Drifter looks stunning but I cannot stop looking at how disproportionate the head is of the body. PT's set was clearly made with the HT's headsculpt in mind, I hope Topo delivers a set with sizing for the InArt one.

That’s what I thought as well, head looks tiny in the body. Having the HT body swap helps but for perfection having topo would better overall. Hopefully it wouldn’t be too expensive.

Yeah, as I said in the Drifter thread:

PT's has the length of the jacket wrong, it should reach the wrists when putting down the arms.
The material looks way more accurate in Topo's set.
The scarf is supossed to be greyish / white instead of blue.
The zippers are not to scale.
The hands texture look like plastic, throwing away the realism the headsculpt provides.

I guess PT's jacket is a more stylized version, looks better to the eye. The actual jacket is huge so Bruce can wear most of his batsuit below it.

I have the PT set ordered with Giantoy but might cancel and wait for Topo's to go up with Kit. I do feel the InArt BW sculpt scales a bit smaller so the Topo set will be better for that. I might see if anyone is parting out the BW body and hands so I can use it for the drifter look. I as of now have to take Batman apart to pad the biceps so it doesn't look off.

To those who did the mod on the arms how hard is it to remove the suit. Seems easier then the HT but I want to be sure.

I hope the Topo set includes a set of hands with and without bandages.
The footage from the camera test that is mostly used as the reference for the outfit doesn't include the bandages, while in the movie he does use them.

Where are batteries for the flash light? Taken everything out of the box and not come across them

It’s pretty darn easy.
I detailed how I did mine in the second half of this post

Using tweezers to move the zippers is probably the best strategy.

There are no batteries. Think you just need to push the bulb part into the metal part to activate the light?

Not sure on how it’s activated as mine was defective.

Very easy. Much easier than the HT:

Thanks man!

There are two stitches at the top of the double zips on the back of the flightsuit (to stop the zipper pulls coming off). Simply snip these and you can undo the zips 90% of the way down. That then gives you enough excess to pull the arms and suit down and do what you need.

I added some electrical tape to the bicep and then taped some foam around the elbow joint and forearm to still allow movement.

Extremely easy!

Arms are SO skinny:

That is the other thing. There is not bulb in the flashlight

Thanks. Worked it out now. Battery looks similar to the one used in a custom kryptonite spear I used to have.

Gotta find it when I get home. But it should be the same as Gandalf's staff for the crystal.

Luisenigma1 · Sep 10, 2024

I Found it, it was indeed the bulb in the flashlight but mine doesn't want to turn on no matter how much I press it.

Anyone waiting on the standard sculpted like myself?

I'll try and take some pics in the natural light later. Overall I feel it's a tremendous figure but not the most user friendly! That damn belt is so fiddly to get on and then you constantly have pieces popping off.

No tool for moving the eyes is ridiculous. How hard do you have to push the sticks to get them to move? I'm scared of breaking them.

The detail on the bat computer especially the screen is really impressive. However, because the screen is so heavy the whole thing tips back whenever you have it open. All they needed to do was make the bottom piece slightly heavier! How did that get through R&D?

I have two left fists and no right fist. Hopefully Kit can fix that for me. No damaged arms, bent ears or any of the other QC issues mentioned here thankfully.

He stands really well on his own. Get his weight distributed correctly and he'll never fall, on or off the stand. Get it wrong and those magnets will not hold him up, so what's the point? Just package every figure with a clear acrylic pole and crotch cradle.

On the one hand the attention to detail you see in the suit, the proportions, accessories etc is incredible. At the same time the numerous QC issues and simple missteps are frustrating. Hopefully these things are ironed out and they improve with each release.

Forgot I had pictures of my Battinson with the @Kit Chen custom cape lingering on my phone.
So here they are, its a exponential improvement on the stock cape and elevates what is already an incredible figure even higher.

Exactly how mine was. I pushed, pulled, squeezed, twisted. Best it did was a very very slight blue haze. Was completely defective.

Woooohooooo my sculpted Batman from Sugo Toys is processing. Should have it on Friday or Monday the latest

This is the flash light battery I took out of mine.

If you search for fishing float batteries on eBay it brings up lots of similar looking batteries. Not sure of the exact model number though.
