Hot toys Batman Begins Toyfair exclusive Damage Report!

[The Ternes]

Here is the best picture I could get of the error on my Bruce head. I think they got some of the gloss paint that they use on the eyes on the forehead by mistake. In the right light it is reflective. It is not a paint rub.

That's not a paint rub, that's realism! Bruce is out there on the mean streets of Gotham! He's gotta sweat sometime! Or he forgot to wash his face. I say kudos to HT for representing the gritty realism that we've come to expect from the Nolanverse.

- Left and/or Right foot/boot socket damage (the boot doesn't snap and fit into the leg)

- Dents and other deformities with the rubber suit

- Paint rubs on the headsculpts (mostly shiny spots)

- Broken true type limbs (my left leg snapped at the knee)

Thanks DiFabs!

Again, so sorry to hear this on your Batman. How's the replacement btw? Any luck?

I see an overexposed picture with flash reflections.

This one cluster____ of a thread.
Sorry to all you guys that got defective ones. Somehow I got lucky.

Sorry but I don't see anything in that pic that would warrant refund or replacement. Yes if something is broken or deformed then it should be addressed but all of these other things are really looking like petty nit-picks.

Mine.

Ankle came broken I dont get how QC shipped it like that must not have used QC at all.

 

[Boba Ben]

You know, after all of these reports I inspected the Batman more closely and he does have an indentation on right side of his stomach. Doesn't seem worth sending it back for that. Ankles aren't broken or anything.

 

[jayveeeusebio]

Mine.

Planning to replace that COSMOSTRAX?

Good luck. Keep us updated.

Mine.

Mine has that 'issue' too. I am guessing most or all of them are like this?

 

[TheFiend]

Well what the hell is it? Gloss paint? Its so odd that one figure has so many different problems. WTF

 

[COSMOSTARX]

Seems like the plastic that wrapped the head messed it up maybe.

 

[The Ternes]

Still waiting to hear back from SS on mine too. Hopefully I'll have heard by Tuesday.

If you look at the head through an electron microscope you'll see that Kojun sculpted some perspiration under the shiny patch.

No maybe, without a doubt

Is the chance of getting a broken ankle more than 50%, im just surprised by how a lot of people are getting defects while other sites, especially SS's, show a lot of positive reviews with no mention of the ankle

 

[jayveeeusebio]

especially SS's, show a lot of positive reviews with no mention of the ankle

Of course, they'll only post positive comments and hide a lot of negative comments re: the QC of this figure.

Wow, always had a good impression of SS whenever I bought their star wars stuff

Im starting to think they're sabotaging HT products
