You are RIGHT- NEVER noticed that before!!!!!!! We need the clear cases that go over them, too.

^^Thats funny. Anyway has anyone been able to get that gloss paint or smudge off the Bale head for those that have it? Is SS going to do anything about it?

Yep. The weird part is that they used that same design for non Batman related figures.

I dig your blog! Nice layout, very clean design. And excellent photos! I gotta admit, the 1/1 Queen Facehugger even creeps ME out.

Very well done!.

Just wanted to share with you my new blog. I needed an online "photo book", so I decided to start a little photo blog about my recent addition. Starting out with the Batman figure:

yes they are glossier in bb. Ht missed that detail but fixable- alittle gloss coat and you are set...if it doesn't melt it!!!

yeah, if you google batman begins or batman begins batsuit, there are several pics that show the gauntlets are glossy...i hear ya though, i didn't believe it either until i checked for myself

their semi glossy

Thanks guys! Just did that dsokyra spindrift, didn't know that applying gloss to the gauntlets will/may melt them

In the one below they do look gloosy; however, as Ecko said it maybe semi glossy. The glossiness could be due to lighting effects, in fact the boots look semi glossy too, the reflection on the tip of his right boot looks as if he has Cherry Blossomed them! :

I don't know if I've seen this mentioned, and didn't see anything after scanning a bunch of pages.

Is the right elbow joint an issue for other people? When I bend the arm, it goes right back to straight. I thought this could be due to the suit, but the left arm doesn't have this problem.

At least this isn't a huge issue for me, since I'm probably going to steal one of Maglor's "standing there like a badass" poses.

The Bat emblem and his boots also look a little more glossy then the suit.

That pic shows how right Takara got the shape of the gauntlets.

Commtech said when he remove the suit it fix that problem. Someone else also had that problem and just pulled the sleeve up and the arm was fine. Sound like it's binding some how.

May not be glossy in its own right, but if you compare the emblem with the suit, it does look 'glossy.'

guess its time to bust out the sharpie

I'll try futzing the arm, but I don't trust myself to remove the suit.

Really, when the lforigno cape and replacement boot comes in, I'm going to set him in a nice, static pose and be done with this figure.

agreed. different material perhaps.

Yeah emblem is slightly semi gloss or different material(after all Bruce ADDED the emblem after first night out..)

 

[toylion]

agreed. different material perhaps.

Or they just wanted it to stand out and put something on the emblem.
