1/6 Hot Toys - VGM18 - Batman: Arkham City: Batman Collectible Figure

[EarlHickey98]

Beautiful, looks amazing.

I'll be pre-ordering this for sure, Arkham City is still IMO one of the best games made.

I think Rory had the only DX09 with leaking oil on the rubber (around the belt area, if I remember correctly?) . Maybe there were a few more people, but it wasn't a widespread issue at all.

I'm sure this figure will be fine.

No, it never progressed beyond residue inside the belt. An oil "sweat". I actually have 3 DX09 figures, and c'mon guys it doesn't hold a pose at all, and this is coming from someone who LOVES it. The rubber is too thick for him to keep his arms up over any extended amount of time. If the rubber is lighter on this to help posability then god help us all...

Unfortunately I also have Watchmen Comedian, his harness is now a puddle of goo and I've seen the boots melt on one of my Nolan Bats. I also have a Robocop ED209 (2014 edition) and had to sit by while it's dome melted, in a matter of weeks after purchase last year! So forgive my hesitation with this one, it could be fine, it could be a cluster**** in 2 months time.

Looks great though.

Can't believe it's finally here after all this time. Bats looks absolutely awesome!

 

[Platty]

I love this! Looks great here. Beast.

THE DARK KNIGHT

 

[Rorywan]

Amazing pictures/Photoshops!

 

[Snake Plissken]

Not really. And you can't pose the thing.

I'll never understand why people need to put Batman in the most dynamic poses...

 

[Snake Plissken]

How the **** are there still people saying that he looks "fat?" I'm left sitting here, dumbfounded, and the only thing I can say to those people is...

Blind idiots... he's supposed to be beefcake as hell. He's a walking tank in the Arkham games.

Aww c'mon man, don't do this to the DX09! The real Keaton suit could barely move either. Besides, the rubber holds up and he poses just fine for me.

It's become quite tiresome the whining about pose-ability, mainly with Batman. Like, what ****ing pose do you think is absolutely essential in owning it? Just standing ****ing straight, with his head down is enough.

I didn't get any oil, but his sneakers have a slight white residue on them.

Keaton's suit was a walking statue in the movie anyway. This one though seems to be perfectly capable of doing kicks, not that I'd want to.

I've left mine in that pose since I've gotten it, and in no way am I upset about it.

I think he'll look better if you could drape his cape over his shoulders.

That would be cool but I don't think he ever did that in the game.

^ Several poses from Maglor, He has great pics of DX09.

 

[WhoaItsJBot]

This ended up great, he looks massive. The rubber suit still looks off in the extreme poses but I don't do all that so it won't bother me.

A little concerned about the rubber deterioration comments though.

 

[Hellion]

The pics looks great but in most of the shots if you look close the belt is floating above the undies, you see the black of the "underwear" stop then the grey of the suit then the belt.

 

[Platty]

Yes the belt needs pulling down in most of the pictures.

 

[Cammo]

I'll probably won't resist and pick one up if I can find one for around 200-215 EUR.
I'm almost 100% sure we'll see Joker at SDCC this year. They don't have a lot else to show for DC.

 

[Rock83]

Turned out great!Shame it's a rubber suit,but i guess they couldn't have done it any other way to capture the accurate look.

I won't spend 200+ on a figure that has a full rubber suit.Would be too scared to lift any arm or leg as i have had nothing but bad experience with that in the past.

 

[Darth Zangetsu]

Are we getting a wired cape with this fig, or are the reviewers just manipulating it?

 

[Rorywan]

>Can't pose

yes, yes, yes. I'm well aware of all those, I used to post with Maglor very frequently in that thread. It can't keep a pose is what i should have said. You can just about get it to stay still for a photo, before it's limbs drift back down from pressure of the rubber suit.
