Tilting Willy’s head back reveals the secrets hidden inside, which consist of a dial, a button, and a coin slot.

At least, though, it’s not glossy it has a nice satin finish that absorbs just enough light. This piece is just flat bronze throughout. The bust as it appears in the show has more of a patina on it with a ruddy finish and darker and lighter regions. My biggest complaint is the coloration, which more closely resembles a clean bronze color.

It’s a match in every discernible way, from the proportion of the base to the shoulders to the angle of the shirt collar, the placement of the buttons on the shirt, and the expression on Shakespeare’s face. This piece is quite different from our usual reviews there’s no paint job to judge here, nor are there questions as to how authentic it is to a given character.Īs a re-creation of the bust from the show, this beast of a mantelpiece is actually really good. Diamond Select says the bust, sculpted by Paul Harding, is 20-inches tall, but our measurements put it closer to 18-inches tall, and about a foot wide at the shoulders. We’ve reviewed a few busts here at Batman News, but this one is the biggest by far. Diamond Select has you covered with their offering based on the classic 1966 Batman TV series, a replica of the bronze Shakespeare bust that Bruce Wayne uses to open his secret passage to the Batcave on the show. You can go for maximum cool with SecretLab’s great-looking Dark Knight gaming chair, or you can go classic. Instead, though, we can make our living spaces feel a bit more like that of the Dark Knight. We’re not going to be gliding off buildings or permanently crippling henchmen anytime soon.

He’s an obscenely wealthy man in peak physical and mental condition. It’s not easy to make yourself feel like Batman.
