real life’ version. Can’t compare the two, they were both fantastic in their own right. The movies however, DCEU never stood a chance against Nolan.
WAIT for the snyder cut!!!
Wtf is wrong with the SHF one? It looks like a multiverse with good articulación lol.
PS: Batfleck and Keaton are my favorite Batmans
You need to like Christian Bale. He was a great Batman. Ben Affleck was horrible in Justice League.
He is intilt to his own opinion although I still like Chris flecks pretty coll
I just want Batfleck in a good DC film.
Batman v superman extended edition is amazing and his cameo in suicide squad was badass
K8nk too bad Affleck isn't playing batman anymore
Shamim Ahmed lmao that comment aged like milk
Shamim Ahmed lmao shut up
The Phantom Zone why?
Great review, Anthony. Thanks for taking another shot at Mafex, considering the comic Spider-Man and Venom is about to release. The tactical suit Batman from this line is also a pretty decent piece, and they added wire to the cape on that one.
BatKeaton for life!
Ben is a big tall guy in reallife, so it make sense standing taller than ironman with armor on.
And RDJ is a manlet
Love this figure! As several others have already commented, the tactical suit version from Mafex is even slightly better. Pretty much same engineering as this guy but they gave it a bendy wire cape!
*this figure is BEAUTIFUL, ordering right now definitely* 🔥🔥🔥
Too
Baleman, Batfleck, Battinson 🔥🔥🔥
Your figure is same as me the hand is easy to pop up and the hand is broken too
Was waiting for a long time for you to review this :) I have two of these because it's awesome
Costume and fight scenes -> batfleck all the way
Overall movie and character of batman
-> baleman all the way
yep, although truly not a fair comparison between the two bc the balman movies are supposed to be grounded in reality.
Jacob Cooper well the “grounded in reality” fight scenes from baleman just simply have the bad guys(with guns) not shoot batman and comes in close one at a time.

What head sculpt of Deadpool did use? Pretty sure its not the original headsculp of Deadpool juggernaut wave.
how do i tighten his knee joints. pls tell me
Great review!!! I've been wanting you to review this for sometime. It's a great looking figure!!
Your review is gettin' better and better.
One of my favorite figures ever is the sh figuarts justice league batman .
Moddes you must do is bigger ball in torso hes a little short it helps .
Remove wire
Paint gaunlets black
Hes super poseble just since its sh figuarts hes short
Like the material of the cape. You should try the tactical suit version as he comes with a wired cape and a lot of detail.
Take a look at the Tactical Suit variant. It's amazing. They even added a wired cape.
Any loose joints?
Somehow i want a the dark knight returns movie starring batfleck

After all the horrible Batman figures that gave you nightmares, you finally find the one to sweep the trauma. 😂 Great video! I'll get one too then.
BATFLECK good review
Can't wait for Mafex Comic Spider-Man and Venom. Hope you review them as well.
Any chance you can review the mafex tactical suit batman from JL?
This batman toy is my 2nd best toy
BRO, WHERE DID YOU BUY THAT FIGURE ???? I NEED ONE URGENTLY !!!
Hey man. What do u think about the Mezco Tactical suit Batman?
Bad proportions but other looks cool
Wow great lookin Batfleck figure, and I think ben affleck is the coolest batman and the 5% wider look actually looks better.
Fun figure and definitely got to have the last version of batfleck. If you plan to stop collecting, but you're Batman fan, got to get this first at least lol.
The CAPE got me 💜💜💜
And unlike the real JL cowl, the figure can turn his head. Regarding my favorite Batman, I don't compare the 2 because Ben is the perfect comic book batman and Bale is the perfect real life scenario batman. 2 different incarnations.
Except the fact that he uses guns...
3:48 wtf is that figuarts they make such good marvel figures but their dc line just looks like this 😂
@@Sam-yl5tt the mafex one was way better though
I really hope that Mafex improves on the QC area next year cuz I have a bunch of their figures pre-ordered 🤔
Quality is best
Hahaha good one(s) man. And your voice doesn't give it away at all

