Still doing the full arm swap? It was suggested that the torso cover swap onto the TTM-20 would be easier.

To do the boss pose? I don't see how that would make a difference.

Under some light, the mask looks really blue. Is that accurate? I just got him today and it looks so much better in hand.

You would already have the articulated arms and would only be applying the torso with scar to the TTM-20.

he's so dang cool. and i have to add, he's the absolute antithesis of the dx12, which is, unfortunately, the most unphotogenic thing ever.

bane, on the other hand, can't seem to take a bad picture even despite bad lighting and a lame camera.

Boy are they tight!! Hipster Bane!...just my opinion...but he really does need baggy pants!

I started taking pics but got frustrated and then didn't care about pics. Shortrounds is way better but here's my half *** tutorial.

Peel this off by heating and carefully ripping the seam.

Looks like this when done. There's glue in the 'boxes' on the chest and back. Be careful.

Unscrew the back and you'll have this. Then remove the arms.

Match the arm pegs and you're good. Top is the double jointed arms, bottom is the Bane arms.

Then you'll be able to do this.

thank you. now that swapping the torso has come to light i may try that.
 
Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

What to do...I have the TTM20 with torso off...and bane Body ready for swap...should I just swap torso? Probably save me from sanding down peg
 
Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

pajji let me know what you do. I got a ttm20 coming and I'm tryna decide arm swap or torso swap or rubber suit swap lol.

Will do...imma try rubber suit swap first...since both need to be removed first anyways...if it looks good then no more will be done :pray:
 
Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

Is the Trialmaster jacket good quality, and I won't have to worry about it staining my Bane's body or anything? It's expensive, but I thought that was probably Bane's coolest look in the movie so I was considering getting it. All these pics with it look amazing as well.

Thanks! :)
