It was. It stuck out like a sore thumb in the film and felt shoehorned in.
Apparently there was a larger Joker subplot ala Silence Of The Lambs, but it was cut. Maybe if they release that cut, or just the scenes, it'll flow better. But even then, the scene itself was poorly made.
Estimate schedule Q1-Q2, it won't appear in Q1 due to local covid outbreak just after the chinese new year holiday
The dongguang area is locked down for two weeks now, 90% 1/6 factory located in dongguang area, so everything is frozen right now
Hopefully Iconiq could release it in Q2
I see. Well, all we can do is wait now.
Thanks a ton for the quick reply; I really appreciate it!
It's possible I watch too much porn.
A-T-M? Come on...
All these years later and it still amazes me how different he can look from photo to photo or videos. I don't know if it's because of the makeup or his acting, or maybe he lost or gained weight during the filming, but his face can look so round in one shot, then in others it looks more chiseled. You can see a bit of like Ledger in some shots, but in other photos, nothing at all. No wonder some sculptors have such a hard time capturing the likeness.
It really is quite amazing. I've said it before, but I never manage to see Ledger in that performance. My brain cannot connect him with the guy in Knight's Tale at all. I know it's primarily the makeup, but it is a testament to the performance and general role itself too.
Imagine the great films he'd be making now.
What do we think the chances are that InArt will do a Bale Batman? I’m considering grabbing a DX19 to go with this guy and Two-Face 2.0, but if InArt makes one I’d rather wait and see how that turns out. I know they said they want to do more Nolan Batman figures, but their next figure they want to do in that like being Bane doesn’t give me a lot of hope that he’ll come any time soon.
They mentioned in that livestream that they'll do more TDK figures. So I think a Bale Batman would come pretty soon, all things considered. Me, I've already paid off like half the DX19, so I can't go cancelling now. The QS could be an improvement, but I don't care for that specific version to lose the ~100€ on the cancellation, then add another figure to my slate.
But, were I you, I would wait to see what they do with it. Worst case scenario, JND will probably come out with another Baleman too I figure.
payment plan available for everything on site, but once again we can only do it manually for now
We will upgrade our site to provide 6 months payment plan option, the programming company is temporary shut down due to local covid outbreak, guess it will take few more months to complete..
When you say "payment plan available for everything on site" you mean literally everything, present and future, right? Like, if I PO this or some coming HT from you guys I can set up a monthly payment plan? Individually for each figure/order, or a sum at the end of each month?
I'm asking because personally, it helps me to have payment plans in all of my Pre-Orders. So if you do offer that option, and I can send my monthly payments through PayPal or something, then I'll start making more Pre-Orders from you guys. I just want to get that Iconiq Bateman first to see if it'll really pass through customs undetected. Because in my country there's a ~25% tax that is then raised to ~33% when the Post Offices get their hands on them, so I want to make sure it works before I go all in.
Very, very good news however.
RE TW: I've made some orders from them. One time something went wrong while I was in checkout, and they wanted to charge me for two figures, but with some emails that was rather quickly solved. The shipping charges have become insane (I bought a Thanos for ~180€, and the shipping was 100+) though, and unless you're going with DHL, it'll take ~2 months to arrive. I've not placed an order with them since, so I don't know much about their state.
However, I am sad to hear about all this because it was an easy way for me to find older figures and have the guarantee that I was buying from a store and not a random eBay user. I still need older stuff like Dooku, Maul and the such, and I was planning on using them again in the future, but with these stories I'm hearing, I'm getting scared. I have lots of places to place my POs, but it's the figures I missed on and want to buy that I'm now left with no option for.
