So which custom outfit are people more likely to do with this Unmasked BW sculpt















*whispers* im in talks with topo and it looks like they're interested in the ballroom fit he wears, but I originally asked if they could do the turtleneck suit he wears when the bat symbol shines on him. they said it was too simple of a design but I asked if they could throw the turtleneck in as a bonus so people can just buy their standard suit and make that look
 
Looks fantastic. Will not miss out this time.

The sculpt is so much better on display. The promo pics washed out all the details on it.

To me, the likeness is 100% there. It's an 8.5/10 sculpt that could be a very good 9. But it has too much hair, Keaton hair was pretty darn thin in Returns.
I think the hair is a lot of it. Definitely needs to be a bit more receded hairline
 
His hair was thicker in ‘89 than Returns so the new HT sculpt would more accurately reflect the first film if you want a Bruce Wayne kit bash.

But seriously, this is one instance where I have to ask, do we really want movie accuracy? Look at his hair in this scene, do you want that on your shelf? Bless him, but his hair and hair texture isn’t ideal and by ‘92 it was thinned to oblivion making that hair texture impossible to accurately sculpt.
 
Dang. I just want the Bruce Wayne head. :lol Looks miles better in that display photo.

Don’t feel any need to buy the whole figure as I’m fine with the original Returns release, but I may try and scoop that up parted out later.
 
Here are some photos from a real camera.



That’s crazy good. Wow. It would be awesome if Hot Toys was saving their Batcave Command Center they showed off a while ago to release it bundled with a full turtleneck Bruce Wayne, complete with this sculpt.

Yeah, my only hesitation for ordering this figure was whether that ‘89 Batcomputer is ever still coming, and if It’d be offered with some ‘89 figures. But I don’t know where I would have put that computer anyhow.

My biggest complaint isn’t
with the Keaton sculpt, but the ripped cowl.

Where did they get their reference for it?
It should come up to cover his left ear.
I also wish it hugged his neck and jaw more accurately instead of incasing it completely. Jaw should protrude, far too much of a gap around the sculpt. While not originally nailing it, it was a better fit on the 1.0. These are the types of changes I’d like to see, not stylistic changes.
 
I'm guessing it's like that to avoid paint rubbing off the face sculpt if it comes into contact with the cowl piece. You can see from a more top down angle that the head doesn't actually touch the cowl.

I wouldn’t use that as reference, as it isn’t on a body therefore everything may not be sitting correctly. In the promo photos it hugs a lot closer to the sculpt but still not entirely accurate. Sitting on that display, the cowl sits lower than the sculpt does, on a body it pushes the cowl up to the chin.

They just reused the broken cowl of the 1.0. That's why it doesn't fit this new sculpt as well
