I've got both of those, Dave. The Hallmark statue is greatly improved when you add the blacking on the front of the cowl and the trunks with a felt pen, which John was good enough to do when he was here a few years ago.
That Dick Sprang Batman baffles me. The whole point of its existence is to sell to Batman fans who specifically are fans of Sprang's version and they screw it up. Obviously they had photo references of his art style. Mediocrity at its finest.

You know how I sometimes say it feels like my whole career has been a waste of time? Mostly, I am being facetious -- but not always. Instances like this really make me feel that way. Comics, it has long been said, are a "visual medium," and yet along come items like this "Sprang" statue (and the Superman action figure I stopped them putting my name upon), and I am reminded that for many the "visual" elements are completely superficial.
This past week I was at an antique store in LaGrange, GA. and saw this. I wasn't surprised to see a bendable Wolverine figure, but I was surprised to see one with the costume design by JB.
