Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

Wow some of the best pics ive seen of this guy, Mr EcKo :clap:clap:clap

Cant wait to pick this fig up.
 
Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

I've been getting that vibe for a while now, still don't got mine yet but this figure may be the most photorealistic hot toys figure made to date:hi5:

from looking at the pics I would rate this figure with some of the best imo hot toy ever produced like t1 t800 and reeves superman:clap

Congrats Mike on and awesome figure!!!

He really is amazing. The 2 things that make him so realistic are the eyes and a lack of hair. His eyes are spot on and intense. Imagine if he had PERS. it would be a disaster. :gah: Hair sometimes kills realism too. His head with the veins looks awesome.

:exactly::exactly::exactly: You nailed it sir:hi5:

The excellent work on the cut and sew just adds to the realism, Bane may not bring alot of accessoires but when a figure is done this well....it just does'nt matter:)

I could only find one advance arm but it'll still work to show how it's done.

Open the torso from the side. Easily peels off but still handle with care. You don't wanna rip the body.

Pull the torso muscle off. Comes off like a shell.

Unscrew the back of the body. You'll need a phillips screwdriver. There's three screws that need to be removed.

Should look like this with the back piece removed. Remove the arms.

Here's where the real modding begins. As you can see, the advanced arms have a bigger round peg. That peg needs to be either sanded or cut to the size of the muscle arms to fit back into the muscle body's inner socket.

Once you get them in place, just close it back up. They're a little tricky and might fall out. It's simple to get it shut again though.

Put the torso muscle back on and glue it shut. Don't add too much glue. Just in case you wanna undo the whole mod. :exactly:

Here's the finished body with the arms.

Hope this helps. :wave


Bumping this for a buddy.

Bumping this for a buddy.

Would non-muscular arms work? Obviously it'd look wrong without the jacket, but I want to display him with the jacket doing "the boss" pose. And if I ever went back to the sewer look, I could just switch arms again. I like the stock arms for that look more than the exposed joints on the TTM20.

EDIT - Who woulda thought an extra pair of arms would have been such a satisfactory accessory?

I think it would be hard to use non muscular arms for the coatless boss pose. It just doesn't look right unfortunately. That's my opinion, of course.

Come oooon UPS man! Where are you?!

same here....waiting on my UPS guy....he's so unpredictable it's ridiculous....yesterday he was here right at 3:45....today? No where to be seen....but on a Friday He's never later than 3:00....wonder why?
 
Instead of changing the whole arms... Wouldn't it be possible to just put the upper silicone torsocover on the DX10 body????!!!
 
Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

I tried putting the sweater under the vest and the coat on. I could barely move his arms with everything on so I took the sweater off again. Also the straps to take off his vest can be a pain to put back through the buckles.

I used thin pliers to get the straps back into the kidney belt. Heh, just takes a bit of patience.
 
Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

Someone should do this pose with the DX12 base as the steps Batman stands on with Bane's back to the camera walking towards Batman. Could be a cool shot.

This is also my favorite shot in the movie.

Amazing scene- and to think that was shot in 90 plus degree heat that summer in Pittsburgh.....wow.

Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

Does the whole rubber piece just come off though? It's not glued? If I had the ttm20 I'd be down to be the guinea pig but I don't wanna mess with my bane until I got the secondary body.

Who's gonna try it first lol.
