Batman versus Catwoman Statue

I believe that this is DC Direct's third in their series of "Classic Confrontations." It features Batgirl versus Catwoman - a confrontation that I read about ALL the time. Note sarcasm.

Manufacturer: DC Direct
Designed By Matt Haley
Sculpted By Andy Bergholtz
Dimensions: 8” high x 11” wide x 5” deep
Edition Size: Limited Edition
Second Release Date: July 2009
Retail Price: $224.99

Point in favor:
~ Capes are what suspend each character in the air.
~ Statue is built in 3 different pieces - Batgirl, Catwoman, and bank vault.)

Points against:
~ When you think of a classic confrontation, you typically don't think of Batgirl versus Catwoman.
~ Compared to the Batman and Superman statues, these seem very bland.
~ Batgirl lacks any facial expressions during this classic confrontation. If you compare it to the Batman or Superman confrontation, it makes you wonder is she really that determined.

Recommendation: Pass

If you can still find it, I would recommend the Batman versus the Joker or even the Superman versus Darkseid.
