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

[Voorhees27]

Just take some new photos and hope you guys like these!

I swear to God I thought this was a promo shot for the actual movie and then I read further to where you typed that you just took these pictures! WOW! Excellent lighting and photography bro, very very well done, the box is an awesome touch too, well done!

Man, I gotta stop coming into this thread! Anyone want a Takara?

 

[Rugby1970]

Thanks All! This figure is really excellent!
Hope all of you get it sooner and take more photos!

Awesome pictures!! Congrats! Really getting me stoked for this figure.

Joo's pics are making me rethink not getting this. That's the most realistic looking BB sculpt out there.

 

[Les Walker]

God in Heaven!
I didn't get the whole new HT BB style figure, but I am getting the new cowl for my original BB HT fig, so I am stoked that he will look a bit better. And thanks to your fantastic shots Joo, I am very excited about it!

I notice that BBTS has the caucasian and asian TrueType bodies in stock now for $30.

 

[Mr. Fusion]

Thanks darren, VERY NICE.

Unfortunately for the suit, Lucius Fox might not approve.

"Three-buttons is a little nineties, Mr. Wayne"

And because of that, I'm looking out for two-button suits now but there aren't any! Think the 2-in-1 Superman VT has a 2 button suit (I have it but I need to recheck) but the colour just isn't something Bruce Wayne would wear, or would he?

Still, a small nit I'm picking. It really shouldn't matter

If you're still looking, there's the Agent Smith suit. I bought two of them through eBay for my James Bond figures. Here's one:1/6 Scale 12" CUSTOM Matrix"Agent Smith" Black Suit Set

Oh, and Icruise, great shots! I really wish I'd ordered one of these too.

The only problem with the Agent Smith Suit set is that it is a little tight in the shoulders for a Hot Toys body.

I know it was mentioned that DC Direct will be importing these but I was checking Hot Toys site and noticed that the original suit Batman, Tumbler and Batpod will not be imported. Just TDK Batman and Joker and the 2 Busts will be. Is this true? Sorry if this was already brought up.

No, DCD will be the only ones officially importing. I imagine that it will encompass both films.

 

[carbo-fation]

I cannot wait!!!!!! Joo's pictures are too much..... Must.Be.Patient.:emperor

But will they be importing the original suit Batman, Tumbler and Batpod? Because on their site it states this (FOR SALE IN HONG KONG & JAPAN ONLY) And for DTK batman and Joker it states this FOR SALE IN HONG KONG, JAPAN & US ONLY-This item will be imported into the US by DC DIRECT.Please contact your local retailer in mid-end August for further information! Check each figure and see what it states.

Darklord Dave posted in another thread that it he spoke to a DC rep, and they have planned to import TDK Bats and Joker, but if the interest is there, they may import more. I am not gonna chance it, and have pre-ordered through toys2.net, and I've been happy with them in the past.

 

[JGouse0498]

That would be great if they are importing the busts along with TDK Batman. I have the first two figures on order from Toys2 with the $$ set aside, but I don't have it yet for TDK Batman. If I have to cancel TDK from Toys2, at least I know I'll have another shot at it, and hopefully I'll be able to grab those busts at year's end.

 

[Fives]

is there any other place besides monkey depot to get a suit to customize a bruce wayne?

 

[darthCipan]

I think this is Hot toys best effort so far on the Batman. They are goin all out with Batman, whats with the batmobile and batpod along the way. How's the articulation on the fig guys? Still limited by the suit?

 

[icruise]

The rubber is very soft, so I don't think it limits articulation that much. However, some poses will make the suit bunch up or otherwise look bad, so it is limited in that sense.

 

[darthCipan]

Yeah, I think the articulation of the previous batman begins fig by hot toys was hampered somewhat by the stiff rubber suit.

 

[MedievaL]

Does the rubber suit attract dust..etc, like the takara version?

 

[icruise]

Yes, it does seem to attract little particles. Probably unavoidable with this kind of suit.

Invest in scotch tape and you're all good.
