Re: Hot Toys VGM Series Batman: Arkham City - Batman Collectible Figure TEASED for SD

I'm in the process of cancelling a few things, so that i can make room in the budget. I have already let Winter Soldier and Amazing Spider-Man 2 go. So I think I may be good to go for both, especially if i use all my reward points on one of these in order to bring it down a bit. But I want both. I am a Batman whore(according to my wife), so I can't let these slide by. I am trying not to even look at the SSC Batman, cause I don't want to be tempted.

I am a Batwhore too! Only played with Batman and Wolverine figs when I was a kid. Though for some reason, I'm not really into the Nolan Batman figs. More towards the BTAS, comics and games. PAK Variants with Steampunk, Samurai, Spartan, Cowboy, and Tetsuya Batman are definite purchases for me.

Of course!

Legends of Batman was definitely my favorite figure line for Batman. Viking Batman is uber cool too. Hahaha. Now that PAK are making their own variants of those as well. Check the Play Arts Kai thread. Now theres this Arkham Bats. Woohoo!

If that combination were possible, I'd buy it. I'd get a blue and grey Neal Adams/Aparo style 70s version too. The rubber suit on the Hot Toys figure isn't doing any thing for me, but I love the headsculpt. Likewise, the Sideshow suit is fantastic but I don't like the headsculpt. Go figure.

I actually prefer the rubber to the cloth. Never been a fan of cloth. I think it's hard to pull off well on a figure.

So, what are the odds where this winds up being an 89 scenario, where Joker is revealed and put up for PO at the same time as Batman?

Reminds me of this:

Also, DiFabio, I think the reason it looks somewhat awkward is that it retains the Arkham proportions on a regular body. I don't know if it's too far out, but could you try shortening the ears, and maybe trimming the top of the head, a bit?

That is beautiful. You nailed it, with those little alterations. Well done, sir.

Wow nice mock up. I would buy that black and grey version in a heartbeat.

Re: Hot Toys VGM Series Batman: Arkham City - Batman Collectible Figure TEASED for SD

I would also grab that black/grey version. Looks great!

I also hope Joker is shown soon.

I wish I haz photoshop skillz just to troll people with releases hahaha. But damn that black and grey bats would definitely be insta-po for me too. Awesome!

It's not a good sign for a figure where fans are shopping the prototype into something they want to see.

But nobody on this forum is ever satisfied with anything.

Sadly, I'm pretty easy to please but I know what you're saying.

Im satisfied...I really love batman in any form. So most people is kind of bashing arkham batman but I love it. And I think even though the suit is rubber it will hold up.

This is the Batman figure I've been wanting for my collection. This would be a definite first day PO.
