This is basically a re release of the Wings of Redemption 2005 statue. The only difference is the original is much taller and the paint app is similar to the smaller version.
I have the original release from 2005. Unfortunately, i no longer have the (admittedly cheap) base and holding peg for the foot which absolutely pails in comparison to the base for this one, but it's BEAUTIFUL as a standalone piece. The only problem I have with the 2005 release is that, as was stated in the video, it's very temperamental when it comes to it standing up by itself because of the wing design/weight. Overall, this is a very nice re-release though. But where it fails in my opinion is that I don't think it quite has the depth-of-detail that the original has. And the vibrancy of the red in the new statue takes away for the "realism" of the piece...making it feel much more comic book-like as well as them "cleaning up" the wings and taking away the applications that made them look a bit dirty and the suit accents feel rust-covered.
I have the real/actual Older 12 inch tall version. I had to return this (the on on the video) . I thought it would actually be 12 inches tall like my older version..
Very good review of my favorite character.
Please explain to me that how come every Mc Farlane 12" statues are only less than 10"???

Thank you for this nice video !!!
So any update on your customization for this figure?
Finished it but haven’t made the video yet. Hopefully, I’ll have that up soon.
Does the new statue have a soft plastic like the previous one?
It’s actually firmer than the original.
How does it scale with the McFarlane Hush Batman 12 inch statue, if you have it?
I don’t have it unfortunately.
Hey, how about the plastic? does it feel cheap or did they use a better quality material?
Very good quality!!!
Are the wings removable?
No
So they outright lied about it being 12 inches
