Dravenheart has posted up another comic book character gem with his custom version of Batman Beyond

“Seen some great Batman Beyond customs before and decided to jump on it myself. Mostly because I had a spare set of arms from Spiderman 2099. And in a lot of images I saw his belt looked quite close to Scarlet Spider’s. And when you throw in a Batman head, it was the obvious project”.

Apocalyptic Customs brings us his vision of a 1:18th sculpted Clayface! The streets (and sewers) of Gotham have never been safe, but even Batman has to be breathing a little easier now that one of his most feared rivals has made his way into the Joe-verse. What an outstanding figure!

From the man himself: “Now for a figure that has been in the progress stage for awhile now and is my first time sculpting. Also, to my knowledge, it has not been made in this scale ever before. It is Clayface!!! ”

FROM THE DESK OF STEEL:

Welcome to another Riveting Review where we’re going to take a look at the Mattel All Star “52” Series 1 Batman figure.

I am a HUGE Bat-Fan and admittedly wasn’t happy with the idea of a reboot, so much so that completely avoided reading any of it until just a few weeks ago. That said, I have become a fan of most of the characters thus far, especially with Batman.

This latest figure depicts Batman in his “52” gear, which has more hints of armor than prior versions of his costume with the exception of the Azrael era. I personally like the look of the armored gauntlets, boots and chestplates, but we’ll get to these comparisons later on.
