If these go well, I'm hoping to finish off "TDK Trilogy" Play Arts gives us: BEGINS Batman (w/ Demon Bat alternate head sculpt) Crane Ra's Two Face (w/ Dent sculpt) And really pushing it: a Gordon and Blake

Re: HOT TOYS : MMS DX 12 - The Dark Knight Rises - BATMAN / BRUCE WAYNE Full Specs & WOW ... Now THERE'S a Batman !!! That puts the Hot Toys sculpts to shame. They did great on the BEGINS, just could never iron the kinks out with the Bale sculpt and the look in TDK / RISES suit / cowl.

DarkMagic, I wasn't trying to sound like my post was dripping with sarcasm. I appreciate the correction.

Both face sculpts on this one are still fantastic, and extremely accurate to Ledger's Joker. In fact I prefer this sculpt to the first DX version. Bank Robber and DX 2 are the best Joker sculpts I've ever seen based on Ledger's likeness. The DC Direct one had great likeness too, but the hair...

They sell these at an asian import store in the mall near me. They are WAY bigger figures than I expected. Closer to 8 or 9 inches.

Dude is a shrewd business man. Takes his likeness seriously, too it seems. I know Toy Biz didn't get it for their 89 toys. I don't know how much Kenner had to pay, but Hot Toys and Kenner are the only ones to have featured his likeness. And we know Hot Toys had to pay through the nose, but...

Nicholson made a brilliant demand with the B89 production team and studio. He knew the studio needed him to provide big name credibility to the project. So, he worked out a big contract (small by today's standards) but he negotiated in a cut of the film / franchises on screen profits. Which...

Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure Disagree. It looks great on the page, but the wrestler gimmick is corny as all get out. Nolan re-invented the character in the BEST possible way. Both in character and aesthetic. He's a melting pot of the Mutant Leader...

Legends never do ... Nolan and Bruce succeeded :hi5: :lol @ then mentioning the atrocious Ra's Al Ghul from Arkham City.

Since you're such a huge Batman movie buff, like myself, have you ever seen full pictures of the housing department for the Bat suit from TDK and RISES? Next to the suit he has all these other weapons. And one has always fascinated me, and I'm upset they never used in the movies. He has this...

Alonzo from Training Day Travis Bickle from Taxi Driver Maverick from Top Gun Judge Dredd from Dredd (2012) Swamp Thing from Return of Swamp Thing Maximus from Gladiator Bond (Daniel Craig) from Casino Royale Bond (Pierce Brosnan) from Goldeneye

Re: HOT TOYS : MMS DX 12 - The Dark Knight Rises - BATMAN / BRUCE WAYNE Full Specs & Those sculpts just don't do it. Eyes are way too big.

Similar I can buy, but I wouldn't call them exactly alike. All Batman suits have some form of similarity. It would be like saying the Forever Panther suit is the exact same as the B89 suit. To the trained eye, they aren't exactly alike. The Sonar Suit is overly mechanical looking. The...

Re: Movie Masters "Man of Steel" Figure I hope this isn't how the final MM Zod will look like ... I REALLY prefer his suit in the DC Direct statue. Everything else about this Superman figure is absolutely fantastic. Hopefully they use the better grade plastic from TDK stuff and not the even...

Sorry :dunno

Honestly, I really dig the Panther suit from Batman Forever, sans the obvious gay overtones like the nipples and molded ***. It's a little over the top and glorifying of the male anatomy, but it's essentially a more exaggerated version of the B89 suit. Hate the Sonar Suit, and shame for anyone...

Excuse me Graham wasn't the "suit designer" obviously those nods go to Ringwood and Hemming, respectively. I apologize if my brief and quick, albeit technically wrong summarization of Churchyard's role in the design process ruffled the feathers of accuracy hounds. I'm sure Graham played more...

Also, what I would consider personally ... Bane's most iconic and memorable look from the film. Not that I wasn't a fan of the different jackets he wore, culminating in the revolutionary / dictator look in the 3rd act. But I prefer him in the merc vest and outfit, with physique poking through...

The Play Arts TDK trilogy stuff is amazing. They look more accurate and detailed / accurate to the source material than the Mattel stuff, while still putting their own customized exaggerated signature on the license. Might end up trying to get these. Depending on the price and availability...

Makes perfect sense. Because there is clear cut visual difference between the fresh custom suit from BEGINS and the worn down suit at the start of The Dark Knight. Easily my three favorite Bat-suits 1) B89 2) TDK / RISES 3) BEGINS Batman Begins could've been even better I feel if the suit...
