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

Sorry Fiend, I'm not feeling that body the veins popping out the different colors between the arms and hands.
Loss of blood? Lol
Sorry brother

The veins are ridiculous. The color doesn't bother me. I have mixed feelings on the body though but not for the reasons you mentioned. I like this more than the double joint arm swap though. I hate that look. There just isn't body that satisfies for this figure it seems. I think I might just stick with the stock body and have to say **** the boss pose.

The stock body is great. But like you said, no boss pose.

That's exactly what I've resigned myself to.

According to one of the extras on the TDKR blu ray, they wanted Bane to have the build of a circus strongman, not a body builder. The stock body arms are perfect in that capacity. Unfortunately that means no "Boss".

if the veins bother you do the Boss pose with the jacket on

I think the stick body is a high quality body from HT but they could have done more for the price point. If I bought this figure for around $145-$150 I wouldn't have had half the nit picks I had.

And Im glad they went that route. I never really liked that tiny waist and massive upper body look. Kinda reminds me of a male model. No offense to anyone.

The veins are silly but I can live with them. The reason I bought this body is to achieve any look and pose I wanted that I thought would look good. As far as the difference in skin tone, the camera must be doing something because the skin is damn near identical in person. I've seen far worse on other kit bashes. One thing I will say about this body is that it has the tightest joints I've ever seen on any body I've ever had.

Much prefer this body over the HT one - the joints at the elbows and at the shoulders are awful to look at on the HT one and make it lose realism/can cause it to look more like a toy.

The CM body is a great alternative I'd rather have those veins than joints. Plus - stuff the arms full of cotton wool and it bulks him out and can flatten the veins.

Nice! I've been doing the same thing. Did you make your own template or use an existing cape and trace it?

Yeah, I was planning on getting him either way, this was just a bit more surprising than expected.

The stock body is great. But like you said, no boss pose.

I have come to accept this as well.

Was driving in from out of town and Picked up the TTM20 Advanced muscular body. Wanted to give the body swap a shot so I can get the boss pose.

No way the pants were gonna go on. I don't trust myself to do an arm swap mod, so i'll just stick to the stock body. Will have to just pick a different pose.

I put the TTM20 up in the sale thread if anyone is interested.

@ cokebabies Didn't you sell most of your collection and got it down to 2 or 3 figures or something?
You bought this and Joker. Rebuilding?

I can customize you some nice baggy DID pants. Dye them the correct color and add Bane knee pads.

Pm me if interested

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

I'm going to need baggy pants, I just know the stock one's are going to annoy the hell out of me.

I really want two Bane's so I can have one displayed in his coat and the other with just vest in the boss pose. So many Bane's needed, so little money *sigh*
