Gripping his batarang tightly, the Dark Knight looks ready to swoop down from the stone gargoyle and strike criminals that prowl the Gotham city streets. His powerful presence is meticulously captured through his defined muscularity, dramatic folds of his windswept cape and detailed texture of his suit and armour. The fine detailing of the 9-inch pewter figurine is accentuated through polishing and buffing.
