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

Argh, I'd love to get a second one, but I just can't justify it for my display, without an alternate headsculpt. The options for clothing are just too similar otherwise - not enough to set them apart.

How so! There are so many diff Banes you can make without looking too similar to each other.

But they're all really minor variations of one another.

I have several Jokers, but they're all VERY different. In addition to each having a different headsculpt, they have very different outfits - clown outfit, nurse outfit, police officer outfit, bank robber outfit, etc.

With Bane, it's all the same head. And pretty much all the display options you've got are variations of how much clothing he's wearing - with or without the sweater, with or without the coat, with or without the vest. Not a HUGE difference.

Don't get me wrong - if I had infinite space AND infinite money, I'd buy a half dozen of them, because then, why the hell not? But I don't so, I've got to have more of a difference to justify more than one, given that both space and money are limited..

OMG. Come to think of it, you're right...

I would, if I were you.

The nice thing about BBTS is it would also ship right away, albeit at a slight markup.

You might also check around in your local area if any shops carry Hot Toys. One of my local shops has two of them right now.

YOu know it would have been a hell of a lot easier if they just put snaps on the cuffs of the coat sleeves

You're absolutely right about that. After trying to get the wrist guard on with the coat for the better part of an afternoon, I just gave up and put the coat on without it.

It's not that bad... put the cuff and hand on the arm, and slide that through the coat sleeve. Trying to get the cuff on after the arm is in the sleeve will be pretty much impossible.

Same here.

Did that too but it's still a lot of twisting and futzing. One button on that sleeve would have made the most sense.

So what's the recipe for dying the camo pants? I've dyed plenty but never had to mix things to come up with a specific color.
