Batman Vs Superman Movie: DC Reveals SDCC Statues – Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman And Ben Affleck’s Batman Costumes AMAZING! [PHOTOS]

It's time for geeks all over the world to drool over new material from comic books and superhero films as the iconic San Diego Comic-Con, the biggest of its nature, opens, and DC Comics has some of the most interesting things going on with two films coming out next year, including the "Batman vs Superman" movie.

During last year's Comic-Con, the "Batman vs Superman" movie was revealed as the "Man of Steel" sequel, prompting fans to wonder about new casting choices, after two-time Oscar winner Ben Affleck was announced - and so fans are eagerly awaiting this year's DC revelations.

According to Yahoo! News, the "Batman vs Superman" movie is not only getting its own panel, but DC Entertainment is focusing a lot of its attention on the film's memorabilia, including Superman-Batman Funko Toys, a Batmobile and even a Wonder Woman Barbie based on Gal Gadot's likeness - and now it's time for the massive statues of the three most iconic DC superheroes.

These new "Batman vs Superman" movie statues, measuring 12 inches and made out of resin, feature Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman in their "Dawn of Justice" costumes and are currently on display at the SDCC and will be available next January for sale, retailing at $150 each to have one of the leaders of the Justice League in your own living room.

Collider reports that the Caped Crusader's attire for the "Batman vs. Superman" movie statue is "clearly inspired" by "The Dark Knight Returns," and it was used specifically for the time he goes toe-to-toe with Superman, played by Henry Cavill - it's the same batsuit featured in the teaser.

According to Comic Book, the upcoming film, set for a late-March release worldwide, will see Affleck's Batman concerned over Superman's great powers, left unchecked and possibly endangering humankind.

Besides the "Batman vs Superman" movie, DC Entertainment will also see the release of "Suicide Squad" next year, starring the likes of Jared Leto as the Joker, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Will Smith as Deadshot and Cara Delevingne as Enchantress.
