I can't believe it but he showed up today.Here's a couple pics. First impression is there's good and definitely some bad. Some unexpected bad. But for now the good. He's impressive on the shelf for sure and the cowl sculpt and cape material are near perfection.



Great stand!
Yes, I pretty much came to the same conclusion when I first got him. Mixed bag, but the good out ways the bad I think. I won't repeat the same issues again as I posted back then but I will say, he really grows on you.
He is just so damn impressive when posed correctly. Just a shame the overall package is so inconsistent.

:clap

1) Awesome display!
2) Lower the belt.
3) WHAT BAD?!
4) Lower the belt.








































5) Lower the belt.
 
Just unpacked him. I was too damn excited to play with any of the accessories. One thing I don't already don't like are the magnets. They're a ***** to futz properly. I have already attempted the Rory belt mod. Thanks for that Rory! Cape is pretty decent. It would definitely benefit from one of Lance's custom capes. Can't wait for that. I was only able to spend a few minutes taking photos with one of the sculpts, off to watch the new Bourne movie in a few minutes.

Some cheap accessories, dodgy plastic used in places, magnets are ridiculously stupid ( I got rid of themin 5 mins ) base is cheap. Groin needs padding, belt needs fixing. And as with all releases, the magnets pop off the belt accessories and need re-gluing. Easy stuff, I didn't have any QC issues. And gauntlets need a polish. That would be it for me. I actually like the cape when futzed properly, it hangs really well. And personally I love the rubber suit.
 
...I think Maglor is going to say it... You are aren't you Mags?.. Say it...!


The belt is TOO LOW!:lol

Literally the first thing that came to my mind. :rotfl


I didn't think it was possible, but that really is too low. :lol

what bad :panic:

don't leave us hanging. :(

There are just a few things with a $450 1/4 scale replica that I thought shouldn't be.

1) I knew the base was gonna be crap but, sheesh, is it ever. Not only in design but construction. Super thin plastics were used. A very cheezy aluminum type metal. Big, ugly screws that are a different sheen than the aluminum and an awful looking metal "BATMAN" decal on the front which is already starting to peel off.

2) Probably not a problem for many but the magnetic cape clips drive me nuts. I can't touch the figure without them shifting, twisting or completely coming off altogether. And right outa the box the magnet had broken off the clip. I had to glue it back in.

3) The choice of gauntlet material. Instead of a semi rigid plastic like HT's 1:6 version EB chose to go with a soft vinyl. :gah: One of the fins on mine is already warped. And there's no pushing it back and it holding shape. Not with this material.

4) The cowls are sculpted in the same cheap soft vinyl. Reminds me of the kiddy toys I used to have as a child. One of my other cowls is hoplessly warped at the back due to this material choice.

5) And back to the cowls. The forward stare I have on display now is a beautiful matte/satin finish. Really no shine on it to speak of and it's gorgeous. The other two are near gloss compared to it. Again, I believe it's due to the poor material choice.

6) Some of the weapons and accesories again feel like they're molded in soft vinyl. They just don't have the clean finish and nice paint apps that something in this scale should have.

Overall the figure is impressive on display but there are a lot of little things, some I mentioned and some I didn't, that may be being overlooked due to the newness of the scale that would have been immediately noticed in the more familiar 1:6 scale.

I'm glad I got this one and it'll be fun photographing it but I;m not as impressed overall as some have been.
 
@coco: can you post pics for problem number 3? the fin?
I actually like that because that way, the cape wouldn't get any damage

One would never pull the cape hard enough over hard gaunlets to puncture the cape me thinks. :dunno

There hasn't been one punctured cape reported with any of the 1/6 Batman.
 
in regard to the warped items, can you not do the ol' hot water trick so they form back to what their original shape is?

Granted, I'd be a bit nervous to do that on a $400+ figure but it could be an easy enough fix, so long as they weren't actually molded incorrectly. Might be worth a shot.
