$300 seems a bit ridiculous! 
Overall its a nicely done bust though on most levels, the jaw does seem a tad big but doesnt detract too much.
I wont be buying, but its still a nice piece

Nice, but not $300 nice.
Not bad, although from that picture it almost looks like the sides of his head are concave.

I guess the "legendary scale" bust idea was taken...
But I think he looks pretty good - not my cuppa, but nice none the less.

Wow. I like it a lot, but agreed that it's price tag shouldn't be $300.
Also looks like he has something stuck in his teeth (right backside of his jaw) and he's
trying to get it out with his tongue.

I just realized the description says it's mixed media, but that bust certainly doesn't look like it. Perhaps they took the description from the PF Batman?

Actually no, that bust is indeed mixed media. The slightly shiny gray shirt is real fabric (I'm guessing the head & cowl/cape are a solid piece that plugs into the top of the shoulders, to 'trap' the fabric) and the bat symbol is a pleather-type of material.
On another interesting note, this piece was sculpted digitally by an artist named Kolby Jukes, then outputted and refined by the great Oluf Hartvigson.

Is digital sculpting something that's done a lot by DCD? Or is this something new they're doing with the 1:2 busts? Is it supposed to cut down on the sculpt and approval time?
Any chance you're working on one of the future releases? Say, oh, I don't know...Wonder Woman?

This is not a nice flattering picture of the bust. It makes Batman come off looking old and sad.
Almost looks as though Batman George W. Bush is underneath the mask!

btw BBTS has it priced at 225 USD. So that's much more appropriate. And if BBTS is offering it for that, chances are it can be had for 10-20 bucks cheaper elsewhere.

I'm just not liking the head sculpt at all. Especially the weird unrealistic triangular eyes and small lips. Glad I'm not a huge Batman fan.

Chin is way too big. Expression looks like he is thinking way to hard.

I think that I'm going to go ahead and preorder this one. $300 is too much but $230 works for me. Looks like the Joker is next in line.
The QT 360 turnaround of the Batman Bust made me decide to take the plunge:
