Fixed :lecture

IMO they havent really milked the Batman license to its potential. There are lots of guys Im sure they are thinking of doing eg. Liam Neeson as Ra's Al Ghul as the next expo 'exclusive', just a speculation seeing their trend of making figures from the Batman Begins movie as 'exclusives'

Cant wait for TDKR figures!

Gordon and Ra's are overdue
 
Thank you Jayvee.
I swapped the body cause initially, I slightly...and I do mean slightly favor the OC body cause of the sheen.
I'll be honest though, I may swap the body back to the Toyfair version cause the more I compare the two, I'm starting to favor the Toyfair. Since the rubber is thinner, it doesnt hug the truetype body like the OC giving it a more bulkier look. One of the mods done to the OC was stuff it with cotton to give it bulk, this is not necessary for the Toyfair body cause it looks bulkier. I'm just dreading swapping the body again cause I'm one of those people that would futz the hell out of the figure for hours til I get that pose that I like, lol.

I see. Yeah, for me I also favor the new bulkier body cause it allows more room for articulation unlike the OC. :monkey1

With lforigno's awesome cape! Need the clips and the correct belt now. Does anyone else have trouble with making the cowl sit firm/connected with the suit without any gaps? Tried a lot but not able to get it right.

Tried Maglor's epic pose, but failed miserably : p

Why didn't you just use the pegs off the stock cape? I did it for mine and it looks great.
 
Well, I got the figure without the cape. Actually I bought whatever I wanted to buy and not the complete figure. So now trying to get hold of the clips/cape at a 'reasonable' price. I am more concerned about the gap between the cowl and the suit, dunno what am I missing.
 
I use the pegs on mine as well as stuff some of the cloth inside the neck area... maybe you are stuffing too much inside

I think someone mentioned that they were using the wrong neck peg, thus creating the gap. They were using the flesh colored neck intended for the BW head instead of using the black one for the cowled head.
 
I have this figure reserved through flexpay, though I'm going to try to pay if off next week so I don't have to wait 2.5 months to get it.

I don't know if this has been discussed yet, since this is my first post here, but does anyone have or know how to build the hand device Batman used at the beginning of TDK for this figure? I kind of want one.

In fact, I did not stuff the cape at all in the neck, so maybe its because of that :monkey3

Yeah, I read that post. However, I am using the black neck only, so :dunno Will try to workaround with the cape a bit more. Thx for the suggestions guys :)

Do you mean the pneumatic mangler?.. It were for sold as part of the OC. You can find it on eBay:

If you want to build it by your own, I have not idea how to do it.

Where'd the armor come from? Is that ironcrosshunters? Or did you do it yourself?

Ask psung4ever. I got the bash from him and tweaked it a bit more.... I believe he created those pieces. He's also missing one blade on one of his gauntlets. I gotta figure out how to replace that.
