What is the difference between D-Arts and Figuarts?

Pretty much just the name, honestly. D-Arts was Bandai's name for a subline specifically made for video game characters, but they aren't really meaningfully distinct from the Figuarts line, to the point that D-Arts styled figures have just continued to be released under the Figuarts line ever since the D-Arts line died off. Including stuff like S. H. Figuarts ChaosDukemon, which is literally just a recolor of the D-Arts Dukemon figure.

That Cape on Batman looks so good. Hoping it feels just as good when messing around with it.

Batman does look good but I don't know if I should pick him up or not because my Mafex one isn't too bad. Hmm...

my MAFEX bats is a worthless, floppy, pile of shit that I regret ever buying, with every fiber of my being.

Yeah, I got lucky with mine I think. One shoulder likes to pop out but I don't recall there being any other major issues with it. I even got the Batpod to go with him.

I could handle it if it was just the shoulders popping out (which they do on mine), but the biggest problem is the knees, ankles, and hips just will not hold a pose, so he can't stand, can't kneel, can't do anything.

I pre-ordered Catwoman and the Bat-Pod, and ended up selling them as soon as I had them in hand, unopened, because I didn't want to risk another crappy figure.

Did you get the second version, or the original release? I wanted to get the 2.0, in case it was better, but once it was out, I just didn't dare waste money on the line again.

[Infinitevirtue]

I got the first version. Pre-ordered when it was first available. Haha.

[ryan]

Same. I'm jealous that yours is good, then.

In any case, I'll be trying to get the Figuarts, I rather like the Injustice Batman, so it will be nice to have a good Nolan Bats figure.

Meanwhile I hope we'll see Keaton Bat.
