Hydeous, yes, HotToys made them too tight. They are pretty wide in the movie.
And even on the default body it looks like freaking 80's jeans. ><

Jokes & Bats, I would be happy to see Bane's head on this body, please. Both front and side shots.

Those pants looks like leggings with a blow out crotch area.

That's an unflattering pic, they can look better than that but are definitely too tight.

Just snagged some replacement ones!

There are loads unless you want to buy it directly from a seller from Hong Kong which will be the quickest. Then there is SSC for the main USA distribution (and also direct sales to the UK and other territories - my personally preferred option), then all the other online US based esellers, then the UK based ones...which I suspect will all say about the same date.

Thanks!

I was actually hoping somebody could give me different UK options other than SS or forbidden planet. I don't want to order from SS as it's the main US distributer not the UK. I prefer using UK distributors because of cost and time etc

I just noticed a fair few people getting theres already, some of the members are from the UK i was just curious as to were they purchased theres from and if anybody knew any UK sellers/suppliers with the figure either in hand or with a pre-order for a delivery date soon.

Forbidden planet has a pre-order up with an expected delivery date of 03/05, which is just under 4 months away. I don't want to wait that long haha but if it's the only way then that's fine

I got mine from eBay seller guobei11 from Hong Kong when his pre-order was at a reasonable price about 3 weeks ago. I get most my HT's from ebay. Sure it's never an official distributor but they mark the parcel as a gift with a low value to avoid customs fees upon UK entry. In my opinion the positives (no customs fee, getting it early) outweigh the negatives (no official replacement from HT if item is faulty).

It should make no difference. If you find one in the .com version and put it in your 'watch list' it will be there if you go to .co.uk version but with prices automatically converted to U.K. £'s!

So, on the basis of 'every little helps'....RESULT!!!

That Arnie body's neck is way too long for Bane though.

I didn't push the head all the way down - and I've swapped it for the Bane neck peg. It's all good now.

Anyone taken any pics of him carrying Batman (DX12) just before he breaks his back ?

Some HK blogger did, when Bane was out a few weeks ago. Looks amazing, and that's the pose I'm going for, for 1 of my Bane actually.

I know that. Just want to see as many of those as I can before do the same as it was planned.

Both bodies are great - the trousers are a tight fit on the Arnold body but it's worth it for the boss pose.

I'll post more for you when I get the chance.
