Re: 1/6 Hot Toys - VGM18 - Batman: Arkham City: Batman Collectible Figure (Specs + Pi
As far as Arkham Batman goes, though, it's kind of complicated. I, personally, don't have some of the issues that others have, and, as a release, I think he looks amazing, but I think that one of the dangers of taking so long on something like this is that it builds, perhaps, unrealistic expectations. I'm a devoted Arkham fanboy, and I've played those games so many times that I know every one of the gadgets and weapons by heart, so, while he's a solid release, the one I had in my mind was so much more elaborate.
That's of no fault to Hot Toys, but, like I said, when you wait as long as we did, your imagination gets the best of you. Alternate LED-lit "detective mode" heads, cryptographic sequencers with little, clear plastic holograms like the Predator figures, sonic batarangs, the REC, freeze grenades, and so on, and so forth are some of the many things I was expecting.
