Bullock looks fine apart from the spot on his coat.

Bullock is a slob. What do you expect? He probably rolled over on an Oreo.

...Or in-hand pics, like these? I know they're possibly factory-rejected, but they can't be too far off from what we're getting. Bullock looks fine apart from the spot on his coat.

LMAO!
The eBay seller told these are rejected figs, so we shouldn't worry right now; that's what I meant.
And I agree, Bullock looks fine, which makes us think just how great the actual figure will look.

Still have most of my BTAS figs and Batmobile for sale. check my FS post in my Sig.

So the first Joker (and the Mad Love "repaint") had thin little, rounded outlines around the eyes - which IMHO looked completely off to the TV appearance - but Bullock gets eyeliner to spare - which I don't ever recall seeing on the screen. Oh and they're really triangular too. Like Joker should have been.

Really?

Yeah the eyes on Bullock have bugged me since his first reveal. Not sure why they have done that as it is a great looking sculpt.

Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Bullock does have this kinda "mean" eyes, with sort of a "shadow" around it.

I think the fig looks pretty much great.

Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Man I wish I could drink your Koolaid sometimes WGD, even your reference shots show how wrong the figure is but you still can't or won't see it

Yes he does have the black outline but it shouldn't really be as thick or as sharp as the figure depicts.

Bullock's eyes have looked like that since they showed off the prototype at Toyfair in February.

Why only start complaining now?

Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

True and I didn't like them then either (still getting him of course!)

Might have a go at fixing them as he is a great looking figure apart from that.

OMG! The lips! Botox? Ha ha ha!

Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

He is ok but it just seems he should look a little more like this IMO.

Re: DC Collectibles doing Batman The Animated Series figures!!!!!

Oh wow, those colors look much better! I may have to repaint mine just like that.

On another note, sure enough, The Girls Night Out pack is being solicited next month for a February 2017 release. TNI just put up their article today.

Dreamlandcomics.com has the deluxe Batmobile for $140 and free shipping (to me at least). I purchased my Batmobile from them last year, and I recommend them.

Just seen the Bat Signal and new Batmobile at a local hobby shop. The silver is sooo much nicer looking and the Bat signal is bigger than I expected. It too looks really nice. Ugh I have no room or money for them but now I really want them. Especially the signal!

I must admit I am looking forward to this set now. I purchased the original Batmobile and sat on the fence about this one for a while......

LMAO, pug! I know what you mean! It's just that when things are kinda minor, like Bullock's "eyeliners", I just look at the whole thing, you know? In all, Bullock is a pretty damn good figure.
Yes, I agree, the figure seems to have excessive eyeliner, compared to the source material. But it's minor to me and doesn't affect the overall look of the figure, IMO. That's why I didn't even complain about it and went on to defend it.
I might, however, remove a bit of the eyeliner, making it thinner. Pretty simple.

Did you happen to see if they've fixed those horrible "holes" and if the overall paint is more solid?

Seriously, the only thing that TRULY bothered me in this line is the Batmobile. I never got over those holes and the poor finish on the vehicle.
Thing is fragile as $h!t (I'm terrified of opening the canopy and scratching it)
The paint is uneven (full of marks)
Those holes.... UGH.

No, these are not "minor" things. This is quality control issue. Too lazy.

It was a total disappointment to me.

The size of the batmobile is what bothers me the most, it's too tall

the "fale taste" of authenticity? xD
I'm not really collecting these figures (only have Batman for now) but I think this deluxe pack is a must.
and I don't bother a lot those "holes" in the fenders. Hey, this line is SOOOOOO perfect! (Your Words )