I really wanted Mezco to do this version

That figure:where the fuck is my eyes
Batfleck all day everyday
Wow the figure is a whole lot better than the Batman v Superman series
Christian Bale, duh. He had some of the best dc films especially the last one. Come on who's with me?
You ain't the only one
I’ve been staying away from Mafex partly because of QC issues. But I might have to grab a Batfleck!
Mafex has improved quite greatly recently. Their Homecoming Spider-Man figure was also really good.
Him or the tactical one?
The batman v superman mezco benafleck is the best live action batman figuire it keeps very good articulation and is jus flawless in design looks jus like the movie except the grey is a little light which is more comic accurate its a mini hot toys ... nuff said
Real Question what y'all think about Battinson??
MAFEX did a better job at the details in the body but I prefer the Figuarts version for Ben Affleck's face which looks better in comparison.
Man I can’t wait to get this figure
Batffleck all the way! 😎🤙🏽
Will you do the Mafex Justice League Superman?
Only if someone sends it to me. No interest in buying it.
The big comapnies should learnt a thing or 2 from Anthony's videos
I think this is the best Batman figure I have ever seen. It looks so damn realistic and as you said Figuarts is trash.
I thought you were joking when you showed the S.H figuarts batman, I thought that abomination was made by Mattel
Awesome review
Review the batman 3.0 from mafex
With my sh figure, I replaced the torso dumbbell joint with a larger one and it makes the Batman the perfect size. I still prefer that figure to my medicom one. my medicom figure just does not hold up. Oh and definitely Ben Affleck is the best in my opinion
Does the figure falls apart after you tell it you have another figure named Martha?
Iron Man is 6’1, Batman is 6’2 is that not proper scale?
Yes thats so good try to get the tactical batman mafex make it better
Batflick, to me he physically embodies what I imagine a cinematic Batman should be. Dark Knight is just impressive as a movie, Bale was good but not best Batman.
Keaton for president
I respect everyone's opinions, but I just don't see how Batfleck is the best on screen Batman. In BvS he's a murdering psychopath and in Justice League he just isn't Batman at all. The DCEU ignores everything that makes Batman an interesting character. Bale's Batman is the best one by far in my opinion.
Agreed. In JL he's not the batman.
Yeah, BatBale acts more like an actual detective and his movies are 10x superior to BatFleck! BatFleck is just all “style over substance”, although in BvS BatFleck pulled some pretty thrilling, kickass moves.
In terms of costume, build, voice, and fighting he’s obviously the best
And obviously bale had the better movies but that doesn’t make him the best Batman imo
@@bennys2950 I agree 100%. In terms of costume, voice, build and fighting he's the best, but everything else about Batfleck is just... not Batman in my opinion.
Batfleck all the way!
definitely batflict for me, I actually got the previous one right away after the movie, kind of the disappointing on that one
it's kinda funny cause with all that money, his gauntlet is just a strap on.
I think batfleck would be perfect if he didn’t kill left and right
Maybe just left
I’m more of a Christian bale fan but I like batflecks costume better
do you still like this figure?
yes
Batfleck all the way.
Bale played a better Bruce Wayne, Affleck played a better Batman. In BVS anyway, let's not talk about the train wreck that was JL.
Batfleck ✌
Gives mees my Batfleck
Christian Bale not even a debate
I think batfleck has the best bat suit but bale is the better actor in my opinion
I think that Figuart looks better.
Nice, got him for 64 bucks last week. And yes, Batfleck is the best version of movie Bats.
My figure is so much darker than this it's all black no grey whatsoever
For this figure, I say Ben Affleck!!!
It is gorgeous
Michael Keaton bro
BATFLECK!!!
*Conroy*
Better than Mezco?
Bale Batman is the best Batman movie ever created
it makes sense that hes taller than goku
BATFLECK!!!!
batfleck is best batman ever.
I'm Batman Bale
Baleman all the way
Batbale
