If Jaxon actually offered a 89 cowl there's a chance it could be priced similar to the Begins head he did which was about, or just under $100

Tony Mei cape has always been 'meh'. We all loved it at the time but, yeah. Jaxon took over that market and even his isn't perfect but with a minamal amount of futzing, can look extraordinary on the shelf.

I'd post a Pic but I'm certain we've all already seen the effect. To hear Tony Mei is jumping back into game is great news.

Unreal had a great cape too. However, when I say I'm extremely unmoved by their 89 cowl for $300+, that's an understatement.

I'm liking Tony Mei's new cape the best as a drape and his new fabric texture pattern makes it look more like real leather.

Money spent has an expectation on the end.

If said money is spent, and I've STILL got a mediocre result.

I'll leave it to you, to educate me, on how incorrect I apparently am.

True, and you are correct. I'm talking about the chances to get mouth plates instead of a headsculpt. At the end those can be wonderful or horrendous, really expensive or affordable, we really don't know.

Got this bad boy in from kit today.
As someone who doesn’t own the dx09, I’m pretty happy with my purchase and to finally have Keaton to go with Jack. Suit texture is visible but isn't that noticeable in the detolf.
Might eventually upgrade to a drape cape or if new faceplates are offered but I like how it looks in the display. View attachment 721147

Love it.

Still doesn't look anything like Keaton.

But I love it.

i really wish they picked a better material to use to cast for the neck adapter. that plastic is brittle. its known to break with kilmer's release. he has a similar neck piece

Mr. Awesome said:

What are you doing to make a kneck adapter snap is my question.

xXJ0kerXx1 said:

idk, i havent broken mine since i never removed it. everytime I pull the head off, the head comes off. other copies the head pulls the neck piece with.

but ive seen other people break theirs. it breaks at the socket where you insert the peg. its not the usual rubber/soft plastic

Just ordered Jaxon’s cape. It’ll probably come in before Batman does.

Mr. Awesome said:

Took mine 8 months lol

But many people have gotten theirs in 4 or 5.

BoricuaHec01 said:

Did it really? Assuming it’ll take longer since everyone’s ordering this cape. But I ordered a drape cape for my black suit Superman that took about two months.

Mr. Awesome said:

Yeah, I don't think there's any method to the madness. I suspect Jaxon is on it with a batch in anticipation for the 2.0. But that was my assumption when I ordered it during the announcement of the 2.0...

I’m not sure why I tend to wait last minute on everything.

Mr. Awesome said:

These things happen. Just know, if it's through Kit (which I assume it is?) you'll get it. I just placed an order last week for another one in anticipation for Returns Bats.
