Hot Toys 1/6th scale BATMAN (Original Suit) Photo thread

[MaulFan]

I'm not digging the HT head on Takara body. It looks too big for that body.

I actually like it better on the Tak body, makes it look smaller and more Bale sized, on a TT it makes the figure look way too big.

No defects with the suit yet Magnuz? since you do a lot of poses with yours... no stretch marks or weird effects on it. Like inner bend part of the elbow.

Can those harnesses be used on the Original Costume Batman? If possible, then, it would make a great pre-Batman BW. And might make me buy the Dark Knight Costume Batman

Out of interest, being able to use the Tak harness on HT Original Bats would make you buy DK ver why?

I imagine it would be a snug fit, if fit at all, on the HT OC. Perhaps with some snips and amendments to the harness.

Nothing that i've found yet. The crotch flap pouches when he's crouched but it stays glued and hasn't seperated. The only thing thats even considered as effects would be the knee pads slight seperation at the top and bottom edges from the extreme knee bends but they are still well in place in the middle so it doesnt bother me, you can't see it anyway more often than not.

As for his elbows i've had no problem, the sculpt of the suit already puts wrinkles there but hasn't had any permanent effects.

Though i'll say nothing i do is for extended periods of time, your looking at 10 to 30 minutes most sitting in an extreme pose, maybe if left displayed in one it might have effects but everyday posing isn't going to do anything as long as your careful.

Ya, I wouldn't suggest certain poses long term, but if you're just having some photo fun, go wild.

I know I'm not the first and I'm sure I wont be the last but I have a broken hand peg for my Batman, does anyone know where I can get a replacement? I have sent two emails Hot Toys and they still have not responded. I've glanced at Ebay but I don't see any there. Help?

 

[vodoun]

Did you send them a photo of the broken peg and some form of a receipt for proof of purchase?

 

[Hydeous]

Hot toys have yet to make a division to handle these type of things.

Your best bet would be ebay. They pop out there more often than you think. Just check back often.

A method for anyone removing the clips to replace the cape with a custom cape : remove the neck post, slightly bend the rubber to expose the disk on the inside of the suit & you will see the tip of the clip post in the middle of the disk. Find a flat tiped cylinder like object slightly smaller than the size of the post tip & gently use that object to push the post through. The post & clip should pop right out, just be very careful & you shouldn't have any problems. Please do not try to just pull the clips out because they will most likely break unless you're extremely lucky.I tried twisting & pulling my clips out, the first 1 came right out, but the 2nd 1 broke so I used the method described above to remove the broken post & it popped out no problem. I wish I would have done this in the 1st place, I wouldn't have broken a clip. Luckily I used Bondini super glue gel & it worked on the clip.
